I'd very much appreciate keeping all comments to a minimum (or none at all) until I am certain this will work out which should be tomorrow or Monday. Thanks and I hope you all understand.

Think they learned a lesson here?
The "List" can be a powerful marketing tool, orrrrrrr not......, because bad news travels as fast as the speed of light...... 'specialy when the bad news involves a popular 'lister.
Let us know how it works out Chuck, the troops are on standby...........

I wanted to post an update to this situation. Today the iForged wheels were delivered again to my home. Vince has lived up to his word and the wheels were in the same condition as they were when I last returned them to iForged. They were in new boxes as promised (after all, they went back and forth across the country 5 times). Settlement was this: The $1150 charge will not be chellenged or disputed by me, I also paid an additional $100 to ship the wheels back to me again (I offered). I will in turn remove my previous comments about this situation from this post. I believe this post is the only time I ever mentioned them by name (I think there was one other post - I'll search).
Now, I have to find a way to make shorter lug nuts that seat properly. Any ideas?
OBTW, H, Thank you so much for your personal involvement in moving this issue forward. Your efforts made a difference and are much appreciated. I owe ya one!

Chuck I would try the open ended steel nuts and cut off the exposed end of some alloy nuts and use them to screw on the exposed end of the studs a bit like a lock nut.

Matt, there is not enough meat on the centers to machine it down enough to make the correct lug nuts sit flush.
Chuck, glad you guys worked things out.

Jim has a very good idea! Then all you would have to do is buy plastic nut caps! They come in chrome, silver or black and look like real lug nuts, but stupidly cheap. I have my original black ones underneath.
