Well I must have been one of the lucky ones I guess because in all my dealings with Jon Henson over the years...5 1/2 sets of wheels/tires for all my cars (including my DD),I never had an issue with the man and would trust him like a brother.

Until I hear from him specifically as to what's gone on here,I won't speculate and will certainly give him the benefit of the doubt.

i wont speak on southrods dealings BUT regarding your dealings it was all aired out (both sides) and i dont know about others but my conclusion was your situation wasn't john fault at all... cheer-leading's got nothing to do with it..

Your view is certainly NOT MINE, and cheer-leading has everything to do with it.

There is no speculation or doubt as to what happened to me . Parts were not ordered ( about a month ) until i called ridetech directly to get the ball rolling then after another couple of weeks go by still no parts , ridetech calls Driverz & gets " there is no money to pay you " to make a long story short .

I wasn't going to post this since I thought my story was a fluke but here it goes. I ordered my Fesler wheels from DriverzInc. They took 9 months to get here. After about 16 weeks I was getting VERY pissed off. Chris Fesler told me that they were never paid for (I left half deposit) so they never ordered from Asanti. Jon said that it was Feslers fault. There were a lot of fingers pointing on who was at fault. Finally it got to the point to where I was going to do a chargeback on my card.

I started dealing with Fesler directly. Well I finally got my wheels after dealing direct to the source.

Jon did always answer his phone and give good customer service when I called him everyday looking for my missing wheels.
