@#$% MAD - Tire damaged by America's Tire Company (56K warning)
So I take my tire in to be plugged (nail) and when I went to pick it up, they told me they "dropped" the wheel. They said that they would repair the wheel for me. I think I should ask for a new one. I dont see how you can get some of these scratches and 1 small chunk from a drop. It could have landed on something but....

even if it was the machine they use to take the tire off your scratches are on the wrong side of the wheel..
anyways go ask for a new rim..
edit: now that i look at it again looks like the dropped it and it rolled down the hill or something haha.. or went through a blender O.o... sorry =X

You know, if they took damages from the techs' paychecks, I'm sure these places would suddenly be safe enough for all of us.
It doesn't surprise me that it was "dropped", as they generally roll or toss the wheels out of the way. This technique must save them all of about 30-60 seconds. These guys think they're part of the Schumacher pit crew or something.
