      Business Response

      Date: 09/18/2023

      This customer bought ********************** a little over a year ago from our ***** store not this one, he saw a display of BBS wheels he asked for those, we explained him we itll be $6000 for the rims only and a 2-3 month build time, he tells us i want that style then cheaper, we found him JNC wheels that had a similar look for $1900 Rims and Tires, we did not sell him fake wheels, they are from an actual DOT business, he saw them in the boxes before as we show our customers the product before we install them. He loved them and we installed them, now he damaged his wheels, and he came in requesting new rims because he claimed we sold him fake brand rims. We are a well-established business small business, we don't run our business with false information as we wouldn't still be at this same address for over 10 years.
