    Also, hit up a member on here named boomer27, his family runs a mobile tire service, so he may hook you up with an IA discount.

    yeah if you're gonna go somewhere, go to dicount tire. I've been to 3 different firestones. First one sold my g/f a lifetime warranty thats pretty much useless now, second one turned her tie rod upside down when they were doing her alignment AND left off her washer, the 3rd one messed up my ball joints somehow and bent my underbody sheild. I dont go there anymore

    antiv6 is right, discount tires at discover put on my directional tires backwards after i took it back for some adjustment on the balancing the day i got my tires, no biggy, i just swapped it myself but it was kinda gay seeing that my friend worked there and over looked that. had i hit rain i woulda been ****ed. other then that incident, they were good customer service/price wise

    I've always gone to Grand Turismo East in Chamblee. They are first rate and have world class service when it comes to dealing with modified cars(lowered, bodykits the like). A lot of the locall drift community uses this shop almost exclusively for their wheel tire and suspension needs.
