Holgate wouldn't touch my last set of Azenis because I bought them somewhere else. I won't be back.

Thats ridiculous not doing a install and balance for the price they make a decent profit, I am lucky now we have road force at work!!

Icalled them< they said they would put my used tires on for 80.
That seems to be the non buddy rate. Wallymart and Canadian tire want like 25$per tire! $100 for 20minutes time and a few small chunks of lead?? I need to start offering this in my business.

When I was co-oping my high school away in garages they were charging 7bucks a tire,

Because the rims on my Lancer are new, they wouldnt touch them. They wanted to charge me a premium rate. $120 for install and balance, plus tax. I also wont be back.

Well I took my great tires to get them installed.... they were no good! the inner layer was bubbling and separating ?? and the mech didnt want to install them cause he just seen the same thing on the same tire blow out a week ago. Says its a manufacture flaw in the herculies raptis tire line.
