I know a lot about cars but I don’t know much at all about tires. I told them this right out of the gate. They then sold me tires that do not fit and caused me to have an accident. Luckily nobody was hurt, but if I was killed you can guarantee they would be sued and they would lose. So, it really doesn’t matter what their policy is, you can’t misrepresent something in order to make a sale.
Wasn't a dig on you or Jegs but every tire company that my shop has ordered tires through in the last 25 years won't take a tire back that's been mounted ,if you get them replace the tire more power to you , Now if Jegs didn't install them on the rim and the car I think responsibility would fall on you but I'm not an attorney , just an auto mechanic for 44 years

I didn’t take it as a dig and Jegs policy is that they will not accept returns after they have been mounted. I’m just saying in this case they are legally responsible. If they don’t have the right tires for my vehicle, they can’t lie to me and tell me something will fit just to make the sale. In my case it caused thousands of dollars worth of damage to my car. I’m not a lawyer, but I would try and sue them, and for a lot more than the cost of the tires, if they didn’t let me return these.
ETA: I should note that when I ordered the replacement tires from Summit, even though I had confirmed with the help of a local tire shop that they would fit, they would not guarantee fitment. They expressly said that once mounted I can’t return them and I should have my tire place measure and make sure these will fit before mounting.
