I would send back the 3 other rims and get Saleen replica rims. They aren't quite as good quality but very good nonetheless (and a hell of a lot cheaper). You can also get the rears in 18X10, which looks very nice.

Check them out here: http://www.wheelreplicas.com/sstyle.htm

You really should cancel that order, I paid them in full for my S7 and then they told me they lost the check, and when I called they said the car was in the mail. I was like WTF? Don't mail my car, and they were like, yo we did. Stupid Saleen, trying to crate up and mail my $500000 sports car

Actually, the replicas are typically better quality than you get from Saleen. The chrome on the true Saleen rims is very prone to blemishes.

3 rims

Ya well I would love to send them back the three rims that I bought from them but I have had them for a year now... I think that it's a little too late to return them. What happened was I hit a curb and cracked one. I am still very much thinking about ordering those black replicas for my car. I bet they would look great with my black and white combo i have going. Anyone have a pic of a white stang with the black replicas.

John

p.s. 650 huhh.... was that out the door? (tax + shipping) Don't forget I still have to buy a tire.

Black hyper?

I was looking at the eagle wheels/ wheel replicas webpage and I noticed that they come in black and hyper black.... What's the difference??? What about the white ones??? Anything wrong with white? (get dirty too fast, chip easily)

Ahh
You aint got nothing on me, My saleen wheel cracked last summer in the beginning of june. Three months latter i got my wheel. It got to the point thay they knew it was me when I would call and they would put me on hold and never pick back up. I WOULD be on hold for 1/2 hour before i would hang up. I would then have to pretend to call and order something just to talk to someone. Also when I finally got my wheel in I was double billed and it sent my credit card over balance and I got charged 50 dollars more.
anyone ever have a positive experience??

Saleen Dealer?

Does anyone know if a Saleen dealer might possibly have a chrome wheel in stock or would they just call up Saleen and put in an order for it?

John

P.S. I'm never buying Saleen again too.

So does anyone know the difference between the normal black and the black hyper generic Saleen wheels?
Thanks

John

that sucks that you guys have had some problems with saleen. we haven't had any problems at all with them. although, we don't call them up, we just drive down to the shop and talk to them in person. but each time they have helped us out without a problem. i gotta take our saleen back down soon to get new stickers put on the bumper. they peeled up on the corners so i took em off.

Hi all,I have a 2000 saleen,i cracked to rims one ihad to buy, a new one it took 3weeks,AND then the other bent and cracked ,so i had the bent takin out and the crack welded and its been fine ever since..about the s7 beautiful car just sat in one at the javits center in newyork if i had the money thats the first car i would buy its beautiful.
You can"t compare a $40,000 dollar car a $400,000 car that car is insane.,,,anyway (question)how much horsepower and torque does 2000 stock saleen come with and what do you think would be the best supercharger to slap on for the most gain.thanx jay

I'm with JHRide00 :OT: :damnit:
So you mean to tell me that just because the S7 cost 400K someone should be willing to accept the crap that they give the lowly 40K car owner. And we are talking about the crappy quality of a rim that they want you to spend your hard earned money on. Ummmmm

ps: From what I can tell the best supercharger you cuold put on your car would be the one that's blowing the smoke up you brain thinking that saleen's are cool when the sell crap.

Yea Saleen sux! I ordered my kit through Speedworx but Saleen shipped out my order. I was missing ***** and some things were on backorder. I had to wait for a month in order to get a hardware I needed.

My S-281 wing showed up 3weeks after they said it would, and it did show up, it showed up at wrong adrress!! Thanks god for small town, and I kew the guy.

And I still had to wait 2month for my 3rd brake lights. And it was again send to wrong adress

As far as Saleen goes, we are no better then slug then stepped on on the way to work this morning. Only stupider, because we are stupid enough to buy their stuff They problly don't even want to talk to us really. Which is evident with the fact I have yet to speak with real person on the phone. Its always machine. And they have yet to return my call on ANYTHING I called them on.



we are by Saleen

i know that somebody have posted this before.. but why is saleen hasn't done anything to fix their customer service problem? Do they have enough people? Do they just don't care? What's the issue here?

Customer called and tell them about their problem, you listen, you respond, then you fix the problem.... what's so hard about that?
