Default Tried to get a new free set of tires...

Well, my tread was chunking on the front (from track use) so I thought maybe I could pull a fast one on Firestone/Bridgestone and get a new set under warrnety. Unfortunately the manager there road races preludes so I was screwed. Then he tried to sell me RE730's for $125 a piece and I just laughed a little and said I'd get back to him.

People like you just make it harder for us legit people. No wonder they want to void warranties for just intakes...all these "SCAMMERS" trying to pull fast ones.

I think its time to start taking responsibility for YOUR OWN actions.

I had a tire blow out on me. Luckily the previous owner bought the protection plan, but they only credited me the percentage of how much tread was left on the tire. I couldnt believe I had to pay anything. 6k miles on the tire, and it freaken blows up while cruising on the interstate!
