If it matters, the wheels were 245 /45 /19.

Of course it matters. That was a critical piece of information.

Anyway, how would you guys have handled this issue? I managed to get the tire dust off of the headliner after using some ethyl alcohol (not isopropyl) and 3 hours of my time. Should I have gotten the entire amount of money?

Not only that, I would have firebombed the place in the middle of the night. Incompetence cannot be tolerated. It's why this country is going to Hell.

So when exactly are they responsible? They dirtied the headliner removing the wheels from the car. How about if I remove the wheels from the car for them and when they put the other wheels back into the car, they dirty the car as well? They didn't put any bags over the wheels when they did the swap.


BTW the wheels were not dirty, they simply got tire dust onto the interior of the car. They literally rubbed the tire against the interior.

What the hell! Why are you still complaining about this? You cleaned the headliner already and you got $30 back so just let it go.

you have your own wheel balancer?

I can see why they did that. Wheels are heavy, you can hurt your back moving them. But, that is still unprofessional and they should at least pay for someone to clean it off

Nah, torque it in a criss cross pattern, should be close enough. They kind of fall into place pretty firmly once you get them on though. I think when you go for an alignment it's not the wheels they adjust, but the part the wheels attach to.

I am just bothered that you people here act like you wouldn't care if people did a sloppy job or shit on the OP when they complain about crappy customer service.

This is exactly why we can't have nice things. Stop ruining stuff.

Before I got my extra set of tires and rims, I went to Muffler City. They would bag the tires in plastic trashbags before putting them back in the car.

He put the rims in his car though and the installer made the dirty mark on his interior while taking them out of his car. I've had installers give me back wheels and they always put them in plastic bags as well before putting them in my car.

OP, the manager gave you $30 to go away. You are wrong. It is not debatable.
