Well it's after midnight and I haven't ordered them. So the sale is over. I will look into their reputation. I heard a few good things about them on here so I didn't give it a second thought but after hearing that... Anyway where do you guys buy your wheels? OE? Do they carry 505's?

WOW... I could only find one good review and I read quite a few. And all the good one said was that they were cheap. I am VERY glad you guys warned me. Thank you very much.

Told you man. I read the reviews after I ordered. Now I'm sitting here 6 weeks later with no money and no rpms. I'm calling them today for a tracking number or a refund.

Well I had planned to call them at 2pm, at 1pm I got an email with 4 tracking numbers from UPS. I'll keep you posted on what if anything actually comes in. Maybe they are going to make this right. Doesn't matter though, I still will never purchase from them again nor will I suggest others to. Customer service was TERRIBLE!!

Yeah I read all those a week after I ordered. When I called them I asked them about all the bad reviews and they just said "Oh well". UPS says I have 4 40lb packages coming and the invoice says they are 19' 505's so well see later this week. Check out wheel studio.com, I know they carry r505's.

If one package is 40 lbs, can you post up how much the rims weigh when you get them?

Tires should already be mounted (thats what I paid for). But I can weigh them if you still wanna know.

There is a local S2k with chrome RPM's... They are nice, but it's way too much "bling" chrome for me. Hyper silver is perfect. I loved my HP evos.

Haha how funny; just got off the phone with wheelsnext to follow up on an order i placed Jan17 for my rpms(19x9.5s in hpyersilver). They did tell me it would be a month or two, but as of today (five mins.ago) no ETA on the wheels. But they did have the 18s in hypersilver. Gonna wait it out luckily im not in a hurry but may start lookin somewhere else in a few weeks.

How long were you on hold before you actually got to talk to someone. Not that they are any help. There was only one guy that actually helped me (Sean). All the others were morons. One guy didnt even bother to check on my order, just told me to wait a week and call back. I pray that my wheels come in Wednesday as scheduled now without problems so I never have to deal with them again!

when I finally got thru I was on hold for prolly 10-15min, havnt had the bad luck of talkin to reps like u have had, they all seemed helpful. Im guessing these are just popular wheels, after all great minds think alike

Well I ordered Black Gloss 18's that were supposedly coming from Cali. They are sending me 19's that got shipped from Florida. They are scheduled to be here tomorrow so Ill post up what I actually get. Ill be happy with black or hypersilver.

Soooo... they're sending you 19's instead of the 18's like you wanted, and you're ok with that? What size tires are they sending?

Yeah after bitching about waiting so long and them telling me it was going to be 45 days to get my wheels they asked if I would accept 19's instead. I'm not even sure what they are sending bc the invoice says the tires are still 18's
