Subject:warped brazilian rims
From:Martin Peitz

I just put new tires on my new stock rims, which I bought at "California
Imports".
When balancing the wheels it turned out that 2 of the 5 rims were
warped. One of them is really bad.

2 out of 5 does not seem like an accident.

I will send them back and hope they have a decent return policy.
They already ripped me of a bit by charging me $5 of "boxing charge" per
rim, even though the rims come in a box from the factory.

I sure hope they are not a company like Mark Stephens High Performance
that still ows me $200 for cores and on top of that never reimbursed me
for the shipping I had to shell out to send their own heads back to them
until they finally managed to ship me a head that had a usable spark
plug thread. They suck.
