f UUUUUUUUU!!!!!! (tacobell)

[YelloEye]

So I've been out of it the last couple days being sick and all. Well today I ate the curb at Taco Bell

But anyways I found this place online that sells em for dirt cheap:
http://www.hubcaphaven.com/mm5/merc...e_Code=HC&Product_Code=5023&Category_Code=577

Am I wrong in thinking there's something fishy here? If not I will totally buy a couple this weekend, both as replacement wheels so I have a pair of alloys to put some drag slicks on.

Thoughts?

Oh and the missing rubber, I cut that off since it was just hanging there after it sheared off on the curb. Pretty sure if I had a good set of rubbers (read Nitto NeoGens) I wouldn't have this problem right now....

i want to cry

 

[YelloEye]

I did....it sucked....still pissed about it.

 

[bryson87]

it gives you the poop's but the rim is bad

 

[SportLt]

im sorry bro.


makes me scared about ordering my rims.

 

[Cobalt Tom]

you did the same thing last year in march when here with your last cobalt at a local taco bell...sounds like no more bell for you

[SportLt]

haha

 

[DaveBlank]

ouch

 

[dman090]

id cry

 

[YelloEye]

Oh yeah totally forgot about that....Definitely considering never going to taco bell again now lol...Neither would have happened if I had been paying attention at the time.

Any thoughts on the link I posted?

 

[They call me godly]

IMO I would NOT buy from that site unless I had read MANY good reviews on it. Our wheels are almost 500$ a piece from the dealership.

 

[YelloEye]

Yeah I saw that, but for 500 a piece I may as well buy a set of aftermarket rims that are lighter. I just like how the stock ones look....

I had ordered the wrong hubcap and called & left a message for company to call back so I could exchange the wrong hubcap for the correct one and have never recieved a reply back. When I call all I ever get is voicemail.

that sucks man

brb, i shall go take pics of my rims, and you think yours are bad.......wait, my rims are so dirty u probably can't even see the curb rash........hmmm nvm, you'll have to wait for those pics

 

[They call me godly]

Those reviews are harsh so of course your stepping away right? and when it comes to that other place just do the same thing, find reviews of them, if they are all bad then walk away and find another place. Just be safe when your ordering from places like that. You'd probably have better luck on ebay?

 

[ßlåçk§mókè]

So since it's 4:35am...


Your pissed at Taco Bell because you failed twice to drive without hitting the curb?

It's not like the ground jumped in front of you.... and turned the curb so you'd rub against it.


LOL Next mod should be..


Pay attention, Maybe Tom can install a camera system for you so you can see where your wheels are..
