    I'm at Discount Tire in Garner getting some new shoes mounted. Just found out they don't do alignment here...anyone know a good place nearby?

    Just up the rd from me. AFAIK no discount Tire does alignments. @ahspurlock is my alignment guy! But when I can't get to him I'll suffer through a Firestone lifetime alignment.

    I really should come in and show them the sidewall cuts I have..

    I'm thinking if they knew what you do that you would get no warranty at all :rofl:

    The one I got them from knows and the manager asks me how they do anytime I'm in there. I'll run it through a car wash before I take it in..

    At least you get your money's worth on the lifetime deal. Since I'm not going to be in SC anything soon, I'll prolly go to the Firestone next door. Anything special I should ask them to do?

    LOL, you are not concerned with making time and getting things done in a reasonable time frame.
    My lifts hold 4qts, thru that valve it takes 8+ minutes for the oil to completely drain. Pull the regular plug, 1.5 minutes, I'm on the ground one time, instead of 2 possibly 3 times waiting for the drain to close it back up.
    Got no time for that.
    A 14mm socket and a ratchet, boom done, pull drain pan, dump the oil in waste container, continue on with the rest of the service.
    On my own junk, why ?
