Wheel Help!!

I purchased Rota Subzero rims from Revolutions Motorsports in Wisconsin.
They do not fit my car. I drove them to my Goodyear tire shop to see if they could figure out the problem. They said that I needed spacers. I bought spacers. They still did not fit.

Revolutions Motorsports said they were used and would not buy them back, but the reason they were used was to bring them to the tire shop to fix their error.

Do they have to buy them back??

Bad news. No.

If you have mounted tires on them already, you are as good as screwed. Once a tire is mounted, they are considered used.

Sorry dude. I'd sell them on ebay. You are having the same aftermarket wheel luck that I have been having.

They mounted the tires. I bought them as a package.

did you ask them beforehand if they should fit your car? if you did and they said yes, complain to a manager or something. keep b*tching them out until you get your way.

They said they would fit.

Then of course they have to take them back. They f-d up. I had no clue that they mounted the tires. Threaten to call the attorney general. Are they in the same state as you? Threaten to sue. There is no way that a set of wheels that won't fit on your car can be considered used.

What a bunch of a-holes!

I just got off the phone with Revolutions and they said would credit my card a $1000 bucks. I am fine with that because they are used...a whole 25 miles, whoopi! This is just an expensive lesson.

i didn't want a lawyer, cause that would probably cost me more.
I just kept complaining and thank God (can I say God on this forum...I'm not in the Cali district so I guess it's ok) they caved a bit.

Squeaky wheel gets the grease...or the credit on their credit card...whatever.

PS: I have a brand new set of 15mm H&R spacers.
Can't use them now. I'm getting the Mille Miglia's.
Cost me $120. Anybody interested.
