    I think with a lesser aggressive tire the 0 offset might be the better choice. With some poke and a tire more like what you have it may look a little off like you were thinking.

    Wrecked!
    I was a customer for 15 yrs all ways bought from them until I got a set of tires on my Honda. One of the tires they couldnt get it balanced. After five trips one of the trips I went to a different store and same results. On my 5th trip I told the manager that they need to warranty the tire and replace it. He said he can't and blamed the car for the problem. So I went to Honda car inspection turned up nothing. Everything was in specs. Went back to shwab and they said we can only give you %50 off a new tire since you now have a few 1000 miles on this tire. I told him that's bullshit thus tire has been an issue from day one. He didn't care said that's all I can do. So I told him fine I will buy it because I was currently driving 100+ miles a day for work and I can't take the vibes any longer,but I will never buy from you again. He just shrugged it off, with no apologies. Before that they always gave excellent service. I never got loud with them, but I did say that's fucking bullshit you won't stand by your tires, I had wasted 5 afternoons dealing with there bad tire.

    I had a good experience at my Local America's tire. I used that "30 day satisfaction guarantee", no hassle from their end. I originally wanted ST MAXX's, but all they had were ATP's in stock. Went with the ATP's, but I knew I would regret it in a couple years not going with my initial tire choice based off all the reviews I have read. Went in on the 30th day and paid the difference, few days later got em swapped out. Guys were super helpful and didn't give me bad looks when I said I preferred them hand loosen and tighten the lugs.

    #radialtireserviceforlife.

    There's is this guy Joe who works there. When I show and and say I want this, and I want that, but don't do this...they say say, go get Joe.

    When I said I want these Coopers, but Discount has them online for this with this other discount too, they matched it. And that was via email.

    No vibes ever on anything when I leave.

    i stopped dealing with Schwabb because something similar, and they also made me sign a "waiver" form saying if they scratch/dent/mark my wheels then they're not liable because i didnt buy them through them. Basically it was a "im gonna fuck your wheel up, here sign this." So i told them to kindly kick rocks. Never been back since.

    At the risk of being predictable, I'm not sure if I believe you.

    My only bad Les Schwab story: they do that little tray of your fluids to show you that you need a coolant flush or oil change yadada. Well my sister went in for a tire plug because she is so prone to getting flat tires, and they show her some black ass oil that they say is her engine oil! HAHA fuck off I say I just changed the oil THAT MORNING. Since then I have never ever trusted them. I stick with Jay and Bills or The Tire Source in Petaluma. Both are Mom and Pop and have been 30+ years in Petaluma.
