5th Rim Arrived!!!

Well the fifth rim arrived and it does match the other three. It looks like their vendor is painting these Hypercoated rims a little bit different then they used to. I don't like the darker as much as what I expected, but a few of my friends like the darker color better...so what do I know Hopefully my tire shop gets the rear Nitto's in today so I can get these things on the car. I can assure you pics are soon to follow Thank you all for listening to my whining.

I've never been much of a fan of hypercoated wheels. To me they look like chrome that has brake dust on it. That's what my Y2K R wheels will look like after a week or so without washing them. That does suck they sent you the wrong ones though

I'm happy to hear they at least match now. What a PITA.

i'd fit a tyre to the odd rim and put it in the trunk as a spare.its got to look better and be safer to drive on than he pressed steel space saver mine came with,although i know thats not really the point.

Running a full size spare eats what little trunk room we have left. I would send that one wheel back and tell them you want a refund.
