Default Privat profil GP...Backorder update

Hey guys...no good news. You all bought me out. Hell, ya bought out the whole company. Privat is now on a 8week backorder. I have two sets of 18" silver left. You can snag those, or you can have them custom painted however you wish...for an additional charge.

Did I get my order in before you ran out. I spoke to you on the phone Tuesday and today. You told me they were going to ship this week. What's up?
I ordered 18x9.5 black with nitto tires shipped to NC.

Yeah I can say that no one in my area has them, but how all of a sudden they got so popular is crazy.

When everyone posts their cars with the Privats I'm going to post mine with my Z06's so I can have the rare wheels.

I called Privat Wheels (Conig) yesterday and asked about the backorder on the black Profils. They told me 6-8 weeks. Which is funny (not really) because thats the same thing they told me 6-8 weeks ago. Are they doing the machine work by hand with a friggin dremel or what???!!!

I got them all in, but one of them is damaged, so I'm stuck with three perfect rims and one scratched up rim sitting in my closet at home. I really want to just put them on anyway, but I don't want to have to end up eating a rim because they won't take back a rim that's been mounted. I hate to even look at them right now. Just makes me sick. Todd tried really hard to find me a replacement and has me on the waiting list for a new one. He has been great and I definetly can't complain about his customer service.
I got all of my 295's sold and bought some 275 8080E Dunlops for fairly cheap. They are just sitting in the garage. I'm about ready to just say f@ck it and sell it all.

2 of mine also had problems too. since it was my daily driver and i had to give the other rims back to the original owner he told me to take pics of the rims that were damaged and mount them up. Im still waiting on replacements too.

I can't seem to get any answers from anyone on this, so I will try here as a last resort for answers. The original 8 weeks has come and gone since my original order and now the factory is telling me 8 more weeks. They also mentioned that since there were no orders for them they will not expidite the manufacturing of the wheels. That's strange, because I KNOW I have an order place for some. Now we are going into the 11th week of perma back order.
