Baby has a new pair of shoes...
Purchased a set of Sumitomo's from Tire Rack and had them installed last night. The tire changer, before lifting the Vette, opened the hood,
the hatch, the doors and the gas lid. When asked why, he said he didn't want to crack anything per his instructions.
Standard operating procedure?

Sometimes opening & closing the door with the car jacked can be a real PITA
We in doubt, take precautions.
I'd rather see a shop take precautions than not.
Shows they care about your car.

I can do that right now. This is my second set. What I purchased was the Sumitomo's HTR-Z 17'x2.75x40. They were $92.00 each. I got 35,000 miles on the first set and for Florida, thats great.
