Took some Work Wheels to Americas Tire to have tires dismounted, and before they did the work I was very clear that they MUST NOT scratch them, as they were being shipped to a buyer. Lo and behold they dug deep into the metal with the tire changer. I made sure to check the wheels before taking them home, and called them out on the damage immediately. They offered to repair the wheels at no cost whatsoever, which took about 2 days.

Hopefully the shop will come around and own up to their carelessness. Otherwise the damage really isnt that bad. GL with this.

For Me, this is not one of them.

I really hate seeing threads where shops mess up wheels. Horrible.

In most cases, it's hard to get a shop to fess up once you've left the property unfortunately. Luckily repairing the damage shouldn't be too hard/expensive.

Actually they are Maya Maido GR5, there is a setof 20's on g35driver for $1300, have some rash, another set on http://www.importatlanta.com/forums/...red-20x11-20x9

$1700 with tires. Its very unfortunate if you paid $4K for these. I have 20" Volk GTC's I bought brand new for under $3K.

You can not compair one Brand vs Another.....

Wheel prices have come down some over the years....

Volk is a Cheaper Wheel....
