My new Work Wheels are finally on!!
Excellent choice, congrats, looks good. I agree that the rear would look better with a 10mm, push it out a little,wouldn't rub either
Very well done!

With so many variations between size, width, offset, disc type, back pad, bolt patterns, most importers don't stock wheels. When ordering from the manufacturer from Japan, there is build time...usually a couple weeks.
Then, once done, your wheels are waiting for the importer or freight forwarder to fill up a 40 ft container. Then it's another week on the ocean usually to Long Beach. Then another week or more unloading, inventory, and clearing customs. Then another week or so to ship to you.
Total all this up, and you're looking at the standard 6-8 week wait time. Any problems during any of those steps and you could be delayed for another week or so.
If you want them sooner, just have them air shipped.....but be prepared to pay an arm and a leg.....

In Aus we Air ship everything from overseas since the lack of importers, its roughly $200 US per rim.
But I think those wheels are too plain, You could of bought a no name brand wheel and got the same look.

As far as the long wait... I called and Derrick at D2 said the wheels had missed the February boat (read entire extra month!)

This happens a lot.....which consumers do not take into account....
