Long story short, I waited and waited, and finally these thi gs came in. Opened one, looked good. Until I started looking closer and it looked like the wheel had sandpaper ran across it right before they boxed them up. Nervously I opened all 4, and sure enough they all look like this. Maybe I'm being too picky but I don't think this is right at all. Thoughts?

Vendor they came from ready ensued me back after I emailed about the problem etc, and they're contacting BS first thing Monday. Here are some pics...all separate wheels.






Not bad lookin from a distance!

 

I don't know, when I bought mine they were perfect but they get those light scratches as soon aas you start cleaning them. I use microfiber towels and they still get hairline scratches.

 

That will buff out, looks like who ever packaged them dusted them off first.

 

Maybe I'm being too picky. I don't know.

 

Hell no your not! I got same wheels and mine didn't come that way!

 

It looks like they went to town with a beach towel.

 

yeah your not being pickey at all, my buddy just got a set and his were flawless, yes they will buff out but brand new wheels you shouldnt have to,killer wheels though i think you just made up my mind lol, but for sure i would bitch as well, i agree it looks like they dusted them off with sandpaper, someone didnt know what the hell they were doing, op what color is your car

 

I took pics and sent to the guy I ordered them through. He forwarded them to BS to see what's going to be done. Should be ok, always reassuring when you buy from a reliable vendor.

They're going on my red Ws6.

 

I think someone did a poor job cleaning them before they shipped to you but you can get those light scratches out and they will look right. Gonna look good on that red ws6.

 

Are they just light smears from whatever was on their rag or are they actual scratches? If they are scratches I would be really pissed about that. Send those back if its scratches.

 

They're scratches.

 

Buff the scratches out of your brand new wheels you just bought? How nice to hear that HA! Send those things back.

 

Welcome to polished wheels lol..It will polish out but its kinda like a black car, you have to be extra careful when polishing and dusting off. Sorry to hear a brand new set of wheels look like that!

 

Yeah, sucks. At least it's January and not mid summer. Car is sitting anyways. Lol

 

u can just sell them to me andy hahaha... seriously thats sucks to hear but i bet that guy is right when he says they probably wiped them off with a beach towl ..... ive seen this happen in person.....

 

Man, that sucks. Hopefully it all gets taken care of for you without any problems.
Those wheels are going to look killer on your car too!

 

It will get cleared up easily I'm sure. Just the waiting around to ship them back/get them fixed/shipped back/etc. Not the end of the world. Could be worse I suppose lol.

 

i would be mad, thats not how they are supposed to look.

 

If they are polished aluminum they always look like that. Even after a full polish

 

Not sure what polished aluminum you've been looking at, but you're wrong.
