Good morning.

I am buying wheels from RVRN and I’m working with a woman by the name of Claudia. It seems a bit sketchy and I’m a little nervous of sending them money.

Does anyone have ny comments?

Thank you

If its feeling sketchy, just move on. They are plenty of wheel vendors here on the siite to go with. I did a google search on them and they are a legit dealer. However there are allot of mixed reviews and complaints. Not a good start if I was looking at this company. Some people like the product they got others do not. Also there seems to be some spoof sites that are scamming them as well. Good luck.

Yup, on a purchase of this size, if it makes you worried, don't do it.
At the very least, only pay with some form of protected payment.

I tried to google this website. My Norton Virus Scam Protection blocked it. Norton flagged it as suspicious. A ton of legit wheel sellers why choose this one? You're iffy about from the jump. Too good to be true? It is every time. But that's just me.

Yeah I agree. What is the alure? I wouldn't buy from them from the brief research that I saw. The vendors here on the forum have great reputation and most are price compatible. All you have to do is look.
Good luck.

Well I dont know who is best or per say top 3. The vendors here on the forum almost all of them have rave ratings. There are different price ranges as well. For me when I shopped the vendors here on the forum. I wanted light weight fully forged wheels with the offset and design of my choice. I landed with vtforged and I'm super happy with my wheels. I shopped over 5 vendors wheels before landing on what I liked. Take your time and ask lots of questions and find pictures etc from the vendors of your choice as well as customers opinions etc. before taking the plunge. Some vendors are fully custom, and some just have select wheels to choice from. So it really depends on what you want.

If you get a feeling things are not right, hope you’ll just move on. Too many other wheel vendors to choose from.
