They are worse than before .. I am so disappointed in this whole experience . I have put nothing but Volks on my cars for the past 8 yrs without one single issue . Forged Specialties nothing but issues.. Chris looked at these before they shipped . They are filthy . They were packaged horribly so there would be NO or minimize shipping damage and the pics speak for themselves... Uploading now ..

There are so many scratches and nicks in the chrome. Also the new finish is one of the front wheels . I havent unboxed the rears yet ...

So in short, we can summarize:

1. Your wheels are not to the quality you requested, which you claim is from the manufacturer 'dragging them against the ground' to which you have no proof.

2. It has taken longer than you were told you'd wait.

3. It's only cost you the price of initial purchase and shipping, not the multiple return shipping costs...

4. You say Chris@WDO is not the culprit, yet the thread is titled 'WheelsDirect Experience' So if your argument is not against Wheels Direct, why name the thread that?

5. Chris has repeatedly claimed to have done everything he can to assist you, and work as a middleman to resolve this issue. And although you continue to comment that it's not against him, the issue still remains that you do say that he personally oversaw the wheels being packaged and that he must have either a. let them go through to you as is, or b. he blatantly lies saying he saw them prior to shipping. Which one sounds better?


It's not that people 'don't get' your situation, it's just hard to see the truth through the fog of details. 99% of us aside from yourself, Chris and FS don't know every detail of what's going on, but it looks like from the outside that this thread was made extremely premature, and that there isn't a clear and defined problem here. Being a premium member, I recommend you close this thread and/or delete it and take this matter to PM's between yourself, Chris and/or FS to get this matter resolved.
