Re: darn Ford dealer
listen to this, my step mother a few years back went in to get the tires rotated and such well on they way home wich is about 20 miles from the dealer and mostly 55-60 mph she went around a corner at 35 and the left front tire flew off. the dealer didnt put all the lug nuts on and not all the way tight, car was done!! well she went up there and towed the car with her the dealer said they would buy the car but it was only worth like 2000
so she said she wanted a new 2008 mustang cobra with no down payment, they said no.!! so she said she would go to the news and they gave her the car and nothing down and 2000 off the price

I could have gotten the same rim for 150 bucks.
So I guess labor and air, maybe shipping costs 350 bucks?

Re: darn Ford dealer
^^ That's my point... you know you could have done it cheaper so as shitty as they are for pulling that shit it's your job to protect yourself... Better have one hell of a warranty... :-p

Re: darn Ford dealer
First problem? you went to the dealer.
Second problem? I hope he wore rubber.
Third Problem? SEEK OTHER OPTIONS THAN A DEALER THEIR JOB IS TO MAKE MONEY AND THATS IT!
Last time I went to dealer was for small fireproof hose line coming from the exhaust manifold to the firewall thing (dont remember). Before that? A decade probably.

x2 this is true. It's so true in fact I'm sure you wouldn't have had a problem finding someone else who would be willing to drive to the dealership and install the aftermarket wheels on their property.
