Question Got my replacments wheels....and

Well i decided to just get two more GS wheels to replace the two i busted instead of getting the Fikses. They came in quick, ordered friday and came in yesterday.

Funny thing is, a second set showed up today. Now should i be an honest citizen and call them and tell them to pick up the second set or should i just wait it out and see if they call. I've checked my account and only one set has been was charged.

Now my other two wheels that i have look good, minor nicks from every day driving but i sure wouldn't mind have 4 new bright and shiney wheels.

keep em for a couple weeks before you put em on, if they dont say anything then sell the 2 old ones and throw them new ones on

they charge you a ridiculous amount for some metal anyway

You should at least call them. This mistake is in your favor, but at the same time someone else will have to pay for it.
