Damn, that's freaking fast for driving on a local street! Was someone chasing after you? I would be too scared to drive that fast.

1) Can you tell us why you have this opinion of them?

2) They were the only one who was willing to take my rim to fix it even if it meant they may destroy it in the process. At least they didn't give any excuses.

let's see...I dunno...maybe cuz I bought a set of 16" generic chrome rims with tires for $1300 for my hyundai sonata back in the day



and oh yeah, maybe it was cuz when the original set of 16's didn't fit the car (car shook like crazy) they told me I needed $.50 plate spacers that made the car ride even worse



bottom line, YGWYPF......I would stay out of ghetto shops like these when you roll in a Lexus

my $.02

How does the location of the shop and what you "roll" in affect the work being done on your wheel?

Just because you have a Lexus doesn't mean you have to take it to the most expensive place to fix things. And that's my $.02
