The only time I get anything in from within the last 6 months is a special ordered tire that wasn’t even in the warehouse, or a very popular design and size that they constantly make.

People come into work all the time with shot tires no tread on them weathered to shit cracks all over and they want it fixed because they “dont want to put a lot of money into the car” for various reasons, it’s old, it’s crappy etc. etc.

I’m sorry but to me just because my car looks like garbage doesn’t mean I want to die from shit-ass tires!
