What tire shop did you use?
I went to my Discount, bought them all lunch and told them I want 2 guys on my wheels with gloves on. They did exactly what I wanted them to do. Install went smooth.

Thanks for the reply!

I've sworn off Discount Tire (the one on Cinco messed up 2 sets of OEM wheels on my last car and the one near Katy Mills tried to replace a sport tire that got destroyed and covered by road hazard with a touring tire telling me it was the "new, improved" version cause they obviously didn't have the tire I needed).

I'm gonna try the Elite Auto off Pin Oak & Katy Mills. I bought my tires from Tire Rack and they were one of the preferred installers, reviews look good. Going Saturday morning, so will bring a couple dozen kolaches (thanks for the tip!).

Yea, I'm not a fan of Discount in general, but they know me up in there, so they know how to handle my cars. They did my Z06, Maserati, and GTR so. They know. haha. I only go to that one on Cinco since they know me up in there. Plus, they even let me watch install the wheels so.

They have the machines to do high end wheels, it's the operator.

Post up pics when you get your wheels on!

Yes, always bring bfast or lunch for the staff. Watch how they treat you from now on. I do that everywhere I go. Now, every time I shop someplace, I get the treatment. It don't cost but a few bux. I think it was like $80 to feed the whole staff at Discount so. Of course they are going to let me call the shots. haha

You'd be surprised how far a nice gesture gets you. Every time I get my car tuned, I buy Matt and his shop lunch. They appreciate it and for that one day, they don't have to spend their own money on food. Of course, Matt gives me free dyno tunes now. I'm not saying that is the reason why, but I'm one of those easy customers. Treat me right and don't fuk around and I'll pay top $. Anyhow, good luck man. Post pics up.

Got my wheels installed yesterday - great guys at Elite Auto off Pin Oak, very nice and knowledgeable! Picked up some breakfast tacos and drinks before my 8am appointment, and they were very appreciative - least I could do since they held my tires for 6 months after my initial wheel order went to crap... all's well that ends well tho!
