lol ^. So lets try adding a cat to our smoking habbits.

 

where does everyone get there tires mounted and balanced in lincoln?? sears and a few other places i called wants 20 bucks a tire, theres got to be places cheaper than that

 

I usually get them done the same place I buy them from and can work out some kinda package deal. I know Anderson does them can't remember what they charge, but I do know that anytime I need an alignment I will be going back to them. It held great from the factory but when I had a tire shop do it, I had to take it back 3 times before they got it right.

 

$9.95 per tire at Anderson's. Let me know.

 

sounds good jd...wat time you open till on saturdays??

 

Open until 3:00. Saturdays are usually by appointment only since I only have 4 sometimes 5 technicians working. So definitely let me know before just showing up and expecting it to be done. I do work this coming Saturday actually too, unfortunately. lol

 

Since we're on the subject of tires, so I took my tire to a local ford dealer to get it fixed. I was very nervous about taking it to wal-mart, in fear they'd screw up my TPMS and say they weren't at fault. Ford costed me $20 to fix a tire. I then took it to wal-mart just to take the chance, and it costed me $9. They didn't mess up my TPMS either. Anybody else trust wal-mart with their trucks? Or ever have problems with them? I hear bad things about their shop all the time.

 

i've never personally went there but my buddies dad loves their tires and warranties but other than that idk

and jd don't worry about it this saturday as i won't make it back in time, i get off work at 1 and then have to go home and actually get the rims so yea...but i'll pry show up sumtime during the week to get it done

 

Ok cool just let me know what works for ya and I'll do my best to hook you up as much as possible. I'm assuming they are aftermarket wheels? What size of tires?

 

I take mine to walmart to have the tire rotated. They only charge a $1.50 per tire and will do any pattern you want them to. I like to do my own maintenance but the hassle factor of rotating wheels is not a fav of mine so I just let them have there $6 and I go get the things I need. But that is about as far as I let someone go with my truck unless I do not posses the skills to do it myself.

 

yup there eagle alloy 058's 16x8 i belive...tires are 255/70/R16
im sure it will be no problem to rotate the tires as well while there off correct?? i think i've only rotated them once and they got a lil less than 20k on them (bad maintenence ik)

im thinking wednesday is gunna work best for me, is that usually a busy day??

 

Back when I worked at Nebraska Tire I had countless people tell me that the Wal-Mart sucks. It got to the point for a while where a guy could almost tell if it was a Wal-Mart patch in the tire that was leaking, I had to redo a lot of patched tires that came from Wal-Mart. I've never heard anything bad about thier shop, but thier quality isn't that great. I wouldn't trust them with my vehicle, then again I dont really trust just anyone either. TPMS isn't that hard to work around, its jus knowing what kind of sensor is on the wheel since thier is a few different styles.

 

i've only had one flat on my truck(knock on wood) and i just put a plug in it...ik a lot of ppl don't like them but i've had good luck using them

 

I ordered my wheels today!

I'm pretty excited! Still need tires and gears....but getting closer!!

 

Those wheels should look awesome with 38's. I saw them on a dodge this weekend..they made it look almost good.
