I wouldn't sell them as-is, I don't want someone else unhappy with them.

Tires I'd end up having to sell since I want those Vossens and they are 20"

i doubt they would pay for you to powdercoat.... really doubting it....

i really think you should take's Lou's offer and refund those FuglyStars at once.......... better not wait or they will not accept it back at all.....

factor in 2300 for the vossens at MSRP..... also note that nothing here is sold at MSRP... so take some off

ya, 3 glossy, 1 satin...not a single finish covers the entire wheel...pinstripe already chipping off on one of the wheels...thats the basic summary.

nogoodname · 10-07-2009, 02:21 PM

did they NOT put a coat of clear after the pin stripe.... that could be why it's chipping off already

i bet they didn't b/c it was a rush job

damn 20" on the Z though. that's gonna be huuuuge. i do wish vossen would consider the 19"

Caravanshaka · 10-07-2009, 02:29 PM

i could probably setup up a powdercoating deal in my garden shed and do a better job... plus better pin striping.....lol

20's are perfect. we got a big but and we cannot lie. venaci's look soooooo dope. but im loving those teaser vossen. they're like 360forged, but with quality and customer service

Thats prolly why they had to wait so long... They made 3 then they pissed off the pinstriper, so he said screw you guys, and they were stallin while they tried to find a new pinstriper. To no avail they decided to try fixing the one wheel, and one of them attempted to do it himself, but having no clue how, you see the end result...
