It does stick out... but it also sticks out like the oil dip stick under the hood, which I painted black... maybe the caps could be painted too :confused:

Nope, not without un-mounting the tires which of course costs $$$. I didn't even see these in person until after they were on my car as I had them shipped directly to the dealer that put them on yesterday after putting my springs on. Had I seen them prior to that I would have held off on putting them on until some kind of resolution could have been found. We're dumping all kinds of cash into these cars, myself included, and I think we all can agree we just want it done right and to look good. When something like this happens it's just a huge pain in the *** to fix, costs us (the consumer) extra money that we shouldn't have to spend, and quite honestly - is completely unnecessary and could have been easily avoided.

Details are everything.

Details are everything and you should have asked something like that when ordering, I can't say I really blame him when he goes by what the customer asks for, he could have asked if you wanted a diff color but he also doesn't read minds just my .02

Never asked for a silver valve...

I don't think any of us would do that, ever.

But for future reference, Jason, I think you guys should at least throw it out there. Valve stems are probably the last thing on the consumers mind when ordering wheels and tires and could easily be mentioned when asking what color lugs should be shipped out with the wheels.

I already wasn't happy with this to begin with and now here I am, day two of having these on my car, and a handful of friends have already asked me wtf I had silver tpms sensors thrown in these.

Easy fix just offer the black valve stems and caps. Jason is still a good guy to work with. I would have opted for the black cap but tbh i didnt even notice the valve stems just the caps which I will be painting black

I was involved in every other aspect of my order but not this and as you can probably imagine, I'm not happy. These things are hideous! They stick out like a sore thumb and I can't believe you all would have used these when black ones were available, especially considering the black/carbon/silver Forgestar center cap, the black lugs I'm running, and the color of the wheel. Unbelievable.

We actually just got the black/gunmetal valve stems in earlier this month, and you placed your order well before that I believe.
So I'm sorry if you werent notified about these being available.

It is an upgrade that costs $50, but we can have a free set shipped out to you this week. Please email me at Jason@getyourwheels.com with your shipping info and I'll have it sent out.

Hope this helps!

Keep in mind that silver valve stems is pretty much standard across the board, even OEM wheels that come black from the factory use the silver TPMS valve stems.
The TPMS we sell all come with silver valve stems, this was a part we have to purchase separately as an upgrade.

And this is why GETYOURWHEELS rocks. And you went all crazy on Jason. You need to talk to people first before flying off the handle.

Well, I think the simple solution to this is more pics! Anything that comes through your facility. Be it black TPMS or 32" Dub Skirt wheels on a lifted Camaro. I demand that we see everything! An informed customer is a happy customer after all.:happydance:
