Default stupid tire shops....

place was supposed to order for my tire on monday, i stop by little while ago and they are like should be here by 2, so i'm like ok good i'm going to be heading up towards boston tomorrow and i don't wanna drive with one smaller tire on here for very long. 5 mins later they call me to tell my my order "slipped through the cracks" and wont be here till tuesday. this is anyoing cuase orig they said it would take 4-5 working days, now they can magicly have it in 2. so now i have to go sit on the wet *** ground and put the other 3 stock rims on. i'm going to FL next week so guess i'll just have to get the tire fixed then, then switch all my rims over again, fun stuff.

Default I bought my wheels/tires tuesday.

They are going from Tampa to Orlando which is about 2 hours away. The guy said 'next day.'

Now it's "Maybe Monday"
