[QUOTE="Mad Professor, post: 3590120, member: 5316"] If they dropped something on it, they did it 3 times based on the angle and locations. The wheel was brand new. I personally test fit the bare wheel on my card prior to taking it up there for the tire to be mounted. And yes, usually the damage is on the bead area like they did to this wheel when I had the original set mounted in December. I hit a massive pothole last month and broke a wheel. I bought a replacement. [ATTACH=full]209068[/ATTACH] I realize they will sometimes will get damaged from driving. That’s the reason I actually bought 2 replacements this time. But there is still no reason to accept careless handling of them by a shop. Particularly an accessory shop. My car will get a few door dings and rock chips on it also from driving it the next few years. I’d be just a pissed at damage from a mechanic dropping his tools on the tops of the fenders while working on it too. Nice setup. I had a manual machine and balancer at one time. 35 years or so ago and not near as nice. But there is no telling how many race car tires I mounted with it. [/QUOTE]
