The dude from eBay sent me two of the 4 wheels.
Guess which ones he sent?
THE FRONTS.
Will this ever end well?
All I want is those damn rear wheels.
BTW... would anyone on here ship rims via USPS?
I wouldn't. I barely trust them to send my bills in the mail...
let alone hella rare 90's BMW rims.
Nendel, I never heard back from the guy on VRT... I shot him off an e-mail before I went out of town, but he never replied.

did you pay for all four or just two and he just felt like keeping the rears...ether way that sucks boners.
I would make a post in the VRT thread. For some reason its the only place anyone checks for messages. He probably forgot or something cause nobody was talking in the thread anymore. He seemed to be ready to do the bid when you were. Is it still in auction?

I paid for all four. He said I should get them this week. My question is... A: Why would you ship rims US Mail, and B: Why would you ship 2 wheels, then come back later and ship the other 2? Wouldn't you just ship them at the same time?
The dude doesn't answer my e-mails, and isn't sending me the tracking.
I swear eBay has gone down the shittarrrr.
I'll go post on VRT now and see whassups.

Dude Egay has been shit for years. I've been screwed over so many times by sellers and Paypal that I swear I will never use them ever again.

I got the remaining two wheels today.
Drumroll please...
NOT STAGGERED.
They are 8.5 ET13 just like the other two. I swear to God those rims looked like the 9.5's in the auction. Matt and I both agreed it was them. It wasn't. The auction didn't say 9.5 ET20... I just figured the dude took the numbers off the 8.5's. I was wrong.
Now I have 6 FRONTS and 3 rears. WTFF.
EPIC FAIL.

I'll still use them. They are .5 wider than my stock rims (the black ones). I've never put the fronts on the rear to see how they fit, but at least they will match... not that I really care - I just want to run more stretch. I feel such a huge difference with'm stretched.
I'm still trying to get that solo rim from YAJ... I'm having to transfer funds out of my PayPal 1st... that takes a minute.
The saga continues.
