LeoRavus 01/31/23 7:02:00 PM #1:	It was before work that I had them changed and I made it to work fine. 10 hours later I try to go home an one is all the way flat, rim on the ground. My spare is under the vehicle and wouln't lower. Something was froze up. So I walked home in 35 degree rain in the dark. I have no idea what could have caused it other than something Walmart did wrong. Never had a complete flat before this. Not sure what to do now besides having it towed to a shop. Fuck Walmart. --- This is where cool people write stuff. <cite>LeoRavus posted [p:971239094] in Had my tir...

But it's an awful big coincidence it happens hours after they installed new tires.

They generally are there to shut a person up and give them what they want. If that doesn't succeed, every Store Manager's picture is posted up front by the entrance and demand to see them.

They've done that to me enough that I got a little wrench to torque them back in. https://gamefaqs.gamespot.com/a/user_image/5/6/0/AAEhCpAAEJB4.jpg I'll definitely invest in one of those. Part of the reason why I got new front tires was a leaky valve stem and I had to keep inflating it. When I took off the cap I could hear air coming out. Should have looked into a fix but it was time to replace them anyway.

LeoRavus 02/01/23 6:08:50 PM #23:	So managed to inflate the tire and make it back to Walmart. They replaced the valve stem and it seems to be holding. Still though how the hell could they not tell it was leaking when they inflated the tire? When I filled it to 35 psi the valve was hissing like a mf. No way could they not have heard that. I probably should have asked for a gift card or something for wasting gas going back. --- This is where cool people write stuff. <cite>LeoRavus posted [p:971261391] in Had my tir...
