So, update on Tire n Wheel Rental Adventure.
Discount Tire looked in chart and it said they couldn't put my 92Y and 94Y Michelins on, since 92Y was rated lower than 91V. BS, 92Y is 1386# load bearing or 33# more.
BMW dealer said $300, so I went to Ghetto town Tire N Wheel Rental where $3k worth of tires and wheels becomes $6k in a year. They charged $104 and didn't scratch up wheels, BUT THEY HAMMERED LUGS TIGHT when they said over and over they use a torque wrench!
I watched them hammer on and then confirm with toque wrench 88#'s!
So, I knew what they did, and when I went back today, the service manager claimed over and over they knew what doing. Manager could barely break lug loose moving car, and still said they didn't make a mistake.
What numbnuts! Car should never move tightening or loosening at 88#!
A 10 year old bicycle mechanic could understand that torque wrench would jump off at 88# when lugs tightened to 150#. IT'S A FALSE POSITIVE READING!
