It doesn't surprise me that they initally told you the alternator was bad when it wasn't. I don't put much faith in their "testing" systems.

As for your tire issues, please start another thread.

You mean to tell me you didn't put an inline fuse in your 12+ to the amp?

Quick things here.

Wire: What gauge did the instructions with the amp say to run for that draw over that distance? Most likely you were pulling too much through a small gauge wire.

Tires: Have ball joints, tie rods and wheel bearings checked before you get an alignment.
