Default Florida Panhandle People: Avoid Restylers Shop

For all of you that are in the FL panhandle near Ft. Walton or Destin, I would suggest you avoid using a particular aftermarket shop in the area.

Restylers has terrible service and are incapable of performing simple installs.

I had new tires put on and tires rotated and aside from scratching every single one of my wheels terribly and then denying it and saying it was curb rash (the two obviously look completely different) they couldn't even properly seal the tires so that the didn't leak.

On top of all that they treat the customer like crap and try to lie and fabricate stories.

Some other folks told me to avoid them but I thought it was worth the slightly cheaper install.....

DUDE! I was standing there when that guy (GFortheCPE) Was in there Complaining, and He told them that he Rode on the Tire for a few miles before he filled it up, He "Thought" He could make it to the store, Thats retarded, and then to try and blame Restylers for it being messed up? WoW! I got my Rims put on the same day they were flawless, Wheels/Tires/ Everything not a scratch or nick... Plus they were cheaper and the guys were cool. I think that guy just needs to settle down and come to realize it was his fault instead of blaming someone else and make and excellent shop in town look bad.

Appreciate the information.

If you hear numerous negative comments about something or someone---then at least some of that info is probably true. but...

Recommend keeping your constructive criticism to the facts and let other people make their own decisions. It will limit the amount of criticism you will receive in return.

for the record this is Chris, the salesman there trying to play off as a customer. he's just trying to defend restylers by lying

chris...common...get real man. stop lying. this is the SAME username you have on half your other forums. as for touchless? there's nothing touchless about the machine restylers uses. as a matter of fact the only reason it's a machine made to not scratch rims is b/c it has these little nylon pieces that cover all the parts that come in contact with the wheel....but they wear out quick. once those are off it's metal on metal contact. the problem is in the 4 years i worked there for the past 2-3 years the owner never replaced those covers b/c he didn't want to spend the money. i'm not saying that restylers scratched them....all i'm doing is pointing out you trying to cover up anything and everything

Unless you "know" the people that work there, No shop in FWB is good IMO. I always take pics before, during and after installation of wheels/tire because of the distrust in the shops here in the area
