their eBay feedback seems to indicate a pretty decent product. WHat few negs I could find seemed to be minor shipping snafu's or wrong center caps...lot's of thumbsups for the products, tho!

I just gave them a phone call to find out where they are, he claimed that they were boxed up and in a warehouse and he wouldn't let me come take a look. However he said that I am welcome to come pick them up if I decided to purchase them on eBay...

Well, now I am interested. He couldn't show them to you on an existing car? You can tell him he has 5 potential sales here if he'll just open a box. SH*T, I will take the opened box!

This guy is calling BS on me, he wont let me come take a look at them, and he doesn't beleive that many people are interested and are ready to pay pending my review on them....

So anyone that is interested should give Chris a call at:
1-866-273-3651


He says his "$5,000 digital camera" pictures are better than my eyes, everyone call him and tell them you want me to come take a look before you buy.

That sounds really shady if you can't come look at the wheels.....give me a break.....how hard is it to open a box, take a look..then tape them back up to ship to someone??

Okay I just got off the phone with Chris....he has been getting several calls & he guarantees the wheels with a 1 year finish warranty and lifetime structural warranty....he sounds quite confident in the wheels...but also was not willing to have Ross take a look at the rims, saying they are in a wharehouse behind the shop and it would be to difficult to get one for inspection.....he continued that he sells several hundred wheels a day... and all are for high end cars...BMW, Porsche, Lexus etc & 98.5% are happy with the wheels? He didn't have weights but he said they are solid spokes and around 28 lbs (didn't say front or rear) He said he would weigh one tomorow and post the info on ebay
