Default A HUGE thanks to Speed Factory!

I flew into Seattle on Friday to buy a Wagovan RT4WD and Saturday morning at Discount Tire we found that moving from a 195/60/14 to a 205/50/15 (+35 15x7) wouldn't fit under the wheel wells of the car (way to slammed on skunk2 sleeves). I drove to a bunch of places who either didn't have time, or wouldn't touch it. Then Justin at a Jiffy Lube (I kinda figured there is almost always a grease monkey at an oil change place) pointed me towards Speed Factory in Tacoma as a place that might be able to help me out.

I called Matt and he told me to come right down. As soon as I got there they threw the Wagovan on the lift and raised it 1", allowing for the wheels/tires to fit and to have a semi comfortable drive back to Milwaukee. They were super nice, and charged a very, very fair price. Without their help I would have been driving back on unbalanced, near bald 14"s.

About to drive into Yellowstone, thanks guys!!!

Besides some of the ludacris prices for some things. But needless to say, I'd always shell out the extra money to have my car done by them. The knowledge there is ENDLESS. Veryyy smart dudes with damn near every car. They are also the only shop to ever help me over the phone and not be like; "Oh, we can't help you because you aren't paying us to do your car work"

SpeedFactory gets a HUGEE from me!

sometimes people forget that its a buiness that has to make money to pay the bills. Its give and take, somtimes you have to shell out a little extra cash, but in the long run its cheaper...make sense?

glad you've had great service with SF, matt, kev, james, ricky, tyler (and sometimes zol ) work their butts off!

Guys at speedfactory are awesome. I don't think their prices are bad at all, but even if you do pay a little extra it's worth the tech support and at times I've seen them go out of their way to help people when it's obviously not advantageous for them to do so.

Ah Zol I didn't know you were affiliated with SF!

I sent Matt an email a couple days ago, hopefully we'll be able to get the ball rolling and get my car boosted
