    Luckily I don’t drive much, so I’ll just keep mine on and hope most jump on this so the Costco appointments won’t be as crazy when I actually do try to book.

    Every single year after waiting in Costco for 3 hours I tell myself I’ll get it done somewhere else…

      Smart. Have you considered doing it yourself? Goes pretty quick once you get the hang of it.

        If I had room for the tools I totally would. All the tires are on their own rims and everything

          Assuming your car has a scissor jack in the trunk for changing a flat, you can attach a power drill to it and then you just need a torque wrench to torque your wheel nuts.

            This sounds… doable. Might just invest in a torque wrench this year!

              Srs, after a few years of practice it’s a 40min job and gives you a chance to inspect your brakes too.
