DON`T BUY TIRES FROM THIS GUY!...

DON`T BUY TIRES FROM THIS GUY! I only gave him a star because there is no option for zero stars. He will happily sell you tires that are old or otherwise and defective, hoping you won`t notice right away due to the low speed limits in Sitka. He sold us 4 defective tires and won`t stand behind them at all. All four of them failed between Prince Rupert and Prince George, less than a month ofter we purchased them. They ... view moreworked OK in Sitka at 35 mph, but shook like mad the minute we got on a road at 60 mph. The first one blew out at about 100 miles. The rest were so out of round that the Firestone dealer we went to could`t even balance them. This guy told us all sorts of lies and refused to provide any refund. First he tried to misrepresent the off-brand tires he sold us as a Firestone-Bridgestone product, which they aren`t. The Firestone dealer we stopped at to try and get them balanced had never even heard of the brand and couldn`t find anyone to honor a warranty. He also had left them grossly overinflated, which was probably a contributing factor in their failure. He tried to tell us that they we supposed to be inflated to 46+ psi, despite what the real Firestone dealer told us and their not-to-exceed pressure of 40 psi printed right on the side of the tire.
