His prices seem fair even with shipping. He has Gunmetal 17x9.5 and 17x11 ZR1's with tires for $1000 shipped. Just curious if anyone know the guy or has dealt with him.

Thanks, Tim

Yup, bought my polished Z06 wheels from them. Excellent wheels, fast shipping, good price. Overall, I recommend them.

Thanks, Tim

I would not deal with him, read his feedback... the negatives show when a person had a problem after receiving the rims and left him neg feedback he gave them neg feedback saying "NON PAYING BIDDER" thats bull because the buyer already has the rims so you know he has paid already. I buy from ebay all the time and I am staying as far away from this guy as possible!!!! Check out the seller "Cleaning out the garage" and there are a couple of others. I would seriously consider this because I don't like people who post retalitory feedback... once the buyer has paid their job is done and feedback should be posted asap but most wait to see what they say about them first and that is wrong. I bought a watch from a guy who posted the watch was excelent at 95% and when I got it it was 70% at best and it didn't work, the guy wouldn't rturn my email so I posted neutral feedback and he retaliated with the same saying I had requested a CRAZY discount.... how is that when he wouldn't even return my e-mail, Damn it how did I get so far off track here... SORRY on a rant

anyhow just read deep into his feedback and see what people say about him then check the buyers feedback and see what he said about them... from what I read I wouldn't do business with him...JMO

I bought my chrome A molds from him and it was a fast smooth transaction and the wheels are beautiful. There was a thread on this seller a few months ago and everybody praised him then too.

I'd e-mail this post to him to see what he has to say about it. Maybe it's a BS post ... or maybe not.

I say Just check out his feedback on Ebay and make you own decission based on that ... I never delt with him but I didn't like what I read. I doubt that the Ebay feedback was BS but you never know.

Got my polished aluminums from him, sent wrong centercap stickers and shipped out correct ones quickly. I would recommend.

Opinions vary... just read up on this guy and use that to make your decision. I just read his Ebay profile and didn't like what I saw and I would hate to see you get screwed, he is not the only one selling these replica wheels. JMO

Just remember, for every 1 person that posted neg feedback, there's 5 more that were afraid to because they didn't want retaliatory feedback on their good record. I've had a few rotten deals and I've only left 1 neutral feedback. On all 4 occasions, there was a so-called family emergency, or death in the family. Who's gonna argue that one?
