Fyi
Just in case anybody was wondering, the torq thrust II's 17" rim will not fit on our cars. Tirerack said there would not be a problem with our front brakes hitting the rim, but low and behold I ordered them and they did not fit. The rear wheels lool great but the fronts are a no go and now i have been waiting for two weeks for UPS to pick them up but they have not come and every time I call tirerack they say that they will be there today or tommorrow. I am going to go crazy and now i dont know what wheels ot put on my car.

Re: Fyi
Dude, that sucks!!! I'd be freakin' irate to the point of looking for plane tickets to personally taking wheels back to TireRack. I feel your pain. Have they offered to discount any new wheels? If not, why not??
Good luck! |

Re: Fyi

Re: Fyi
