subiemech85 Posted May 5, 2010 Author Share Posted May 5, 2010 tires mounted, picked them up today, unloaded onto trailer, look at bill, CHARGED FOR "MOUNTING", notice tires are not balanced, take bill back to store, ask why was charged for "MOUNTING", "MOUNTING" is code for "BALANCE", wonder why not balanced, explain that I did NOT see any weights , go back home and load tires into car again to take them back to be balanced, after balancing they have weights - imagine that , take tires back and unload on trailer, admire the newly installed weights , record DOT code, 2 from Brazil, 2 from OK. at least it's a friendly small town tire store, worked directly with the "assistant manager" I kept the one "good" tire I took in, so now I have a spare for the spare paid CA$H 185-70/14 winterfire 4 * $ 39 "MOUNTING" 4 * 10 valve stems 4 * 2.25 tire disposal 3 * 2.5 sales tax 14.88 total $227.38 pics later once installed just a teaser will most likely be installing while doing brake work Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
