Shadow Black Work GS4s
 
4 Attachment(s)
Finally took delivery of my GS4s today (it's been a long three months) and they are amazing, but I have two issues and one question. 1) the rivets are polished silver, and they are supposed to be black to match the center of the wheels and 2) the center caps are also polished silver and again should be black. Mark (from RavSpec) can we get this fixed? As for my question, I'm assuming the drilled holenear the back of the barrel is for TPMS, can you please confirm? Added some pics as a tease(sorry for shitty ipad photos) going to get tires mounted today more to come.

I think the tpms goes in the valve stem.

Awesome wheels :tup:

Wiggins3377 05-12-2012 02:51 PM

Alright, each wheel has two holes (one for regular valve stem and the other for TPMS). According to the directions the TPMS goes in the hole near the back of the barrel, but my installer believes the TPMS sensor will break during mounting. Has anyone had this problem? Are you able to flip the TPMS location and the valve stem location?

RavSpec 05-12-2012 11:51 PM

Hey, I m checking with Japan now on the black caps + rivets. Please take pics of the caps for me.

U need to find another installer. Run as fast possible. They have no idea how to do aftermarket wheel.

The front valve stems are angled. Cuz it need to come out of the face.

TPMS stay at the back. Can't switch.

Carbon_z 05-13-2012 09:52 AM

Sweet wheels. I got mine in yesterday too. I sent an email about the caps. I got black with bronze lip

gy954 05-13-2012 11:00 AM

Extra hole in the wheel...
 
As you know, the front and rear wheels are different sizes on a stock Z. The front hubs have a bolt head sticking out which fits into the hole in the wheel. The rear wheels do not have that hole, and so cannot accidentally be mounted on the front. It has nothing to do with the TPMS.

Also, I totally agree with you on the bolt heads: the wheel would look better if they were black, IMO.

Great looking wheels. Contemplated 20" for a long time.

Carbon_z 05-13-2012 09:07 PM

yea but i dont know about the center caps. theyre 20x11.5 and 20x9.5.

RavSpec 05-13-2012 10:13 PM

Hey guys:

Yeah not sure why Japan include silver caps. Send those back and I'll send the black one over.

anyway you can send them over and once i get them I can send them back? Just want to compare them since I already have the silver :tiphat: wouldnt hurt and I can send them back

RavSpec 05-13-2012 10:21 PM

Yeah need it back first. Need to send back to WORK USA for exchange. They don't send me new one without returning old one.

Carbon_z 05-13-2012 10:30 PM

K pm me address and I'll ship back. Thanks again.

RavSpec 05-13-2012 11:06 PM

On the invoice ;)

neveucd 05-14-2012 12:05 AM

We must have all been on the same shipment, because I just got mine on Friday. Anyways that's weird, mine are Black Shadow Gnosis GS2's and they came with everything black including rivets & center caps which are not in the pic below. http://www.the370z.com/members/neveu...8-img-0943.jpg

Wiggins3377 05-14-2012 05:44 AM

Yeah, apparently if we don't order "shadow black" the bolts and caps will be silver.

Only the shadow black will get all black setup.

Steve, send the caps back to me, I am swapping out ur caps to black.

And for the bolts, I am asking Japan if we can get black to replace you.

It should be fine. They suppose to be black since it's a "shadow black edition"

Mark.

Awesome thanks for all the info Mark, service has been great. I just dropped the caps of at USPS, should be there in a few days. Inlcuded my original invoice in case you need it.

FuszNissan 05-14-2012 01:00 PM

Yeah, mine came with Silver Center caps as well. You would think if all these wheels are coming in black , they would have black caps. Strange. But so far all I can say is Mark is on top of it. Can't complain about the customer service I've had so far with RevSpec. They've done a great job about correcting the issues.

RavSpec 05-14-2012 01:13 PM

yeah small mix up on the caps. Was rushing to ship out the wheels and warehouse didn't see the notes on black.

Here are a few pics with my new wheels on. Again they are shitty iPhone pics, but I'll take some more later today with my DLSR. Car needs to be lowered but that's a this weekend project. Oh, and I have a shitty story about getting these things mounted to add later as well. Attachment 46972

I actually need to raise mine up an inch in the front, and get an alignment so they sit flush and not negative.

Waiz 05-17-2012 09:54 AM

Great wheels everyone, I actually think the silver caps look pretty cool on the black wheel

RavSpec 05-17-2012 09:56 AM

Carbon_z 05-17-2012 11:26 AM

Im trying to get some Lugs ;) so I can mount my wheels. What do you suggest for the MGB Black face with bronze anodized lip w/ polished studs, when picking out the lugs? Bronze lugs, black, or polished??
