i know the group 4's would piss on all opposition but since they dont make em i gotta settle for less... my day will come hehe

And you think DMS are inferior to G4's? Think again my man!
Tested, tried and proven....

Not saying G4's are not good...they are very good...but they ain't neccessarily "THE"

years of dealings or paying for john's vacations? they charge AT LEAST $40 a tyre more than anywhere else..

i got some quotes that were nearly $90 a tyre different from john..

then a forum member got some new rubber from WW same brand as the ones i bought from the tyre factory locally.. he paid all up $480 more than me fitted and i got 235's and he got 225's.. if i had a race car johns a whizz at geometry but marking up tyres on that basis is pretty crap.. dont take it to heart but you must have deep pockets and a small head(flame on)

now ive had my little rant i feel better
