Now ya just throw your rant out on the net and the chips fall where they fall......Well that's just GREAT.. So while jon should be shipping wheels and trying to do his very best at answering peoples questions he has to take productive time and turn it into non-productive time to defend his position,his passion and his livelhood to this stuff...I have a car we are building and darn near every part weve ordered will not work as delivered,The customer has seen this at all phases and he now realizes what a custom deal his car really is...IF IT WAS EASY, WOULD'NT EVERYONE BE DOING IT ??

Pretty damn well put...as were many comments here.
I have ordered at least 4-5 sets of wheels through Jon,honestly I've lost count.
Now I'd be lying if I said there weren't problems along the way...but none of those were Jon's doing to the best of my memory,but eventually it always comes back to him and I know it can be frustrating,I remember the Forgeline deal...if it were me I may have had to send some visitors,lol.
Point being: Never once did I think it was right to air it on a public forum before allowing Jon time to work his magic,because he always made it right in the end.
Just saying...
