Found My New Tires

So I got my set of tires this past Monday , some Kumhos ASX , nice tires now that their mounted. The funny thing was that the tires where deliver to the wrong address. You see I placed the order last Wednesday so I figure that by Friday I would've gotten them at the latest. Of couse the weekend goes by and nothing .

I get to work on Monday and I look thru the shipping confirmation that I made while at work , When I notice I made a Dumb mistake . On the address I put 2154 instead of 2159 , so I hit the wrong key and got the wrong address.

I called TireRack thinking I'll just get the address change , when see tells me that the tires had been delivered Thursday. So at this point I'm like..... okay, so my package was drop of without a signature or anything. She say's, Yea, they have a bad habit of doing that. So me being a little impatient , took of work and headed to visit my neighbor . ( i did'nt know who the hell they where )

I get there, knock on the front door, nothing .... I'm like damn I going to have to do this later in the afternoon. So as I'm heading out I notice there's another door back there. So i knock there and a lady come out. I asked, if by any chance had they recieved some tires last week , and she's like, Yea , we did . What a relive that was. She show me the tires , they were thrown in the back yard and tells me to help myself.

So I happily roll the tires across the street to where they belong. Lucky me , it worked out fine. Now I know who my neighbors are .......

complain and get another set.... as far as anyone is concerned they never made it to YOUR house... and as far as the lady is concerned she didn't check the ID of some punk demanding tires that were just sitting in her back yard.

i say go for the 2 for 1 deal.

^you are a big part of what is wrong with this world. You dishonest punk. He got his tires back, no harm done. He even admitted he was the one that gave an incorrect address.

Glad you got your tires Reaper

The pad are fine , but I've only had them on for a couple of weeks . I actually had to go in and use brake cleaner and more lube . No noise so far.

Theres something written in Wheels, Tires Forums check it out . Title: Brake job I have a question?
