I had a chance to connect with Joe early this AM, and he was great! very understanding, and he is going to solve my problems for me... I wish the guys who sold me the first set worked this easy!

Joe is sending out a replacement once he gets the claim filed with DHL...

Two of the boxes were also missing the lug nuts, so I trust those will be sent with the replacement rim;

The dealer who sold me the forge line wheels swapped out the tires free of charge today, and they have changed the company policy to better disclose the this water cupping issue... I had a long chat with them, and in the last 10 or so years they have been doing this I'm the only guy who had a big issue with this, most others have had the issue arise, but the explanation of why has appeased others - they understood my concerns, and were doing what they could (aside from a refund full or partial)

At the end of the day, I've lost a ton of money on this - unless ebay can help me sell them!

I have learned a great deal of rims - more than I ever wanted to know...

Also; truthfully, the factory sport wheels do look great on the car! I really wish I had done that to start with...

Just as an FYI, Forge line is able to take the 19" reverse shell wheels back, and make them a 20" standard (Stepped shell) - but even with the generous discounts, and eating of costs by the group of people involved with this, it was going to cost me $2100 USD - so I have opted not to do that I will likely have the one wheel replaced, and I will try and sell on ebay. I tried the classified here, and no interest.

The silver lining for converting them to a 20" allowed me to have the repainting done any color I wanted... However not sure that was worth $2100 to me...
