I got my alignment done & springs installed @ Schlott Tire on Rt. 38 in Tewksbury. I also got my winter tires from them mounted on my OEM rims....never had any work done on my aftermarket rims by them (i.e. balancing), but they have replaced a few stripped studs for me when I had my aftermarket rims on and also got some new chrome lugs from them. They're great guys there and I like getting my wheel/suspension work done there...VERY affordable too.

Are these OEM wheels?

They're 2 minutes south of 495 intersection on the northbound side. They're next to that storage place and right across the street from the shopping plaza where that pool store, lighting store & dead mall plaza is.

Man I went to Schlott Tire on Rt. 38 in Tewksbury. Not too happy, well at first I asked few concerning questions and sound promissing. But then when the sad news came, they couldn't take out 1 of my wheel cuz the lug nut won't come out. WTH, my friend and I put those rims on w/o any trouble putting in the lug nuts and tighten them with his touque wrench. Anyhow, I told them its ok, don't open (so I can check it out later, which i haven't checked). After paid for the other 3 wheels came out and checked, they freaking scatched my wheel and put some little dents around those holes cuz wasn't carefull enough from trying to take out the damn wheel. *sigh*

I'll go wherever doing the after market wheels next time, even if I have to travel to CT or RI.

Ever since your spotted thread above, I've been on the lookout for you on the Rt. 38 stretch ever since, & haven't come across you. Maybe we'll cross paths there some day. I drive by the Home Depot in the AM either at 6:30ish or at 7:30ish in the AM and at night, around 5:00 or 6:00ish.

LOL....I use that road almost everyday. From UMass Lowell (N.Campus) to N495 from 6-7ish morning and go home 5-7ish afternoon...If you see the car below, its me.
