I feel you.
She was a virgin prior to discount tire replacing my OEMs last fall. I WILL NEVER GO TO ANOTHER MAJOR CHAIN like them. I learned from another member to remove the weights yourself and bring them the wheels to mount new tires. Yes. Pain in the ass but you don't have to worry about them scraping the shit out of them to remove the weights or sweat bullets while they jack up your car in the wrong spot. Plenty of horror story's about buckled fenders, cars falling off lifts/Jack's, doors being damaged.
Most of us are shy of having panic attacks at dealers and tire shops.
You're feelings are warranted .
