BS rim install issue.....

OK, I bought some 20s back in Oct of last year. Took them to Goodyear Tuesday to get tires mounted. Got home yesterday ready to put them on the car. I get both fronts on. Move to rear driver, mounted. Passenger rear does not seem to be fitting the same as the others....These MFs sent me one 20 X 9.5 and 3 20 X 8.5s. I was/am PISSED!!!

Install has now been postponed....

However, she looked so damn good on the right side with the drop....

One would think......I didn't notice cause they've been in the box in the basement for 6 months...I only opened one to see them.

Here they are...

Those look like the same rims that khynex has (and I'm sure others also)
