    I just got back from Discount with a new set of rubber and the service was great as usual. 30 minutes in and out, and I was just over $800 out the door for 265/75 KO2s installed.

    THEREFORE every DT location is always great and you can always get any set of tires installed in 1/2 hour. (am I doing this right?)

    Is that right? So you go shop at every single store, go out of your way, to make sure you don't generalize? Our lives are steered by generalizations and profiling (grouping). I have better things to do with my time than shop at every location. So in turn, discount tire sucks!

    Yes! You performed at peak level. Try some so cal ones though. Don't want to any generalizations!

    I will gladly trade you tire shops so I could go back and surf Black's while you're here in the desert :)

    Here is the best part: the above statement IS a sweeping generalization.

    No, you're apparently to busy going store to store! Sounds exhausting.

    ....but you're comfortable installing several AAL suspensions and you "don't like to pay anyone to do anything"??? Now I don't know if your OP is serious or not. I guess @jberry813 can decide that one.

    P.S. I hope you never get a flat tire while out camping with your RTT. Changing the tire might be a problem.

    You can check out this thread for a few tips, or just use the jack that came with your truck.

    Very carefully.

    OP have you ever had a doctor appointment? You have to have an appointment to even go to most of them must check in 15 minutes early or they can mark you as a no show and then bill you anyway. Then you wait a minimum of 30 minutes after your scheded appointment for them to take you back to another waiting area before you wait some more and still haven't seen the doctor yet.
