*Sigh* I need to have a little conversation with my local Les Schwab

Wow that's terrible, go back to them immediately and show them what happened. They should be covering any damages.

Damn for sure go back to the place and raise hell.

Got my old bottle caps balanced yesterday. Drove the car today, noticed a weird wobble. Had about 30 seconds before I knew something was very very wrong. Screeches and scratches. Metal on metal. I started to pull over and BAM, there goes my wheel and tire. The escaped rim ended up about 500 feet down the road, I was actually a little impressed with how far it made it. 3 of the lugs backed out, 1 sheered off. Never again will I let someone else touch my car. Ever.

Good news is I have AAA, so the tow home was free. I have a 5 lug swap ready for the front, so I'm guessing that its time to put that on. My skid plate saved my oil pan. So I just need a new quarter panel, lip, and valence.
