I sent the claims form to my guy to proof it. I'll probably send it in the morning.

He sent pics to me of the wheels when they were taken home from the shop after being mounted & they were perfect.

Thanks for the input, guys. I've never had an issue with Fedex, so here's to hoping it'll go smoothly.

& thanks for the compliment Tony.
Do the boxes that they were shipped in have damage in conjunction with the location of the damage on the wheels?

Its actually hitting the spot where my front bumper mounts to the fender.

I look at the passenger side to compare and I notice that my TOE is out a lot more on the driverside. Got an appointment with chris friday.
Did you get the plenum installed?

Not true, a lot of my vendors shipped them mounted already. He just has bad luck, and got the one delivery that probably got thrown around.

I think I need to swear off the RPF1s.

I'm done whining about the situation. I'll keep you guys posted as to how the claim proceeds.

Hmmm...just seems that every vendor i have bought wheels from or was going to buy wheels from doesn't like to mount tires the ship them do to the fact that they are more prone to damage.
