tire shop in 626
#16
I purchased my coilovers about 2 yrs ago from super vip motoring. The customer service is average and they told me I could go back for free adjustments. I learned to do all the adjusting myself since I am pretty picky with my car.

A few days later I heard some odd sounds when driving it over moderately bumpy roads. Impex said I should just wait and get an alignment and the problem will be fixed. Not true.
So a month later, the noise is still there, Impex says they're charge me more money to look at the car and that they're too busy right now anyways so I should wait till later and I take my car elsewhere to get a second opinion and they tell me that whoever did the suspension work last put the wrong bushings back on the car. I'm like ! They showed me the crushed shock bushings and believe me I was furious that a shop like Impex could commit such a careless and obvious mistake. Some other car out there is problem driving around using my bushings instead.
I was tempted to go back to Impex to give them a piece of my mind, but I figured it wouldn't do any good with those greedy guys . I'll just resort to telling my story online to whomever will listen.
Sorry to hear about your friend's experience at discount tires, Mikal. That really sucks. I bet Henry's got something to say about LMW too, but I'll leave that up to him.
So, any other recommendations for shops in the 626? My friend warms me about Promax on Garfield. How's Pitwell Crew? or VIP on Valley near Fremont?
