AR Wheels made by monkeys? - 17/04/04 09:22 AM
I'm not the type to air my greivances on the internet, but now I'm really pissed!
I ordered wheels being advertised in a distributors magazine in Jan. '04. Paid in full, I was told they'd be ready 2-3 weeks, they were still in production I think, I can wait to have the only set on the block... Then I'm told the month of February doesn't look so good either.. Than, good news, they'll be in March 4th! Than the 12th, The 19th. Finally I say, listen, I'm going to a national event (MOAB) with thousands of wheelers who'd love to see these new wheels. Free advertising for you and at a premiere event! They say, and I quote,"we'll cross our fingers".
They got here yesterday, April 16th.
The lug spacing's fine, but the center is only 3" around.
4"! I need 4 Fu*^#&@g inches! Who the F*$k ok'd this shit to be sent a way for an'01 X?! WTF is going on there? What kind of chromosone missing ass-hat runs their production center? 4"! Did anyone bother to check a factory spec before making these things? This is un-app-F*$@#^g-ceptable.
4 months to wait for an advertised product, which isn't shipped when promised (3.5 months later) and they're completely useless when they arrive.
ps- they sure are nice looking and as soon as AR gets their shit together, I'll post pics.
Bastards.
