    Default Anyone here work at a big name tire shop?

    Anyone here work at a big name tire shop? probably go the route of one of our tire sponsors, but thought i would ask if anyone out there works at a shop and wants to give a beyonder a break on a set of tires- never hurts to ask i guess


    should probably add that this if for AT SUV tires

    Canadian Tire, walk in. Or Harper's Tire!. It's been 2 years since I worked in the wheel business, but Harper's Tire was recommended by my boss, or Kal Tire on barlow and 66

    Just wait for Bob man, you will be overly pleased with the service again. Yes he may be a little swamped right now but the more people who help him get off the ground the better off everyone is who needs tires and rims.

    Honest guy and no B.S. when you need a second opinion.

    y = bump in the road
    z = oh shit

    x + y = z

    Each time I've been to CMS, they've been nice to me. Last time, what started as a simple trip to pick up some mounting hardware (hub rings, lug nuts) turned into them mounting my new wheels on for me free of charge, throwing in a set of metal valve stem covers for free, AND a bit of a Beyond discount when I asked. Plus the cashier lady is nice too.

    Sorry man... Not trying to be the "excuse guy", but yeah, I am just trying to get things off the ground and working on my own is proving to be quite overwhelming, but I am starting to get a leg up and have even hired a guy in the afternoons to try and help so I can get to some of these messages... Eventually when I am able i will be hiring more people full time, but i don't want to get ahead of myself so if anyone needs anything and has the patience to tough out my schedule, it is greatly appreciated!
