PostSubject: New tires ordered...again!   Thu Sep 04, 2008 7:56 pm

Bought a set of Irocs from 4 wheel parts and got the email confirmation saying they are on backorder 2-4 weeks from the factory back on the 29th of aug. I sent an email expressing my displeasure with the status of the tires and especially since the web site didn't say they were not in stock. They did send an email back and said they were sorry and they would get them out as quick as possible. I called today and the "order has been picked and you should receive them in a few days". We'll see if that is true or not. I think next time I will call in my order instead of ordering online and make sure they are in stock at the time of order.
By the way my old bias Iroks were 36x13.5x17 and the new ones are 37x14x17. the tire specifications are identical so I'm not sure if there is an actual difference or not. I'll be able to compare them when they come in since both sets will be on 17x9 rims.

I've already dismounted the old tires from the beadlocks. Wasn't too bad. I took the old tires and mounted them by hand onto the Hummer rims and put those on the CJ. Mounting the new tires on the beadlocks will be a PITA with 32 bolts per wheel and having to use a few longer bolts first to get the ends to meet but I think I have a system now.

I just may give you a call then, probably be next thurs around 6 if the tires truly do get here by then. You could pick up your tires/wheels then too. Next saturday is the RCROCS final and I may drive up there so next chance after thursday is sunday sometime.

Text or Call me. Thursday afternoons are perfect for me cause Emily has call and I tend waste time at the bar if there are no projects to be done.

Iroks were still backordered when I called back to confirm they shipped so I cancelled the order. then ordered a set of Krawlers which I will pick up at the RCRocks event on saturday. Thanks Nick!

the Iroks would not have been here before big dogs and that means I'd have to wheel the tires I sold to Nester. not exactly fair. I really like the Iroks but I'm a little impatient with jeep stuff. I can't sleep right without a good set of rubbers on my heep.

I've had bad customer service with 4wheel parts jjjjjjjjjjj ...good you cancelled order....I ordered shocks for the pick up and they sent the wrong ones twice then gave me major attitude because I told them they weren't correct. Not to mention the second time the guy was pissy and made me pay to ship them back...so I wrote a nasty gram to customer service...they called me almost right away, sent a return UPS address label and refunded all my money including the original shipping charges. Still not going to do business with them anymore...bastards 3

This will be interesting. Maybe Crawlers on bead locks will make a difference in the way they run. I have always been a fan of the IROKS but maybe this will bring new light to the debate.
