Scratched rim and sliced tire - chain tire shop - Advice

Hi Guys

A couple of thousand miles ago I got new 275's in the rear for my car. Continentals....

I got a nail in the tire and got a leak.

I removed the wheel, took it to the tire shop, got it patched, and they returned it with a scratch in the paint, and the machine sliced the inner side of the tire (where it seats with the rim.)

When I got home to get it installed, I saw all that crap they did, and plus the weights were glued on top of dirt and came off.

I made a complaint with corporate already, how lucky will I be with this?
Any advice to get the tire and rim replaced with this people?

Kind of tough to want them to provide a new tire, repair a wheel etc after they did that the first time. Take it in to them and be cool and calm and show them the problem(s).

Update:

They clear coated the rim, that got rid of the scratch.
They also installed a new Continental 275/35/20.

I'm impressed they didn't even argue. Maybe the call to corporate did it.
