Sorry, dont think the lug is right...asked earlier and was told it was 5x100...our 5 lugs take 5x114.3 correct?
Plus i think the offset would be off a lil...

See, me, I get suspicious any time someone with a few posts (or one) feels that among the first things they need to share here is a sale from a parts house. &nbsp;Now, maybe I'm just a pessimist and overly suspicious...

Is there something on the sign up screens that we agreed to that prohibits someone coming in and doing things like this? That sucks, pretty soon it's going to be nothing but ads in here.

The something that prohibits this is called good business practices. &nbsp;I've got no problems if someone comes in and says - I own "X corp." and I am selling "Y part" - check me out. &nbsp;But when people put in fake SN's just to advertise, it gets to me.

I know another popular shop that did this a while back (and thankfully hasn't done it since - and also thankfully has returned to the board). &nbsp;He also got caught. &nbsp;It looks bad. &nbsp;Personally, I wouldn't order from the shop after that, but I won't share my grudge w/ others.

Keep these shops in mind when you are looking for stuff and decide if you want to do business with a shop that misleads its customers from the start. &nbsp;THAT is the best thing to prevent shops from doing this.

Honestly I'm NOT AN EBAY ADVERTISEMENT! lol... really though, some of the people that sell rims on ebay have their own person sites with some dirt-ass cheap deals.. I'm not sure if they're good deals but they are cheap as hell.

Good link. &nbsp;However, no typhoons == no dice. <img src="http://www.zilvia.net/f/iB_html/non-cgi/emoticons/smile.gif" border="0" valign="absmiddle" alt=':)'>
