Me either. Pick up the car tonight all things going as planned. But the place i ordered my new lugs from screwed up and I had to reorder them... Knew when I just hit the go button on their coupon code area and it took off $10 it was a bad idea. But how is it my fault they let that happen?

ANyway they refunded me and I repurchaced at full price... Mcgards are expencive.

How long did it take you to receive your wheels...I had heard that people were waiting MONTHS for them, which was the main deterrent for me. What are your plans for your stock rims?

The initial batch took a painfully long time, but wheeldude.com should have some in stock now. I would just call them and ask if you're interested.
