Rick owns several companies the wheels are just one of them. He is like many entrepreneurs we wear many hats. Rick has also stated they had issues with their manufacturers over seas and he is trying to remedy that situation. If you have a problem call rick, email rick or PM rick. If you cant get a hold of him after a week post up and others will try to help.

I understand the wait is long and that is why I went with custom 3 piece wheels cause I could get them in 1 month delivered. I just delivered Metz's 20" wheels in CF in 2 months.

It is not so much the wait it is the fact that he has no idea where these wheels are but all he does is ask for more time,fine you need more time I need more information.
Rick is very hard to get in touch with so this site seems to be the best way for us and him to quickly get in some what intouch.

Trust me I understand. I ordered custom sets of Volks from Bulletproof a few years back and that took like 7 months... Mike had to have hated me calling in for updates so I know what yall are going through. I wish yall the best of luck and i know rick is trying to bring everything here for his manufacturing. That should fix future orders from this same problem. Just remember rick is here and the manufacturer is in japan. I hope rick can get you guys your orders to you soon.

My new car has been on stands for 3 months and I have no wheels I can't afford to let my car sit there and rot for 5-7 months If that's the case I will just pull the plug on this and order wheels next year.

Oh OH call me lol, for real as a dealer though no offense to rick but everyone is right. People are coming on here speaking for him, when you have alot of business's or not thats not an excuse. If you cant handle it, hire someone and if that doesnt work close the company. I had to deal with a chargeback after 2 months of a custom order, I wish you guys would order from me b/c man your all very nice and I actually talk to my customers.

This is one of those situations where I was on Ricks side but I am leaning as you should never have someone else talking good about you, trying to cover for your mistakes. I hope it gets resolved, but in fairness he sounds like a good guy so dont do a chargeback to him. Speak to him and let him refund you the money as I am sure he will.

I couldn't agree with you more Chris I was appalled by some of the responses in that other thread, especially when people mention he has other "business's" to run..



This was posted in the other thread but I couldn't quote it since it was closed..

Since you are in the "know" please explain to everyone what is going on.. Why on earth would an order that is typically quoted 8-12 weeks take over a YEAR to arrive.. I was in the wheel industry for 5+ years and have a lot of experience dealing with distributors, oversea manufactures, etc.. and have never seen an order take this long unless something went very wrong.. I had posted this on the my350z thread (where other members are also waiting for orders) and really hope for everyone it isn't the latter issue..

"Sucks to see you have to wait this long It could be due to various reasons, no way to really know what's going on sitting from the outside.. There has to be something really wrong going on for an order to actually take this long...

-Delay with manufacture
-Delay with importer
-Delay with customs
-Vendor doesn't have money to pay for incoming orders


Who knows "
