I know this question is not for me. But I expect to get some form of refund on Monday unless they are able to fix the problem right there and then. Monday is d-Day. Even if these guys ask me to pay restock I'll do it just to dump it. Thank goodness I still have my 246's with me so I will have to put them babies back on. I need to find a good OEM 19's for my car in a few weeks.
Appreciate if you could forward any links my way of people selling their M5/M6 wheels. Thanks.

WOW....
Moral of this story.
BUY OEM, dont cut corners. Its not worth it. By the time you either finally have this cured, returned to factory rims, or bought OEM 167's you've spent the difference in time / effort.

well...a lot of members buy reps from vendors we have here on this fourm without issues, just gotta make sure you are dealing with a knowledgeable vendor (Trinity, EuroRev, Sonic MS, ModBargains, etc....)
thanks for the feedback.

I have a feeling I'm also in for a lot of hurt tomorrow when I go back to the vendor. But I will have to try.
