I always ask people to clarify, is the xxx miles street or track miles.
I did, he said he never used them on the track and then subsequently, he basically admitted that he did use them on the track.

He found out that the Z1 rotors don't work on the track. Now he's trying to recoup some of his mistake.

Don’t forget he also sold a pair of Paragon 2 pc that’s warped beyond correction.

For someone that paid like $10k for a set of BBS center lock wheels, a $1.5m+ address, I just don’t understand the need to lie just to recoup a few hundred bucks.

Yeah, he said the Paragon's were perfectly fine too. Called me a 'show and shine desk jockey'. I offered to race him at Willow Springs anytime.

I told him if pays me the $350 for the rebuild kit, I won't make his life miserable.
