He sounds like a great American. Please accept my condolences.


Hopefully, they show up this week.

If it makes you feel any better, my wheels were delivered three weeks earlier than estimated.


I am sorry to hear this. That really sucks! Hopefully, you find another one that you like very soon.
looks good Mr. Brent

Although it does sit a bit high. I think it is sitting higher after the installation. I will see if it settles within the next few days. If not, I might considering

I told them I am willing to work with them with the understanding that we are dealing with diminished value. Sales team contacting me tomorrow or Tuesday whenever shop gets to assess damage. I am willing to go forward if I can steal this under the right circumstances.

They could also cancel the sale and send it to auction.
