Sh@tty night. Double fail with new wheels
Well the awesome boys at UPS hooked me up . Bogarts showed up tonight with a nice f'in flat spot and a nice kiss mark on the box. Didn't notice till I was "about" to get tires installed. Awesome
Swing and a miss #2 was I got the other rim/slick mounted. I been crunching number all week and pretty much knew my answer. It wasn't going to fit. I went off having a 13.1 mid section giving me .75 clearance. Well, didn't seem to catch the fact that was a 10 rim and I have 11's. So add another .5" to that making 13.6, but give or take a hair, and bingo, pretty much touches the leafs. Not a fan on running a spacer, so I figure I'll just mount my 29x11.5 on there. New math on those is back to .75 clearance again. Shitty. I'll be on the phone tomorrow with Bogart about the wheels. My gut says i'll be sending them right back to them after already waiting 5+week. Really wanted this shit for the STS this weekend in GA. Not looking good for the home team. :roll: http://i152.photobucket.com/albums/s...1/de4ba6be.jpg http://i152.photobucket.com/albums/s...1/92b60846.jpg |
Ouch...been there done that with the ups/fedex guys and rims. I had to send 2 sets of rims back when i got the boxes they looked like a dog had eaten them.

i shipped 4 $4000 laser jets to new Jersey last year: the lady says "who drove over the BOX?" UPS had drove a forklift or something over one of the printers. out of the 4, he was able to get ONE together and working. and UPS would NOT pay for them, even with tire tracks on the boxes, because I packed them (the UPS store charges ~$80 to pack stuff that big) |
that sucks, its obvious they were dropped... check out my roll cage that showed up.

UPS lost my shirt order then it finally came in weeks later ripped open and grease all over the box and brand new shirts!! I re-fuse to use them when I have a choice.

Well better than mine, did not realize the wheel was not perfectly round until it was on the truck..
