I wonder if that's New Albany as in Columbus Ohio? We have some real winners at the Walmarts around here.

I had an old beater car that had 4 different tire widths. (Junkyard stuff I ended up with from a couple of cars) They refused to sell me 4 tires all the same size, only the exact size that was on each wheel. I asked to see the manager, but he was just as stupid as the other guy.

There were about 3 or 4 other people waiting in line, and I asked them if they really wanted someone this stupid working on THEIR car. Two of them followed me out.

New Albany, IN

They would only sell you the same sized (mis-matched) tires that were on your car? LOL. They could look up your car model on the computer and have the correct tire size in 30 seconds.

Local tire shop has a sign outside:

“Why buy your tires at a grocery store?”
