Default Experience with Tomz Wheels

I am looking at purchasing a set of Z06 chrome Motorsport wheels from Tomz Wheels. Does anyone have experience with this vendor?

when I was buying my current set of wheels, I tried to call them several times and never got an answer. I also sent an e-mail and never recieved a response. Guess they didn't really want my business.

I've bought wheels from him, the chrome z06 wheels are heavy peices, the shipping got messed up and took an extra week to get my wheels when I paid for 2nd day air... but I guess it wasnt his fault.... not a great experience really, he must just be really really busy..... I recently bought wheels from house of wheels, check the prices there... got the stuff on time and bob knew what he was talkin about...

Post a followup. I've been looking around for the same wheels, haven't decided yet where to buy.
Good luck!

Brian <C5 Kidd> ordered from Bob first, I ordered from bob had an OK experience. Brian recieved his wheels from Bob in which all four were defective. Bob told him they're supposed to look liek that and Brian declined and said he was shipping them back. Bob tried to stick Brian for the shipping but i think they worked that out. TomZ wheels shipped next day, in better packaging, for less money.

Next set of wheels i need if Tom has them i'll probably buy from him.

I don't know how TomZ's return policy is, but if you have problems with your wheels from bob he just refers you to the manufacturer.

Three of my friends ordered from TomZ and had ZERO issues whatsoever. That's where I'll be going.

I bought my chrome Z06 wheels from Tom over a year ago. I received them promptly at the best price available.
