5 orders - $650 shipped for a set of 4
10 orders - $625 shipped for a set of 4

Let me know what kind of interest there is and I will get the GB going.

1. Excelerate - Black w/ red lip

the problem isnt that is at the promised 8 week mark...but that he still hasnt gotten a ship date from rota yet...so it is safe to assume it will take 1 week to get from rota to excellerate...then 1 week to get to us...+ the wait while they are made...so maybe 3 more weeks....

i could have gotten these from someone on clubrsx w/ tires for $800 in 1 week....but since the deposit is supposedly non-refundable.....

NIGHTHAWKSI · 08-09-2007, 06:05 PM

bump...because im an impatient bastard

futhermucker · 08-09-2007, 06:42 PM

dude this is taking way too long... like seriously

Well the GB was finalized on 6/18 so that puts us just shy of 7 weeks. Also, ROTA had no stock on the SDX in black w/ red lip. They were all special order.

However, here is the update. ROTA had told me last month that they would see the wheels around 8/15. I have just spoken with them and now they say that ETA was wrong and the new ETA is the first week of September for all the wheels. I don't think this is right and I am not happy with these delays. If you want to keep your order and wait I will make the price $600 shipped rather than $625 shipped to the continental US. Canadian shipments will be $625 instead of $650. If you want to cancel I will refund your $100 deposit. If you wish to cancel please update the list with what you want to do - keep your order or cancel and then PM me with your name, email, Paypal ID, and date you paid. Thanks.

bluesunit · 08-10-2007, 02:03 AM

Is there any chance you can make changes to the order since it's been held up for so long?

I was going to buy the wheels of another member in the group buy, but he has opted to cancel out. Now that you have a firm (I hope) ETA, would it be possible to hop in or replace someone who is bailing out?

So just to clarify...they (Rota) are going to see the rims on the first week of september...meaning we would probly get the wheels around mid to late sept?

NIGHTHAWKSI · 08-10-2007, 10:02 AM

just so you know...the august 6th was 7 weeks....so we are just shy of 8 weeks wait time...which is what we were told

but like ^he said...so that would mean we get them the end of september?:SHOCKED: people have shorter waits with volks....
but anyway...for $600 shipped i cant really argue or find another set of wheels i really like...so i will wait. but if this turns into a october thing....is there another $25 off...?

I have one member who cancelled. His set of black w/ red lip are available for $625 shipped to the continental 48 states.

Right. They said they would have them the first week of September. 1 week to me and 1-5 business days to you guys based on where you are on the map. I am in CT for reference.

Johnbro · 08-10-2007, 01:27 PM

so i will have them by the 8th to the 10th. is that correct

peenoySI · 08-10-2007, 01:32 PM

it seems there are no black with red lip anymore...

bluesunit · 08-10-2007, 10:11 PM

Damn, I'd prefer bronze.

azrael · 08-11-2007, 12:26 AM

Well right now I'm still debating on whether I want to keep my order or cancel. I like the rims and want them, but if I won't be receiving them until mid-late September that means I more than likely won't be putting them on my car until spring. So I need to think about it a little more and decide what I am going to do.
