Trade 2013 nismo rims for 19" volk gt-s trade
Just wanna bump this up for everyone to see, traded with this guy for my nismo rims he sent me these rims with cheap *** tires not the ones he stated would be included. Was suppose to send lug nuts with them and $100 cash for my spacers and now he won't respond anymore! Don't anyone do business with this guy!

Man i hate hearing stuff like this, as a forum you feel we should be like family and should have a bigger trust while doing a transaction

On 7/20/14 he was going to trade those same wheels with another local guy here for his nismo wheels, I wonder why that deal never went thru

I think you're pretty lucky he actually sent you the wheels.

I thought that user name is familiar, some digging brought up this guy HUMBLEZ34 aka Jared Bratton aka John Martinez. Can an Admin confirm whether it's the same person or from the IP address?

Diff address and diff name, I shipped out to Howie Vu and package was signed for by a Vu in the same household, I had tracking information for all wheels before I sent mine out and that they were in fedex location, didn't figure if he was trying to scam he wouldn't ship lug nuts and $100 cash? The tires is a bitch move I understand that but to leave someone with out lug nuts to mount wheels is just a **** move lol

I realize **** happens and I've been scammed before just wanna make sure no one else does anything with this guy, since I've seen him online viewing the region and still not responding to me. He even looked at this thread after I sent him a text that I made it, still wouldn't respond. I gave him the option to take it all down if he gave me tracking and sent me the lugs and cash, that I would deal with the tires being shitty and still won't respond.

It's great that you posted this. I know some forums over others push for forum member feedback for this exact reason. Thanks for sharing and keep your brothers away from scum like this.

Well if he doesn't respond, we learned on here that making his info public will get things moving rather quickly

lol damn! Thanks for posting that picture of his car. I recognize it from texts he sent me a while ago. I almost bought those red Nismo wheels off of him late last year. That transaction didn't pan out, at the last minute he tells me he's selling them to his buddy who just bought a 350Z.

He probably doesn't know about this thread >>>>> I'm putting it out there! He even confirmed with me that username is HUMBLE370Z and that he only goes by different aliases because he has people harassing him, not until I dug down and did more investigation about this guy.

Seems he uses another screen name selling his those exact Nismo wheels THREE7DZ.
