NEW TIRES - QUESTION

[Mayfly]

So I broke down and bought new tires yesterday. The best deal was on a set of tires that were "plus size" so I took them. The tire guy said they would work perfect  So last night I am back into a parking spot and my tire starts rubbing the wheel well. When I go forward I can turn right and left and no problem. I'm bringing my vehicle back. Should they replace the tires with no charge? It is there problem right?

they should have put the right size tires on in the
first place. if the tires are bigger it could throw
the speedometer off.

   They should fix the problem with the correct tire size at no charge unless you were told no warranty on the invoice.

I went down there and we got it squared away

There is one little spot that it is rubbing and although it barely hits it it makes a super loud noise. The reason it hits that spot is because I am mising a sway bar link on my front left side and because of that the vehicke sits lower on that side causing this to happen. Tomorrow morning at 10 I am having new sway bar links put in and that should correct the problem.

So much for saving money!  Oh well least ya will get the sway barr fixed!  Take care and N Joy the Hunt././Jimbo

Sounds about right, cause the wifes did the same thing, and it was the sway bar.

I wish.

I used to Work at Sears so I went there. I was driving on a spare at the time and my tires were really in bad shape....and of course I blew one. So I had a free tow and Sears was the closest and the rest is history. I'm pretty happy with the deal I got.  It wil be nice tommorow after my buddy fixes the sway bar.

How do the plus size tires look? I can imagine that the 22's, spinners and the neon lights look pretty sharp.

curb feelers?

You actually cannot tell. They are just a tad wider.....

And they aren't 22's they are 21's.....

with the tires off....
