Soon everyman and his dog will have Simmons again, therefore rendering them 'just another wheel' Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Especially if the new owners don't prostitute the product and offer them for "$1499 with tyres fitted and balanced" - this would be a silly move and they would do themselves out of alot of dollars!

I think that it is fantastic and I can't wait to get me hnds on a set for my project.. I guess that the only people that will complain will be the greedy people that have a bought a set and expected to sell them off for a large gain....
