The last people to fit front tyres to my car shouldn't be allowed near a car, far less to work on one.
Took my car to have the wheels balanced cos they felt like they were badly buckled today.
First issue was the wheel bolts were so tight they couldn't undo them with a impact wrench, got the breaker bar on them and one was so tight it actually got a little wheel spin undoing it.
Next up put them on the machine and the worse one was showing a total of almost 120g out of balance. Took the old weights off and it was only 70g out. Yep that's right the wheels had been balanced that badly that they would of been better balanced without the weights.
Fuckwits!
