Just for the Head up Guys, I have odered two replacement wheels on 11/30/2004 from Cargraphic usa. I have received the shippment on 12/07/2004.
When I placed the oder with the sales guy name Hersal.
somehow the send me the wrong size and offset on the front wheel.
Okay, everyone make mistake, big freaking deal. I called and spoke with him again. I said he will sent the right one off the shelf and ship back the wrong one.
Waited, waited and waited....... flocking 4 weeks.
call him back about 10 times in the past week:
No return calls, no return emails, No return fax.
Seems like they are trying to hide from me.
Also here is a link that I posted on www.Roadfly.org
http://bimmer.roadfly.org/bmw/forums/e83/6105363-1.html
Seems like I am not the only one got problem with them ****.
Them freaking people in NJ. This is not the way to do business in CA. Never been there but is it a hick town??

Interesting stuff, I have heard of them here in OZ, never knew they were dodgy to deal with, thanks for the heads up. Or is that that same place that makes cargrafic wheels, and they just have a similiar name. I think they make wheels for Ferrari too. Pls correct me if I'm wrong.

I hope you aren't expecting any help from someone in NJ to drive by and see if they are even still in business.

Good time to call your credit card company and dispute the payment.

I bought a 68 AMX from Dave 'fat buddy' Buell in Perth Amboy. Screwed me on the crank...

His hick comment isn't too far from the truth. In Jersey, you're either a city slicker or a beach bum, everything else is hickville.

And, what's with that smell in New Jersey??

Come on now, Scott, don't you think that is a bit of an overgeneralization?
And just who uses the term "city slicker" these days?

The smell you are referring to is on a small stretch of the New Jersey Turnpike near Linden. That smell is from the oil and gas refineries and co-generation plants that provide much of the energy to the area and much of the gasoline we 928 owners in the area need for our big V8's!!

You do live in Saxton, PA, don't you? Population of 787? hmmmm. http://www.city-data.com/city/Saxton-Pennsylvania.html

Plus one decommissioned nuclear reactor? Maybe you shouldn't throw stones:

"And what's with that glowing dirt in Saxton??"

Just having some fun.

By the way, Hicksville is on Long Island, not New Jersey
