Winner winner chicken dinner. Who cares where you got your wheels? Its like taking a Chevy to s Ford delearship for servicing, & Ford turning them away bc they didnt buy a Ford from them. If an LBS is butthurt bc you didnt buy the wheels there, im sure there are several more shops whod gladly take your business instead? Plus, wouldnt be surprised if while casually mentioning what happened, they offer to fix stuff for free in the future, or at a discount.
