Hey dragin, did you go to Discount Tire and turn in 2 of your wheels because you think they got scratched? I pretty sure it was you because they were the g-games wheels. Looks like there will be two of us with the same rims and same color car, instead I am getting the wheels for way cheap , my buddies work up there and I saw the wheels today, they are flawless! anyways, thanks for the rims,sord of!

sure, if you look theres accually 1/16th of an inch machined out of the wheel. i refused em since mackin said they were "unsafe". why not get the wheels in a diff color? they offer em in silver(same color as civic) and a goldish color.
they werent scratched they were pitted, and i dont think i know for a fact they were. **** discount, all they do is f up, they did the same thing to my buddys celica the other day.
Ps. Mackin is the manufactur of rays, volk etc.
Next on my list, finish body mods. and rotora's

ive had a tire replaced at the store on 7th. Ave / Bell Road and the guy that did mine knew that i was worried about him screwing-up the rim during the dismount
he did the dismount and remount without a single nick/scratch/scuff

they should automatically have some one cpable do it. the bell store, Guy name justin bidle, and a dave with short dark hair, there the only 2 i'll let touch my wheels at a store. i usually go to the scottsdale reginal office to get my ship changed mounted rebalanced etc.

I bought mine at Tatum and Bell, and the people there do a good job for the most part. One of my rims was starting to flake off the chrome, so I got another rim. I was worried they would knick em up, cause they had some new kid. All were fine except the new one they put on. Now I am going back and getting a new rim. I didnt pay 1300 for them to bust my ****. It may only be a cm long scratch, but they will fix it again

well Dragin you lucked out. I won't be getting the wheels so you don't have to worry about another 7thgen with the same wheels in AZ, even though they are sick rims! They refinished the lip and put them back into their inventory so....I have to find another set!

Just too clear some stuff up, there is a way that they can refinish the lips and the lip only. Also if you want to have good work done one your rims and dont want to have to worry about them messing anything up if you go to the Discount on shea by 70th street and talk to Mark, Shane, Jon or lil' Jon they will do it and make sure that nothing happens to your rims. I used to work at that store for 2 years. Just tell them that Brandon sent you, they might even hook u up
THings that im planning on......sparco's, tein coilovers, hid's, redo system, put in my gauges, tint front window cause it is to damn hot, fix the nitrous....but all in due time cuase i like to have other toys as well.....
