No, my shop appointment isn't till July 20th!
I don't know if I should wait for the specialist opening that's really far away or just take it to a local shop and hope for the best...

What is the hurry john? Get it done right.

Painted and put down a epoxy confetti floor in my brothers garage. Having a great time up here with the massholes.
Going to do some crawling today I think.

Then drink beer.

Just ordered the Goodyear Wrangler MT/R's with Kevlar 32/11.50-15 from Discount Tire and trying to see if they can order the U.S. Wheel for me too.
