Rotated my tires and had the shimmies. Went in to cure my shimmy, got it balanced and aligned at BIG O Tire. Got my truck back and they gouged my wheel?! What do I do? It's not a perfect rig, but I promise I was nice the whole time?

You can't have anything nice. Be glad they didn't crossthread and strip a few lugs while they were at it. Or did they?

You talking the scratches below the lug nut or the scraped up stuff around the center cap or that white stuff at the lug nut that looks like it is some white thing on the lens? If the scratches are just in the clear coat you can probably touch it up.

Did you go back and show them the scratches, s—t happens but it is how they handle it that makes the difference. I had Discount scratch 2 wheels on one of my vehicles I showed them and they arranged for a wheel repairman come to my home and take care of them. Perfect job could not even tell they were repaired
