Default Car Wash, I should know better

OK so I have a free car wash coupon for a touchless automated car wash. I take the crossfire through and once I got on the automatic line the track was squeezing the rear tire. Apparently the back tire is to wide for there track. Now my driver rear is messed up on the edge. It looks as if the rim is plastic the way the marks are on it. Now I will have to buy a new 19" for the rear. I should know better but I brought my Cadillac XLR through and it had wide tires but apparently not this wide.

I also learned my lesson on the same type of car wash. When I got to the drying section it pushed hard enough on the gas door to open it and it blew the cover skin of the door off! I was shocked, so I went home and rebuilt the molded part on the back that sheered off out of plastic and epoxy, better than new. I will only hand wash now.
