Well said Tim....Wheels World will just be another ordinary tyre shop (in a poor location) without John Fowler....basically John is Wheels World and the owners need to realise that. My business follows John and I'm sure the majority of others who use WW will walk away from them if there is no JF.
I think Bob Murray will be turning in his grave.

At the end of the day I hope that sanity can prevail and that some further negotiations can occur...it will be a real shame if it doesn't.
tuna, Intra, BOMB3R and 16 others like this.

I have always been well looked after by the Bridgestone near Canning Highway / Risely Street - I believe its Adross. Near Il Ciao.

Im not sure about "Full Race Spec" cars, but they have always known what im on about when I used to get my GC set to various cambers because I was tracking it. Often see interesting street cars there too.

Staff is a mix of young and older guys. Cant hurt to give em a buzz and have a chat.
