Rabaconda Street Tire Changer

[Grumpy Goat]

I always mark rotation on my wheels when I carry them into dealer to mount my new tires.  Most of the time with masking tape with an arrow scribed in Sharpie.  Then when I pick them up, I verify rotation.

Every once in while one of the techs will take exception.  I don't care.

I don't blame you. I think that they assign the guy with the least experience to tasks such as these so better to be safe than get drama afterwards. I have also the experience of having to re-balance the wheel after bringing it home. All the more reason to do these jobs yourself if possible.
