Long story short I had taken my DD in to have some Hub Centric Rings installed in the late summer. No issues with anything since then, so yesterday I went out to slap on the Snow Tires so the GF could drive it to work and I noticed something when I took off my rear wheel.
They jacked my H&R Spacers that I had on the back!!!

So I called the place and I got a total D-Bag on the phone that got offended as soon as I brought up what happened. I was just saying maybe they forgot to put them back on or something like that and to see if they remember a set laying around. He started yelling back at me saying that they don't steal ish this and that. So he was so pissed he was just like "YOU GOT A RECEIPT?" "BRING IT IN!!!" and he hung up on me.

The big down side is I got them at Waterwagens and didn't get a receipt for them at the show. Just wondering if maybe someone might have a receipt that they can scan so I can get my ish back from these F'ers. They are offering to replace them so if I can bring them a copy of one I am good to go.

You bought spacers that weren't hub centric in the first place?? Shouldn't have done that. What size were they? They couldn't have been that big if you didn't notice...
Either way that sucks, hope it works out.

They were like 1/2" or so nothing too big or anything. Probably just end up saying F-it and Them too. Just sucks to be out a set of spacers though.

Shut it fatass. D Tires lost somewhere around 1000$ on me when they continued to eff **** up. Their local corporate office takes these things VERY seriously.

Sorry dude but this is why you should of done it yourself or take it to TKO, Finetuning or Achtuning.


Yeah they were the first place I stopped at that day because I was on my way out to Ocean Shores that night after work. Otherwise I would have just paid for them and installed them myself.

Then why is he asking for a copy of a receipt for spacers??

For Proof because the dude just acted like I was Full of it. Pretty much like I didn't even have them on my car when I came in and that I am lying about the whole issue at hand.
