Thumbs up O e wheels!!!

Well i started a couple threads about some problems i was having with my DD C5's about 2 weeks ago. I sent a rim in to get tested and i didnt get anywhere with that so thats why i started a couple threads on here because i was pissed off about the whole deal. I ended up getting a call from LANCE at O E over the threads and we talked about what happened and how i felt about the situation. The end result was that LANCE went above and beyond what he had to do to make the situation right. We worked out a deal that i was more than happy with so i removed the threads i started. I will post pics of my new wheels soon. Also i will still buy from them in the future, especially with the great customer service i recieved from Lance!!! If you ever have any problems just give LANCE a call.

Oe wheels doesnt reply to emails, you have to call. I tried to ask about plain caps like the pics showed and never got a reply off of 2 emails about it.

I got the slp ones but they dont match well.

They gave me a lug nut set for waiting a week for unstocked tires, their product is pretty nice.


Im glad they fixed things for you though, being a sponsor they seem to care some about the customer.

We answer every email that is sent to us. A lot of times emails get sent to junk email folders or spam folders and your internet security just does not let it get through and thinks we are spaming you, but every email gets a reply, just like every question does here on ls1tech. :

I can vouch for this. I've never seen such quick responses from a company. Their customer service truly is amazing given the amount of business they do.

I think I'm scared of bad chrome issues now from OE. I have friends with all kinds of chrome rims and they are 10 years old and look brand new, zero pitting, zero discoloration, or anything.

I'd rather pay another $1,000 and have no problems.

But glad you got your issues worked out.

To be honest with you it could have just been my set that were faulty. Nothing against O. E. but this was the first and last time i will ever buy chrome.
