I assume i've put in my .02 on this thread since it got sent to my phone....but since i'm trying to read it from my phone.....i'll add my info again.

Licensed realtor for a little over a year, but more recently i've been on the home remodel side of homes.....tear outs, additions, fences, deck, hardwood laying/refinishing, etc. I figure the two compliment each other well. Feel free to contact me about either if you need anything.

we do them...but not to long ago we didnt. It is just a liability for us. Not everyone on the crew knows what they are, and if they arent put on right, some how, it becomes our responsibility. Plus even though your car may be legit, some people use spacers that allow only 3-4 threads into the lug nut/bolt. It is just much easier if we dont do them. Same thing with wire wheels, but i surely hope you dont have wires on your bimmer. :) If ya bring your car to me in Spanaway, ill balance um for ya. :)

but...if you don't put em on right, it is your fault...now if the spacers aren't right, or the bolts aren't right, then it's the owners fault.

yes theoretically, but you shouldn't be to surprised about the number of attempted lawsuits when something is done with the owners consent and the wheel comes off while driving. Ever heard of the lady suing McDonalds for serving her "too hot" coffee? We just don't deal with them for a security reason, no matter what the theoretical facts are.
