The timing of this thread is perfect. DO NOT use Discount Tire. My wife's car is on her NINTH, as in the number 9, rim that has been purchased and re-mounted because the nerds at Discount Tire are in a hurry.

Full story, I bought her four new rims for her BMW. Took them to Discount Tire because that's where I bought the rubber. The kid who mounted them, did so right-side up rather than upside down, and scratched ALL FOUR RIMS. You'd think the idiot would stop after scratching the first one. Nope, heads down and f&^ks up all four. Okay, so at least they offered to buy me four more rims at their expense without any hassle. Good on them. Well, I just has the new ones mounted on Friday and guess what? Yep, that's right, the "manager" who mounted them dropped the bar on one of the rims and dented it. Now the 9th rim is on order. Oh, by the way, they left off the valve stem cover on two of the four tires they mounted.

I can't wait to go back again. I feel like I am in the Twilight Zone and really, I'm not that picky about my wife's rims. I guess scratched wouldn't be an accurate description. Maybe gouged would be. Really, really unbelievable.
