Here's a Sellers Rating for our wonderful classifieds....

[Rreemo]

They would have been a good deal if they were indeed ready to bolt on as represented, but I'll say it was just an okay deal now....these wheels normally run $3400 for the set shipped, but they've run several specials at $2999 with about a 4-6 week lead time. The tires are $1000-$1200 for the set, depending on where you buy them.

So brand new I would have been in them on the low side at around $4000, and on the high side around $4600. Already being mounted and balanced with tpms made the used deal "appear" more attractive, but turns out that is all a moot point now.

FWIW - I'm not faulting my buddy at all! You actually have to jostle one around quite a bit to hear something inside of it, and he wasn't really thinking that would be a problem (who really would though?)...he was more-so concerned with ensuring there was no curb rash, odd wear or anything like that...and they did pass the test on that stuff....aside from a couple dull center caps.

Since the point is again being lost, let me just again restate...point of the thread wasn't ever to debate what was or wasn't a good or bad deal...it was simply to reveal what I felt to be shady and dishonest from a seller who frequents this board.

I'm going to put you both in time out and take away your brownie at lunch!

That's awfully racist!

Glad it's not too bad Rreemo. I still don't really like stretch but that's my own opinion.

Because of his weiner dog?

Same seller shipped a prominent member a C4 that was junk.

Because he wouldn't let him play with it.

Shit, there was supposed to be a comma in there, dog.

huh?

[Shorty]

From the salvage to fixed cars he puts up and his ties with that other dude, I would never do business with him ever. He has shady written all over him.

Agreed.

TPMS sensors have gone way down in the past year or so: http://www.ebay.com/itm/NEW-OEM-FORD...997c38&vxp=mtr

Thanks for posting this, I hadn't even thought about checking Ebay.....I was about to order them from American Muscle, and they are $40 each there. $54 for an entire set is a smoking deal and way cheaper than I've seen them elsewhere. Hell, that's only like $10 more than I paid for just one locally.

Moving on these for sure.

Sorry for the BS of the sale but your car sure does look damn good with them.

Rreemo, Have you contacted steve at tru forged? He will hook you up with a new set of center caps for little sometimes even nothing.
