Änyone in Calgary know CalgarianNSX?
David (CalgarianNSX) sold a set of OZ wheels with tires to me. The day after recieving the wheels they were taken to a local Firestone Store to have them checked prior to installation, they found the following:
- Two Tires have bulges (Must be replaced)
- Two rear Rims are bent, one beyond repairs (Need to be replaced)
These wheels and tires were list as being in excellent conditions, however it far from it.
I will post pictures and the report from Firestone
Attached is the PM conversation thus far...
Re: Wheels & Tires
Sure buddy,
Do what you want. I speak the truth. Cast Iron is very strong and used in many applications, but I've seen iron drop and break. Maybe your pal should have just forked out another couple hundred dollars to buy something brand new!! If he can afford an NSX, I'm sure he has funds to dress it up nicely...Brand New. You guys live in the Toronto area where the market for auto supplies and accessories is bigger than the rest of Canada. I don't know why you'd want to order a set of rims from across the country! Hell, you could of even driven over to Buffalo to pick something up there too.

You charged for shipping therefore it is your responsibility to ensure that the wheels are shipped ans received un damaged. However, I don't believe these were damaged during shipping.
How the bulges get on the tires?
I will be taking pictures of the wheels and tires, and since you have not provided an email address, that I is can communicate to you through to try and resolved this, I will paste it all over Prime. I have already open a case with Prime market place.
I should have know that with one post, that there were something wrong, but I trusted you as a Canadian.

One thing I did find, unfortunately, was one of the centre caps, which must have fallen off and I did not notice. Since it wasn't mentioned in your message, it apparently was something missed by yourself, the buyer, and Firestone as well. I will compensate for the missing cap, by sending it out as soon as I return home from work, but cannot accept responsibility for the damage. I wanted to clean them up for you, as they were a little dirty, but was pressed for time and was already a few days behind on the promised shipping date. It is possible that they were not handled with care during transit and were damaged by Canada post. Being aluminum, it would't take much for one of those wheels to be damaged by falling or by having something heavy placed on them, especially if the handler did not have the help or strength to properly load or unload them.
I too have received mailed damaged goods in the past, due to shipping and handling mis-care. I'm sorry you received them that way, but as mentioned, I cannot accept responsibility. Check the wrapping for any signs of wear or tear. Check with Canada Post as well.
You will receive the missing cap in a couple weeks, as I am currently away for work.
