Customer review: Daly City Tire & Auto

December 11, 2009

Another customer review of Daly City Tire & Auto:

My first time here and I have no complaints. I came in for 2 new front tires and asked for their cheapest rate. The tires I ordered were due to come in the next morning so I was requested to come back. I came in the next morning as instructed and unfortunately 1 of the tires in my order did not come in. Since I was already charged and was told to come back, the same kind representative who had rang me up the day prior gave me an upgrade in tires which would of normally costed me almost $100 more but, he only charged me $10 more for the inconvenience. Now thats excellent service!

My car is running much smoother now and I’ll definitely be back in 2 wks to get the rear tires replaced. My car was ready in an hour.

I forgot the name of the kind gentleman who helped me but I think he was Filipino, either way thanks again!


An easy fix for tires that will not stay properly inflated

December 9, 2009

Q: I have a 1998 Subaru Legacy Outback with 100,000 miles. The current Michelin tires were new at 70,000 miles. The problem is trying to keep them properly inflated. Three of the four constantly drop to 20 psi, and I have to fill them each week. If there were a leak, wouldn’t they go flat?

A: Most likely, the problem is with the rims. It’s not unusual that the rims rust out on the Subaru cars. However, we don’t have to throw these rims out. Most shops that sell tires can grind down the rust on the rim bead. After all the rust has been removed, a bead sealer compound is applied to the bead edge of the rim and allowed to dry. At that point, the tire is remounted on the rim, inflated, leak-tested and balanced. And just like that, your problem is resolved.

Rumormill: $170k BMW M3 GT/GT4 Street probably not coming to U.S.

November 3, 2009

Well..IF they do make it to U.S. soil and over to the SF Bay Area, we hope to see one come by the shop:

No three letters get Bimmer fans as riled up as CSL. The initials have historically been applied to lightweight, performance-focused versions of BMW’s most extreme machinery. But while BMW isn’t currently offering any CSL models for public consumption, the emergence of an M5 CSL and spy shots of a potential M3 CSL have Munich’s followers frothing at the mouth.

The former turned out to be a one-of-a-kind special. But details on the latter are beginning to circulate, and they look promising. Firstly, sources suggest that the model won’t wear the CSL designation at all, and instead be labeled either M3 GT or M3 GT4 Street, in reference to the homologated racing version.
