John charged me club rates to install the coilovers and alighnment etc. Mind you that was still $80 something bux per hour. But that was also the first time I had dealings with him. I'd like to think next time we'll come to a formal agreement on labour charges. For that price I was looking around to see where the hookers were LOL.

But this is getting waaaayyyyy off topic!

Hmmmm - today I just had 4 tyres removed from 4 rims and 4 replacement tyres put back on - cost me a lot less than $120.

Thieving cunt hey?

Who did you deal with, John or Bob?

I had 4 pirelli p zeros fitted to 4 bbs forged rims, maybe he thought this guy's got money, I'll rip him?? I really don't know his reason.

Perhaps you should ask him before calling him a thieving cunt.

I have dealt with both Bob & John over many years and have been very happy with their service & price.

Perhaps I should have asked for a price, but
I made the mistake of going by the precedent that John set,
good work for a fair price.
Bob proved that wrong!

NOT REALLY

ONCE BITTEN TWICE SHY.

He has lost a trade customer and frequent recommendations.

I'll just be sending customers/money elsewhere.

He'll be losing more $ than me because of this.

Im sure he'd be worried ..... What with all Porsche, Ferrari, Maseratti, evo, and Wrx boy's that still deal with him, I bet he's shitting hmself......UMM NOT!

Had sway bars (I supplied), springs and wheel alignment done for $400 fitted.

Bought RS2's aswell and couldn't be happier! (and I'm a Trade client too )

Well as you would expect they lost my business, and I certainly don't recommend them to anyone anymore.
Is it ok if I call you a FUCKSTICK for calling Bob the above over a whopping $54. Why don't you take them to your local Tyre Power next time so we can read your thread about how they fucked your rim or put your tyre on the wrong way. Character assasination on a forum is tough as, maybe next time man up and say something about the price before you hand over your cash.
