Mooty wants to see if someone can help him out, no need for the above comment. I would purchase the fronts from him if I was still running Nitto.

I'll have to agree with Dave here.

Mooty sucks; big time.
Last year he gave me some belt receptacles for free and I had to wait 15 days to receive them.
Unacceptable.

Another time he had his wife carry some 40pound stuff for me across the local USPS office. A woman touching my GT3 parts?
Fail.

Caveat emptor..

Mooty is awesome to hang out at the track and he got your back(literally on my *** on track). A great friend!!! Anyway tires are brand spanking new. Why should they be discounted? Mike

Mooty is horrible, he sold me a GT3 RS, and when I got home the car had a bunch of brand new spares in the trunk that I did not buy from him, horrible.

When i barely knew him we communicated almost daily day after day after day, helping spec my new trailer. Sum total of hours in phone convo, text, email. Then one day i had to wait maybe 20-30 minutes for a call back. Can you believe that guy?

ah, that's why u are still not on studs. I ordered 100 studs and nuts. not apex, but very very high quality stuff. take a careful look at them next time. it's about 10x the price or maybe 20x price of apex. I think rad would love this set. and nope, I can't tell u my source.

He could charge a premium for this tires. Quicker better service than TireRack and better packed. Probably comes with some extra's and Mooty owned stuff is very carefully inspected.

I bought Mooty's CCW wheels way back when I was new on this forum. Dealing with Mooty has made me stay on this forum...;-)

You boys are a sensitive bunch, certainly not used to getting poked in the eye ... I think Mooty's comment " Watch your tone" was the funniest, still laughing at that one.
