So... I got my new wheels in and lug nuts today... Was suuuuuper excited.. Come to find out NLMotoring sent me the wrong freaking size wheel.. They sent me a 18x10... Then I got to try my brand new lugs.. Come to find out they are to wide to fit through the holes on my wheels..

I got the Exedium ones.. the tip was way to wide to fit into the XXR hole.. So now I have no clue what lugs to get.. I guess ill just stick with the chrome ones because they fit. I can't those exact ones in gold..

I was reading on NLmotoring's website and it looks like they have to do an RMA which means I have to send back these wheels wait for them to get them then they will send me out the right ones.. I will be calling them tomorrow.

I swear no one has work luck with a vehicle then me.

lol.. I am going to request that they send out the new ones while I send back the old ones.. They say they won't do cross item shipment on returned items, but ima tell them I need them asap considering I paid for overnight shipping and its a safety issue since my tires are jacked lol..

They will probably tell me hell no tho

I would have gotten Volks with as much $$ as you put into those $700 per set wheels...( I guess the tires you got must have been new and 400 a piece)

Our Price: $172.44
Sale Price: $162.44 (this is per wheel)

Man, i feel your pain. My list is never ending..

-Broken every single OEM wheel lock (even when using hand tools, rather than an air compressor)
-Both Motordyne ART pipes cracked due to to much carbon present when manufacturing the pipe (seriously, WTF)
-Killed a brand new set of Toyo T1r because toe couldn't be aligned properly (problem fixed now)
-Somehow broke a header to cat gasket
-Valves chattering due to an oil consumption issue
-Woman comes to a complete stop infront of your on the tollway because she didnt know what a toll tag was (causing me to wreck my bumper right after installing my OEM lip)
-Strafe trunk would NOT SHUT when i was at school. Causing me to be minuets late to class
-waiting 13 months for an exhaust to arrive..


More to come im sure..
