Winter wheels

Heya guys, winter is creeping up on us and I am just checking to see if anyone needs my help looking for a set of winter rubber and or rims. So I am just doing a survey. If the response is good, I will look at doing my best to provide a service to all the local T.O and general area members.

I will post an official ad in the CLASSIFIED section and yes this has absolutely nothing to do with my current company of employement. This is all privately done, as I believe most people should never pay retail!


I helped alot of great G35 members here, and many other people with different vehicles, and I really enjoyed doing the above services for people. These days prices are really hard to match, but I can always try my best. And will try to accommodate your request. And yes I work the 12 hour day shift like every other - so most of this help, comes at night or on the weekends. Give me a shot, you can email me your needs to: mogiemo@gmail.com

MODS, if I have violated any FORUM rules with this POST please just let me know so that I can move it to the appropriate section. Or email me, for specific instructions. Thanks!

Hey Jerry, that's cool man, and a great offer. TNX. You've really helped me with winter wheels and tires in the past and I'm sure everyone much appreciates your help this time too.

Hope all is well with you.

Colin.

I voted for best price.


I have a Town Fair Tire and Firestone less than a mile from my place now. I'd rather give a sponsor or G-member the business and worst comes to worst, have them installed locally.

I am also looking for OE 17s so that my 18s stay pristine.

best and cheap usually don't go together in the same sentence. you gotta pay to play.

tires are a commodity, i think price is what will sell - especially on forums

Not necessarily true.

I've always said that you can sell a product or service using 3 parameters, of which the consumer will pick 2: FIRST, BEST, CHEAPEST

So you can have FIRST + BEST, BEST + CHEAPEST, etc.

Tires are commodity, so FIRST is automatically ruled out (unless you're the FIRST to offer home-installation), so you're likely going to have to sell on BEST (i.e., fastest delivery) and CHEAP (i.e., best price).

Since I'm in no rush to get my winter tires (which I am in the market for right now), I'm looking for CHEAPEST as my primary decision factor.

Hey everyone - sorry for the late reply, both my PC's decided to suffer a breakdown, so I have been PC -less I have contacted my suppliers and I am diligently working on items for those who have emailed me- which BTW I have changed to my email to: qraftwerkz@gmail.com please bear with me as I am in the process of rebuilding all my files....sadly most of which I have to play phone tag with the suppliers. But I can pretty much say thanks for the patience! Jerry
