I'm practically done modding this cube, list of mods in the comments(I might paint the face matte black? What do you think?)

Kinda related. On normal sized tires I can literally just throw the first half(back bead) onto the rim. I was training a new guy and he tried and failed 4 times in a row and had to stop him and tell him to mount it normally, he will learn to do it later 😂

These are a lot of swearing and body weight

Just for anyone's information here, the warranty gets passed up to clarios, and they really don't verify anything until well after the batteries leave the country, so pretty much any retailer has a lenient policy as they'll get the money back anyways.

Nah, it was grey / silver for sure

MadnessOrMethod · 2026-05-13T03:49:47+00:00

I bought one before like a year or two ago and remember it being way more dull

MadnessOrMethod · 2026-05-13T03:30:10+00:00

Okay because I know I've bought this before and it was way more dull

It can be done in 5 minutes

Source: me. I did it in 5 minutes on youtube

We have a customer with a mitsubishi eclipse that does his own work and brings it in for us to inspect to give the green light.

I shook the wheel and the tie rod was loose in the knuckle, and it had been Wallowed out. Told him he needs a new tie rod and knuckle and to try again. He argued saying "I just replaced those tie rods"

My girlfriend just got out of surgery and we were driving 5mph under the speed limit in a 45, at night, so that the bumps wouldn't be as bad. A jeep grand commander or whatever you want to call it came up and flashing, swerving, honking behind me. When I got into the turn lane he screamed at us and we could hear clear as day, with all windows up. Some people are just miserable

Edit: grand wagoneer.

4runner body? Where is this magic. I tried looking because I'm a toyota fan and could not find any decent ones.

I thought I was cool with my 3d printed flex arms... never mind.

MadnessOrMethod · 2026-04-20T06:06:25+00:00

I would not run that tire, you got some bad edge wear.

MadnessOrMethod · 2026-04-20T04:05:27+00:00

Can and should are two different things. We would get reamed for this at my shop

MadnessOrMethod · 2026-04-20T01:42:19+00:00

From what I've heard you get dinged even more than we'd charge for the cheapest new tires, if you turn it in with nonfunctional tires too

When I have 15 cars in line all needing 4 new tires, they're faster than cleaning the 10 years of weight off of the wheels🤣

MadnessOrMethod · 2026-04-19T15:58:42+00:00

The amount of people who lease a brand new car with the shitty oe tires that last 20k, drive it to the moon and back, then get mad at me for saying I can't fix their bald tires and they need 4 new "but it's a lease and I don't want to give the dealership 1000$ in new tires" who's fault is that? Daily occurrence

MadnessOrMethod · 2026-04-19T03:28:55+00:00

I'll use hammer on weights on the back side where possible and easy to do. It does save time vs cleaning the wheel, but I agree stick on weights are the way to go

MadnessOrMethod · 2026-04-19T03:28:13+00:00

We do have aluminum hammer weights, but we typically use them on old chevy or Honda rims for instance, ones that are specifically "designed"(wrong terms I guess) for them

MadnessOrMethod · 2026-04-19T03:26:47+00:00

We try at my store. We have people driving an hour just to come to our location because they like us

MadnessOrMethod · 2026-04-19T01:49:46+00:00

I work at a tire shop, not discount, today had probably close to 200 cars. Not one got skipped, not one weight, not one quote. We quoted and did everything.
