I was in a hurry and knew I had extra bolts at home but when I think about it I'm kinda like wtf..u guys fix it

He pointed out on the threads that they were slightly stretched and showed fatigue which I could agree with

Thoughts?

So I tweeted kal tire the situation, they gave me an email address to email them the story

3 hours later the same guy I dealt with phones me up and books me in to fix the stud for free lol

Twitter is great for holding feet to the fire if they use social media
