Sounds frustrating, but it's on the inside, and why not just clean em up? You can sand & polish out the scratches. They also get scraped up when you catch a rock between the caliper and the rim.

Because the front runners are shot = No good! Need new tires. I cant even run them.

And when you ask someone if there is any damage to the wheels and they tell you they are perfect I expect better than what I got. Rather than just accept it I would rather buy brand new wheels. I should have known better!

I can post more pictures tomorrow but all its going to do is **** me off more.

Sux man.. I just went thru this crap myself. I bought some AFR 225s that "only have 1500 miles and never sprayed" for $2k off of LS1.tech. Well as soon as I got them, I found out that 3 of the chambers had holes burned in between the valves and 2 more were cracked.. Pics conveniently did not show this damage. After a bit of haggling I was lucky to get my money back.. After that experience, only new stuff for me if it's high dollar parts.

Hopefully you can get your loot back bro...

Dont ship me wheels 1000's of miles away and I get to find out when there sitting at the shop. Tires are gone from the inside. I guess I will have to post pics to prove it. This is a dam shame and your right! I should have listened to Danny. Ive just bought so many good used parts here I didnt even think twice.

And Ive sold a ton of parts with no problems or BS like this!
