A cautionary tale:
I follow a very talented Porsche engine builder on Instagram, cool guy who always goes the extra mile on his builds- in short, someone who's opinion on automotive related quality I would trust without question. A few months back, he purchased the 1552 "outlaw" wheels for his personal 911. He was less than blown away with the build quality of the wheels, and mentioned that he was disappointed with them on his Instagram account. Within the day, Brad from 1552 and his legal team had threatened to sue unless the comments were removed. I will never patronize a business who cannot handle criticism from someone who invested in their product, going so far as to threaten to sue over a social media post. I expect to hear from Brads legal team shortly (IMG:style_emoticons/default/rolleyes.gif) (IMG:style_emoticons/default/finger.gif) |

Talk about "over-reach" if that is true...
Just a thought: "Brad" may have recently graduated from one of our countries universities recently...they're indoctrinating our young folk with silencing all dissenting opinion with threats and hate speech.

Funny opinion but not really true. (About the universities)

Sadly, it is closer to being true than funny. I have a son in college and it is scary what I am hearing him report back (and his friends). Sticking ones head in the sand doesn't make problems go away...they get worse the whole time you're hiding. Our country is in real trouble...enough politics though and back to discussing mediocre wheels.
