I did the exchange thing. In an earlier post, I commented that two of the four I first received had imperfections, but WCC came through and exchanged with replacements. BTW the car looks a little like DSOM in these pics, but it's Mag Red. The sun was setting yesterday.

They look great ! Y'all keep on posting pics of the chrome wheels. I'm still deciding what to do when I order my '06. But posts like these are convincing me to order with the STD wheels and do the swap.

Look'n good, but personally I'm not a big fan of the "chrome". Really like the new gray stock rims, but they weren't available when I bought my vert. So, I'm still shopping around for rims...

AWSOME!!

Everytime I go to clean the polished wheels, I'm reminded how much easier it is to clean chrome. Plus they look sooooo much better to me than the other wheels. I'm from the era of Crager and Appliance chrome mag wheels! Love em!

Default Numbers on tires ?

Just wondering if everyone has the numbers stamped on their tires ? I thought it was only mine but i see it on Ginnys tires also. Any way to remove this ?

Very easy, they give you the shipping label and you call fedex for pick-up.

They charge your credit card for the cost of the rims and shipping, and put a hold of I think $1600 until you return of the old ones.
