    Wasn't even aware Costco would mount tires they didn't sell. At least I thought that was their policy... I'll have to call them and check have a set I need mounted to different wheels.

    Glad it worked out for you OP

    Wow that sucks that happened to you but to be fair I've had my local walmart install around 6 sets of tires and never once had an issue. I watched them work & they definitely used a liquid of some type as a lube to mount & dismount. I've saved hundreds of dollars by buying my tires at walmart.com and having them shipped to the store for free. I usually look at this type of thing like anybody can make mistakes even the best companies but how they deal with that mistake is what really matters & you got 4 brand new tires so I'd say they did you right. :)

    I disagree, Walmart took care of you, which I don't think they would of had to. Those tires were stepped on more times then they should have been, any store that would treat me the way they treated you would get my repeat business. jmop
