And this is why i canceled mine a while ago and got something that i don't have to wait for 6 months after they come out to have. Its just stupid how they set a date for them to come out, a week before that date xxr comes out and say oh we have to push it back a month, and so the story goes on. how long has it been since the first date was planed?

They can say they didn't know the demand was there and they had no idea people would pre order so fast... But why come out with something like that and take pre orders knowing people would want them and then xxr not have the equipment or resources to keep up with pre orders?

Not really? I mean yes it might have got a little out of hand for pre orders and what not but that's xxrs fault for letting it get out of hand. They made no arrangements to have wheels ready for the people that ordered them before hand ( From what i have read they didn't even start making any wheels till the first release date) So that right there tells me that they had no planing involved and clearly didn't think about the customer.

Say what you want, i think they are really good looking wheels myself, But that's really poor planing on xxr's part and probably lost a lot of customers by not planing ahead. While was lucky and canceled my order i know a lot of people where locked in to the pre order and couldn't cancel or get there money back. in tern they have to wait as long as xxr wants ( That kind of makes me think xxr is only concerned about the $$ and cares nothing about the customer?) But whats new there...a big company that cares about the customer, good luck with that.

Some guys have already started to get their 527's... I've seen the wheels on two S13's and an NSX(wtf?) so far. Just hold on guys...

As far as those 4 lug 18x9 Varrstoen's are concerned... I thought that was old news by now. Too bad thats the widest they make for 4 lug...

the original point of the post was to point out that next level motoring customers are already recieving wheels and enjuku hasnt heard a thing. So basically Next level motoring is getting shipments before enjukus supplier. So i think this means we have to wait for all of NLMs orders to be filled before we get ours?

Varrstoen doesn't even make 4 lugs anymore, I was in Villa Park for work the other day and stopped at iLL and Tommy had a set in his office and I asked about ordering them and that's what he told me. If you can find some I'd greatly appreciate it because I really want 17x9's in flourescent orange...

^^^Not surprising. There was no real market for the sizes they made for 4 lug...
