| - Scam artists.
So im a chick. No i dont know a lot about cars. Yes i was in a huge pinch. Thats no reason to take advantage of a person in a crappy situation.
I had a blow out on thanksgiving of all days and my spare has seen better days. I got towed to these guys on a friend's reccomendation and because they are close to my home. I figured getting a tire anywhere else on black friday of all days would be a pain and I would never make it to work that night.
First they wanted 120. for one tire. I told the guy "you know what, ill find a ride and look around, thanks" and the guy told me "hey no worries, we price match" and i assume now pretended to look up other stores and told me wal-mart, big-o, pep boys, etc were all at the same price or higher. Being the holidays, i couldnt afford that much right then and there, so the guy says "hey, we have used tires". I thought great, that will last me at least until my next check and I can shop around in the meantime.
He goes to the garage and comes back, and says "well we have a tire thats a different size than your others, so that will work fine". I didnt know it was WAY smaller and doing that wears out your other tires quicker than butter melts on a phoenix sidewalk in august.
So now i need all my tires replaced, my alignment fixed, and you know what? Wal-mart and Checkers wouldve been half the price.
F these guys.
