Mounted backward

Postby dustcloud [OP] » Dec 30 2011, 3:14pm

I bought a used set of Wrangler MTR with Kevlar tires for my truck for a sweet price and had them mounted yesterday. I noticed when I left the shop it was pulling to the right some but thought since the road was snowy maybe that was the problem. When I got home I was looking and the 2 on the passenger side are mounted backward....ugh.... the 2 on the driver side have the mount this side outboard showing, the 2 on the passenger side have the mount this side inboard showing. my dilemma is the shop I had them done at is 45 miles 1 way. I called him and he said he will make it right but it will cost me more to drive there than have someone closer do it. I hd him do it bcuz he is a family friend and I had some other things to take their to begin with so I figured I would kill 2 birds with one stone. In his defense, he didnt do the tires a new guy he had in as a replacement did.

Next time you see him tell him he owes you lunch for the mishap. :) Bite the bullet, and go local. Good luck,,
