FYI: don't go to Tire Kingdom on Tuscawilla Road
went to the Tire Kingdom "Tuskawilla Road" store, located next to discount auto next to k-mart at the intersection of Red Bug and Tuscawilla road to get my rotors turned. as we sat outside waiting for the guy to finish we saw some younger mechanic dude reving the **** out of customers cars and even peeling out in one that we saw, a huge van that less than 15 seconds after he peeled out he got out and walked inside to the lady who had no clue and gave her the keys.
just a heads up for people in that area...

Yeah... they are major dicks... They tired to rip me off on tires before and other people I know as well. One time I wanted to have my almost new tire patched and they said it couldn't be fixed. It was a damn nail.... I called BS and left....

Don't go to the firestone on coloniol, in front of the old walmart-now bowling alley.
I asked them to roate my tires and check out my rear suspension breifly since I jsut did my rear end swap to see if theynoticed anything wrong.
charged me $70 for them to check it out, I was cool with that, and charged me $25 for tire rotation. Thing is I had a donut in the left rear, a continental in the fornt left, a Cooper on the front right, and a continental on the right rear.
It was blatantly obvious he didn't touch my wheels, i said, uhm you didn't rotate my tires, guy says, yes he did I said no oyu didn't I jsut spent abotu 8 hours under my car in the last few days and I know where my tires were, you can tell by the wear on the outside of the fornts, the different brands, and one of the wheels is a donut. He still said he replaced them, I said fine take my $25, notice i need new tires? never getting them form you, never comning here again, and telling everyone I know not to come here, and told every customer what happened as they came in for the next 5-10 min. till the guy said he was going to call the cops.
don't people know car guys are very much into brand loyalty, as soon as you get burned, they will do everything they car to nto help you.
