Joe, everything has fallen in place and hopefully you will get your wheels soon, today I got a credit from fed ex for $5200 and that covers everything they had charge for the wheels going back and forth , let's start this over again...

how F'en insane is that for shipping actually...glad certainly that they finally credited it, but

Love to see the breakdown Rudy, that's much more than the $4400 credit I expected..should have been no import or duty fee's since I never took delivery, and there are none of that regarding a return shipment according to Fed Ex.

Here's hoping they get here, for the "quoted" price, undamaged.

Just in time for xmas. I'm glad it worked itself out, it'll be all a bad dream once you have them mounted. Looking forward to those pics.

well, wheels are sitting a mere 20 miles from me now...scheduled to be delivered tomorrow. Other rennlister got his delivered today, one damaged barrel.

Only other possible sources of future drama;
-wheel(s) damaged in shipping..again
-Fed ex bill another stratospheric amount instead of the quoted $ with confirmation #
-wrong offset/width/center color.

Hopefully, 2 of those 3 will be taken off the list tomorrow.

Then onto the rest of the bits...and yes, that does include tires...but not fender flares.

arrived today...surprisingly no damage. Center color is darker than I imagined, the flourescent lights probably don't help there either. The rears have huge dish...don't feel terribly heavy either. I'll get exact weights this weekend, as well as test fitting them on the car(sans tires), and check OEM center cap fittment. Better pics then also...

Still gotta get the car up in the air, and formulate my winter to-do list.

All that's left is Fed Ex charging way above quoted shipping price. Well, I have a friend in corporate now, so I'm confident that there can be some resolution there.

Anyway...initial pics. More to follow this weekend
