Tire choice, like most of the other tire places, gives their service representatives commissions on the work that they "recommend" to their customers. So, you can go in for an oil change and some slick dude comes out telling you that if you don't get new brakes you are going to die. So, $750 later you go out with new brakes that you may or may not need. This happened to me a few years back. I decided to take the vehicle to a mechanic that I trusted (Accutech) and I didn't need new brakes at all. That is the last time that I set foot in Tire Choice and I do go out of my way to tell friends not to go there.
