If you can, keep an eye out on what they're doing.
Last time I was in for a changeover (winters to all-seasons) at a certain place in Mississauaga (not sure if I should say who/where it is), the guy who was doing the switch maybe got distracted (phone call, run to the can, etc) and didn't tighten one of the lug nuts on the right-back wheel (happened to be the wheel lock). It wasn't until a week later that I noticed the lug nut totally gone. Bastards.

Why not mention the shop? So others can be informed. ???

I did my last tire change (winters to summers) at the dealer. In my case, at MOT. Can't remember the exact cost but I think it was around $30 or so.

How much does a shop usually charge to switch tires. Meaning taking out stock tires and put winter tires on the stock 17 rims?
I got charged $60 at tires 3000

No you read right :)

$10 cash to swap (taking off summer rims and putting on winter rims)

I'm not talking about taking off the tires and mounting tires etc. Im talking straight swappage
