The money is worth the peace of mind.

Also, my old auto teacher won't appreciate someone who isn't taking the class and isn't associated with the high school bringing their car in. Try not to make offers that you cannot fulfill.

That sounds like a pretty handy hook-up to have if you could take advantage of it, though. I suppose you may not want to get caught if you're not supposed to, though.

That does sound like a handy hook-up and I'm sure Anthony can appreciate that, but I agree, not in school. I'd have to side with Anthony here. That would be like looking for a book in a grocery store instead of a library.

I'd only mount tires in private...it could be potentially embarrassing if your friends found out.

Don't lie... you'd start mounting everyone's tires out of your garage.
