Wait... you would get charged to do the work yourself?? How does that work?

And I don't always love the feel of new tires. The new PP's were WAY too twitchy for the street on my 1125. After about 500 miles of highway driving/commuting, they were much better.
Loved the feel of my Corsa III's... just wish I could get more than 3K out of a set...

Can't you do it after hours? I forget where you work, so

Gotta love having to pay your boss for "YOUR TIME!" (insert rolley eyes here) Isn't there some way that you could do them on your lunch break or something?? Seems shitty to me.

I understand 100%

I probably wouldn't get mine for free, but I help out and on occassion, do them myself.

I try to help him out on the weekends when he needs it and do other things too. I guess I kind of pay for it, but in the long run.......what are friends for?

Your boss sucks.

And I think I might go back to Pilot Powers when the DC III's wear out.
