^lmao. I did not raise rates buy getting tires. I got hit and it was "x" amount of damages to my car so they needed to give me "x" amount. Im not working for free, I work for money like every one else. I took the money that I made an hour and got tires. Its no different then when I paint at work and buy tires with my pay check.............

Same here..I just got rearended this evening...doesnt look bad but I don't want to get jacked around...do I have to settle for OEM equivalent or can I demand OEM only? I've heard that if true OEM parts are used then you don't get diminished value...???

^What lol. Not true at all my friend. Depending on the year of your car is what makes it worth oem parts or aftermarket parts to the insurance company. Most are 5 years or older get aftermarket, but some do 2-3. It depends on the year and what insurance company you have.
The way to determine what the diminished value is just take half of the totle price of the repair. If you have $2,000 of damage to your car and it gets fixed. When you trade it in they tell you its worth $1,000 less.
