Without the vehicle being present, DT does not have to worry about liability and will sell to the consumer's wishes.

I can verify that they won't exceed approved sizes for a vehicle in my experience - been told no twice over the years. Both times they had the vehicle and I wanted new upsized tires....just wanted ones too big.....even though the ones they were taking off were the size I was requesting (put on by an individually owned shop in another town).
