TIRE EXPRESS THEY PULLED THE OLD "BAIT & SWITCH" SAN DIEGO, California

The manager quoted me over the phone for a set of new KELLY tires.  It was pouring rain and he told me if I brought my car in right then, he would do the whole job for $300.   When I took my car in I noticed yellow dots on the side walls.  He told me they were "inspection" marks.  They finished putting the tires on and it was still pouring rain.  I gave him my credit card, (he wouldn't take a check) and he sent me on my way.

A couple of days later, I looked at my new tires and they weren't KELLY tires at all!  They were Geruttis - some asian knock-off and about $15 a tire cheaper than the KELLY tire I thought I was getting!  I got out my receipt and he had written me a receipt for 4 new KELLY tires!  I got on the phone and internet to investigate.

I called him and he tried to tell me that Gerutti was made by (or was a subsidiary) of KELLY tires.  I called the company and was told they never even heard of Gerutti.  )I also found out that the "yellow dot" was not an inspection mark at all.  It designates SUMMER tire. 

After arguing with him, he said he would warranty the tires and I told him I didn't want them.  He said he could order me the Kelly tires I already had bought from him once - but at an added price and it wouldn't be cheap.  That is not acceptable to me.
