Default What would AW do? ... I just picked up my new Enkei RPM2 (silver) wheels

<center><img src="http://www.wheelcomponents.com/images/wheel/enkei/rpm2.jpg"></center><p>and decided to open up the boxes and inspect them before they are installed tomorrow. 1st 3 were beautiful, but the last one is clearly used - complete with minor curb rash! WTF!

I'm not sure what I want to do about it. I could demand a new wheel and delay installation. I could ask for some $ back and continue with tomorrow's installation. I could tell them I will be installing it, but they will be replacing it when the new wheel comes in. I don't know what else. What would you do?

Default Get a new wheel and be sure to stay away from curbs so you can resell them someday.

Ask them to make sure it's ok to mount it before replacing it. They may push the responsibility it back on you if you mount it.

Default I was wondering the same thing! Good thing I decided to not have them install them. I may

not have noticed until too late.

Default Local place - don't want to say name until this is resolved. I just called a bunch of

local places that did wheels and told them what I needed and left my number for them to see if they could get them.

Two online places I found them listed (no clue if they actually have them now or how reputable they are):
<a href="http://www.g-forceperformanceandsound.com/enkei.htm">http://www.g-forceperformanceandsound.com/enkei.htm</a>
<a href="http://www.gruppe-s.com/Enkei/Enkei_rpm2.htm">http://www.gruppe-s.com/Enkei/Enkei_rpm2.htm</a>
