Yes...I agree because we've had to buy not only tires but rims and had to gather up fender pieces from the highway...but the saga continues.
The deal is now...the guy can't get the tire on the rim. His Shop gave us options (at first) to buy the tire from him, he wouldn't charge us for the labor and get somebody else to put the tire on the rim. OR...he could take the rim back to the shop, they would put the tire on and bring it back in the morning and put the wheel and tire on. We sort of objected to those two options, so now the tech who came out has taken the tire and the rim and swears that they will call somebody in to put the tire on the rim and bring it back later tonight. As it is 11:09 now, I guess it will be later tonight! Fortunately, we gave ourselves plenty of time to get to Newell. If we can just keep our sense of humor we'll be fine.

The date code on the tire is 2012. We purchased the coach June of 2014 and have been thinking about replacing the front tires ever since.
