Making an appointment to have tires balanced
Not to start a thread on the viabilities of having tires balanced on a TT but I purchased the tires from Tire Discounters back in 2012. I took my TT back every year to have the tires re-balanced and only once did they have time. My arrival times were first thing in the morning and would have hung around to have it done but they tell me that they are busy with no one available to do it until later.
This year I called asking if they would be able to do the job tomorrow and they replied that they had a full list of appointments and could I leave the TT with them.
Usually I buy my tires for my truck and car at Big O and they get to me within an hour, my contention to leave my TT is two-fold, (1) the place where they want my trailer is where all the delivery trucks come in and out and there is not a lot of room for maneuvering, (2) I do not like leaving it there in the back parking lot while I am not there in the case someone damages it, basically I want to keep on eye on it.
Since this is not a car that is easily parked I am hesitant to leave it there. I sent a note of concern on their website. I basically do not expect them to get me in as their process is what it is. I am tempted to go to another shop and pay extra to just to have it done. Next time I need tires I do plan to shop elsewhere.
I could set up an appointment but it seems that their hours they have available don't match my schedule.
Question:
Where do you go for your tire services for your TT?
What is your in-out experience?
Do you leave your TT at a tire shop while you leave to do something else?
