I got to the office today and the two boxes with my rims were waiting, but FedEx did not read the "fragile" and "handle with care" stickers all over the box. Three of the rims have flat spots on the edge, but they are on the back side. Fortunately, the fronts appear to be fine, except for some minor nicks.

I'm taking them to the wheel repair shop tomorrow to get an estimate and get them repaired, so it will be next week before I get them on. The seller was really sorry that they arrived like that and is paying for the repairs and will make a claim with FedEx.

My boss told my not to have stuff like this shipped to the office anymore. I guess they didn't care for the Z wheels and tires that I had shipped there in February or the two boxes with sub enclosures, or the 5 foot long box that contained the front chin spoiler, much less these two 68 pounds each boxes.

Here are a few pics from today. More news later.

BTW, the rims are actually 9 x 20 and 10.5 x 20. I thought the front was 9.5. No problem.

Sorry to hear about the dents, Sean. I hope you can get them fixed to your satisfaction.

I think they're going to look great on your car! I can't wait to see them!!!
