How is it his fault you didn't examine the rims before you bought them? Just do a little work to that area and they will be fine. You must have gotten a good deal on them in the 1st place or you would not have gone to get them.

Sorry for trusting people when they say something is excellent condition?

People here acting like they’ve never been screwed. There was more a lot going on in my mind, practicing this distance thing people keep talking about and like I mentioned earlier he helped me load them up.

If you sell something to someone without honesty and full disclosure that makes you a douche bag.

Go ahead. Change my mind

I get what you all are saying but a little more honesty would make the world a better place.

It sounds like a dishonest add that falls outside of the practice generally known as puffing.

In other words, it's as-is but that doesn't make what the seller did right.

Caveat emptor.

That "damage" is only cosmetic. Have a look at the $500 a piece Hutchinsons on my Wrangler.

Just an update... because it’s my fault I ordered a new wheel yesterday. And a set of 33x12.5.17 mud tires.

And i will still buy them from you. little rock rash doesn't hurt anything, file the edges a little bit so the fingers of the dudes at American tires won't get messed up when the tire is been balanced and that's pretty much it. I come from the Jeep word lol, so i'm used to certain things and my vision of "damage" is a little different from some :)
When you do the fun trails you can expect a little rash here and there. It won't damage anything important from the wheel

He hasn’t responded in 2 or 3 days so I gave up waiting for him to get off his ass.

New wheel sitting in my garage. I used the crap wheel to test some iron remover and see if it’ll damage my other ones in the cleaning process.

Tires should be here in a few days. Ordered some 33x12.5x17 Atturo MT tires for $200 a piece CDN which is a good deal IMO.

They’re inky for summer so I’m not concerned about winter ratings. I’ll keep my stockers and duratracs for winter [emoji106][emoji106]

C'mon man, you can't expect us to feel bad for you. Any used parts must be fully and thoroughly looked at before buying. It would be nice if everyone would be honest, but unfortunately that ain't gonna happen. Control the things that you can!

If that's a real headlock just replace the ring
