Allen, its prob partially my fault for not doing my homework but at the same time, i was taking his word that they were what he said they were and didnt feel the need to doubt him or investigate it. But yeah, maybe it was an honest mistake on his part. I just know if the situation was reversed, i'd take responsibility for listing them incorrectly whether i was told the same thing when i bought them or not. He's the seller in this situation and he should know what hes selling and for that, he should be responsible for making sure i get what i paid for. Know what i mean?

Ill post some pics tonight. I just need to get on my laptop after work so i can upload them to photobucket and post them. Or... I can email them if you pm me an email or text me at the number listed above. As far as the center caps fitting or not, i haven't tried them personally but i'll take your word that they wont fit. Im sure replacements can be ordered though if needed. Shouldn't be hard to get now that we know what wheels they are.

All good man. **** happens. Told the guy I'd try to sell em first before anything else. I mean with the tires and with fresh Powdercoat, they are worth the money. I just prefer the accessory wheels or I'm going to suck it up and spend the money for those staggered 19's and be done.

I would go through paypal, if your time hasn't expired. If he doesn't respond to the paypal dispute you can get your money back plus keep the rims.
My girlfriend bought me an antique cymbal monkey for a gift, the seller described it as working. When you press on the head is supposed to open its mouth an shake, well that part never worked. It still banged its cymbals and is still cool, so my gf tried contacting the seller saying we would keep it but wanted some money back. After numerous attempts she opened a dispute, the seller never responded, and my gf got her money back plus we got to keep the monkey. Of course the seller contacted us immediately after, wanting us to ship the thing back. But F them, they had plenty of chance to get hold of us.
Kinda off topic, but it only took about 3 weeks I think.

Lol! That's a cool lil monkey. My time to dispute it hasn't expired. Just trying to make the best of the situation and get my money back out of them sooner than later. I'll prob post them on Craigslist and maybe eBay. I'm sure someone will want them. If nothing happens quick, I'll def be exploring my other options to get my money back.

Lol! That's not my ride bro. That's the guys car that sold em to me. He sent me those so I could see what the gloss black would look like on silver. They really don't look bad, just not really the look that I'm going for. Someone will buy em though I'm sure.

He said he had the fenders done custom. I'm not a big fan of vents but its different.

Even though his misrepresented those wheels, the picture look good enough to tell those arent the accessory wheels, 9 spoke vs 7 spoke? Hope it works out for you in the end.

And for the guy saying keep them and get a refund if he doesnt respond... I dont know how thats possible. Paypal isnt suppose to issue a refund until after you provide them with a tracking number proving you shipped the wrong / damaged item(s) back and it shows as delivered.

Dunno the ups and downs of paypal but I got a monkey and my gf got her money back.
I figure it's because the seller didn't respond to paypal.

I didn't pay super close attention. He said they were the accessory wheels and I saw gloss black split spokes. I'm sure u can understand how it would be easy to think they were at a quick look on a small pic. Didn't think I had any reason to doubt what he told me.

While I would have seen the difference I certainly don't fault you for not noticing. I have seen those wheels many times over the 3 years I had mine. I still think pink would look sick.

I didn't even realize they made another wheel similar to the accessory wheels for the V so when I saw em, I didn't think anything of it.

Pink would be sick lol

Isnt the Mille's only 8" wide while the stock wheels are 8.5"? That's why people don't like/buy them.

Didn't check em to be honest. Looked the same as stock to me but I'll check the back of em.

If that's the case though... Thanks for killing the potential for a sale lol jk
