The management made a point of ripping off at least one customer that I know of. When this sent in tires for recapping, they had a deal with Midstates to disposed of the tires not fit for recapping free of charge.in order to recoup the costs Midstates would steal some of the tires that were fit for recapping. These tires were then resold to other customers.
