25 years ago when I bought my 911 I got it 100 miles home from Tulsa, OK where I bought it. I noticed the next morning one tire was really low. So I aired it up and drove to work, knowing there is a major family owned tire shop a few blocks from work. At lunch time I ran over there.
He used a floor jack on the side jack point. Yea, they had a Porsche jack pad. He removed the aluminum lugs with a hand pull handle, and they dismounted the tire, patched the hole on the inside, and TORQUED the lugs with a torque wrench. All no charge.
I wrote them a nice analog letter. They mailed me a nice jacket with the company logo on it. I was real sad when the family sold to a big tire chain.
