They put the tires on within the past two months. Had I been able to see it in person I would have made a stink about it. And I didn't think to ask them to verify the tire sizes they put on. I had been asking lots of other questions, but didn't expect a dealer to fit the wrong size tire. Mea culpa.
You may want to keep the "VPS" as the front of the Crossfire takes a beating and will chip paint for certain when traveling on roadways. VPS does a much better job at protecting from gravel and sand grit than ceramic. Have a detailer remove the bubble, but leave the vinyl protective film or replace it in kind.
