Here's a Sellers Rating for our wonderful classifieds....

I'm going to put you both in time out and take away your brownie at lunch!

That's awfully racist!

They would have been a good deal if they were indeed ready to bolt on as represented, but I'll say it was just an okay deal now....these wheels normally run $3400 for the set shipped, but they've run several specials at $2999 with about a 4-6 week lead time. The tires are $1000-$1200 for the set, depending on where you buy them.

So brand new I would have been in them on the low side at around $4000, and on the high side around $4600. Already being mounted and balanced with tpms made the used deal "appear" more attractive, but turns out that is all a moot point now.

FWIW - I'm not faulting my buddy at all! You actually have to jostle one around quite a bit to hear something inside of it, and he wasn't really thinking that would be a problem (who really would though?)...he was more-so concerned with ensuring there was no curb rash, odd wear or anything like that...and they did pass the test on that stuff....aside from a couple dull center caps.

Since the point is again being lost, let me just again restate...point of the thread wasn't ever to debate what was or wasn't a good or bad deal...it was simply to reveal what I felt to be shady and dishonest from a seller who frequents this board.

Not really, he's used that retort three times in the last few day's. Once in his gtg thread, then at Tali and now at me.

If he uses it one more time, he might want to copyright it though...

once was in the BBQ GTG thread, but it was last year. Only twice in the last few days.

LMAO! Now that was pretty fucking funny!

went back and looked, yep, didnt use your's or Jason's name in my post. It's simply information. You chose to get butthurt and post up.

No need to get all pissy DJ, just doesn't seem like an idea that Reemo would like to do. My shit works and I don't drift race bro, so need for me to do any of your African American engineering...

then dont fuckin do it H. Some people run their car at the track, etc and would rather not have to hassle with pressure monitors all the time. If you arent one of them, dont worry about it.

I'm I no way picking sides but, used is used. You never know what your getting and if your buddy picked them up, he should have heard some bouncing around in one or more of the wheels. When I buy something used, it better be a smoking deal or I will just buy new. I have been bought things that were mis-interpeted too, so I feel ya. It looks as though you did get a good deal, but shit like this happens all the time.

x2! Used is used! Even after $200 fixed. Did you save money?

Am I going to have to separate you two?

I care where it is and so does Reemo. I'm sure he does because the wheels and tires were around 3.5k. My TPMS system has already saved me some money more then once. I got in my car and it was on when I started it up, I checked my W&T's and sure enough I had a real low tire. I changed my tire right then and there, but if not I would have been on a hwy and would have been changing a flat in a dangerous situation or fucked up the tire and rim.



lol! Yeah like a need the Plano police to pull me over and see some pipe bomb looking shit or worse have them bouncing around and have one blow off while I'm driving.
