People at places like that are not proffessionals, and they dont really care how its done because it is not their car anyway.

ORIGINAL: mill$civic

and they lifted a BWM and the guy kicked the rim off!!! i landed right on the front, and i was like WTF
I've done that before, some times those rims are really stuck on there and you need a crap load of force to get them off. There is something wrong when that is the first thing that is tried. If i ever have to kick a tire off a car, its b/c i've tried everything else. I've only done it maybe a handful of times however.

dito... ive had to kick em off before pleanty of times!
last two times i took the rims off my civic i had to punt kick them off the drum!
just put your back to the car and give it a nice back kick on the suckers rubber... no damage! just dont pull your foot back real quick so the rim falls off on the floor!



hell it can be alot worse!!!!!!!!!!
with my dads big @ss motor home we had to beat on the wheels afew times with a big @ss sledge hammer trying to break them loose from the drums!!!!!!!
STILL took quite a while to get those suckers off!!!!!!!!!!

that doesnt concern me any. just as long as they dont let the rims fall on the floor on thier face scratchen em up!

Yeah, my point was that the service sucked one. They've got good prices, but obviously they don't give a crap about their customers. I ended up taking my car into the ghetto and got a used tire at a tire place I've dealt with before. They weren't exactly gentle, but these are my stock steelies with some busted plastic hubs on them. Plus, the tire they put on is nearly new, still has lots of tread...only 25 bucks!

I waited at Wal-Mart w/ a buddy for 2.5 hours...my car is finally up for the oil change, Nice(yeah right) of course there was a problem. They couldn't change my oil because my drain plug wasn't stock!!!! NO LIE, I will never spend another dime at Wal-Mart...

Anyway, what did people eat for dinner last night, lol

I would never go to walmart for an oil change. I have honestly NEVER paid to have my oil changed. NEVER. I kinda like doing it myself. Gives me an excuse to get dirty, and the bitches love me when im all greasy, and im not talking about my natural italian greasyness.............lol thats damn funny and u know it! I can bash on Itals cuz I am 1.











If youre not Italian and you bash on us, I will bash you and put you 6 feet under! LOL!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
