My personal experience with Kal-Tire says it's entirely possible they did this to the OP. They:

- Mounted my tires with a T-Rex, damaging the sidewall

- Refused to sell me tires and wheels without also selling me TPMS sensors (but only told me when I showed up for my appointment, and we got into it...)



Lots of good memories in this thread

Sending an email with pictures to head office and Vernon got them to sell me new tires at cost.

That said, I had outstanding service from a Kal-Tire on 42nd Ave. So it really depends on the manager and the employees they hire....

Has there ever been a Jihad against an actual CP poster before?

Lets see here....

A story that is so uncommon that believe don't believe it. Check
Initial posts ask questions, as people should. Check
OP goes dark for a while, who does that when posting a rant post, don't they hit refresh like any other regular human? Check.
OP finally posts, provides little information. Check.
More posters ask questions, smelling something in the air. Check.
OP posts again, has skirted by almost every single questions asked in the thread. Check.


BS meter is at 70%. Missing facts to get to real conclusion.

This thread can still go either way. I have faith in at least two more vague posts before some light is shed on everything. Enjoy the ride everyone there is still some massive potential here.

By the way, the same thing happened to my mother in law a few years ago and I believe it was a kal tire as well. As soon as my father in law showed up though, keys were back in hand. So they were just bullying my mother in law. Classy.

I love witch hunts. I think we should ban OP without a sworn affidavit confirming the “facts” from the OP.

Yeah the "oh a different tireshop is looking into it I'll update" followed by crickets tells us there's some big blanks that were left from this story

I was scanning through the Wannamaker thread and someone suggested we needed a "CP Classics" area to sticky threads that deserve to be preserved for their awesomeness. I agree entirely.

I think this tread has been evenly balanced but there should definitely be more pressure on the OP to detail more plies of this low-profile story so we don’t have to keep circling back until this goes flat.

Late to the story, but if we are taking bets, I am even that either the tire was brought in in such poor condition that it can't be inflated and therefore driven elsewhere.
Alternatively, the tire shop screwed up and destroyed the tire so that it can't hold air and don't want to admit it.
