damn that doesnt sound good at all. i had an local alignment place strip my lock nut (due to using an impact gun) pissed me off so much because I gave my dad the car to take to the alignment and I personally didn't know it because next time I messed with my wheels / rims were a couple of months later.

Exactly what happened with me. One of the guys tried to mount on my rim. Didn't realize there was a hub-centric ring on the rim and one stuck on the hub. He tried to shoot it in with the impact and just *****ed it up...

Wheel and Tire Connection in Irvine!
They team of guys down there are seriously the best people I've ever worked with. They work on exotic cars and race/tracked cars, they do great work and they're rate isn't too bad at all. They actually care about you car and the work they've done so far which is the best thing yet. I would recommend them to anyone
