.... And here is why UPS are cock suckers... 2 out of the 5 wheels are damaged.... So i called up Summit Racing and told them i had 2 rims that were unacceptable, so these are getting picked up and they are sending me 2 more. Hopefully the turn around time won't be very long. This one the front has a nice dent into the lip and the other one has a nice dent into the rear of wheel. They are only small imperfections, but when you paying $800 just for wheels, i expect to get what i paid for.

A little pricey, I'd say.
I paid $708.00 with shipping for these 17 x 9.5s. added another $435 for 275VR40-17 EVO-Z tires and chrome lug nuts.
Here's the pic (I love posting pictures)

Well right now i am waiting to get all the situated with Summit racing, i have been given 2 different stories from 2 different ppl. The guy who took my first call said, they would be shipping 2 more out today, i called them back and talked to someone else, they told me a different story when i asked how the whole UPS thing worked. I then called back one more time and talked to the first guy i put the claim in asking if it would be faster to just drop them off at the UPS hub near me with them but he assured me that i was getting 2 more sent out today and UPS would pick them up. But i just got home and i am going to call them and ask for a traking # so we'll see. I've also done another 350 worth of business with them since i placed the order for my wheels. So roughly $1,100 in buisness with them in 1 week. They better treat me good.

It's too bad that summit didn't do a better job at protecting your investment. They should have dubble boxed those rims with a double wall box. If they did it RIGHT in the first place UPS wouldn't have messed up your rims. UPS would have never known that they were throwing around 800.00 rims for freaking fun if they were packaged in plain brown boxes. Nice to know that summit is fixing the issue fast!! The call tag for the dammaged rims should been sent to you from summit. Once you get the call tag from summit all you should have to do is slap the sticker back on the boxes and drop them off at a UPS authorized shipping outlet.

Well i got my 2 new replacements today... One wheel was perfect while the other has a scrape on the back of the wheel edge.. Its s minor gouge so i said the hell with it and i'm not going to fight it 1 more time, so i have 4 perfect wheels and 1 full size spare with a tiny knick on the rear side lip that you wouldn't even be able to see if it was on the car.

Indeed, a full size spair is nice to have, I have had a few myself in the past, however finding a place to put the 18in rim in the trunk with out it alwasys being in the way is a horse of a different color. Not to mention the added weight that comes along with the full size spair. But, if your happy I'm happy for ya man!!

I think he is going to put the full size spare in the house. But yea the full size spare plus the blanket so it don't get messed up would stick out of the hole. the weight difference probably wouldn't be noticeable

The full size spare will be in the trunk. The doughnut will be comming out along with the crappy stock jack. I am going to layer the stock wheel well in the trunk with a soft padded fleece, then i am going to raise the deck in the trunk with enough to clear the top of the spare, hopefully it won't require too much height lift. I then am going to make a hindged door with a plexiglass center to show the spare. Then i am going to do 1 sub on one side of the trunk and mount the amp under the lifted deck and show that off with a plexiglass cover as well. Something along those lines, but we'll see.....
