Re: Is this tire still good?

20bucks a tire for the stick on weights and this dude was very confident in telling me he wouldn't scratch them
The other two places i went to - one had a disclaimer that said they weren't responsible for there work and the other gave a funny face when i asked if they could do it with out ------- up the finish on them.
How the ---- are you going to pay someone to do something for them and then read a sign that said they wern't responsible for the damage they do to the wheels. ---- that....

that will leak and i would know because i mounted a tire with the same problem except only about 1/4 of what your tire was like...Since i have access of the tire manchines i did it myself and added bead sealer to it. after the bead sealer it didn't leak anymore so make sure you use it.
