right

you are now qualified to work at tire barn.

in the local tire barn they have great prices, but their tire machine apparently sucks. i had them balance the tires on my 500sec four times before i finally gave up. i decided their machine was off. i told the mgr and he just said "everyone else thinks it is fine".

ok so i just dont go there any more.

last set i had balanced at sears. only took them twice and the second time it was good. first guy was balancing the wrong side first. dont ask why it matters, i dont understand it or remember which side had to be done first.

i have also had them done at the dealer. it was good. and they use those cool spring loaded weights.
