My Tire guy is cooler than your tire guy....

So this afternoon I call my tire guy and tell him I am breaking my car out from winter storage. I told him the beast needs some new shoes in the rear. I already have a Pilot Sport AS on the shelf and he has the other that he ordered me this past fall. I asked him if he is working so I can drive out tomorrow and have him mount em up. Instead he swings by my house tonight and takes my rear wheels and tire with him. Door to door service.... gotta love it.

If you lived in the northeast, I would say you were just jacked for a pair of rear wheels and a tire

Can't argue with good service. Put something underneath that wheel, man - it's making me nervous.
