Since you already ordered them, the offset probably doesn't matter any more.

I would always lower the car with rims.

Man I hope you haven't paid him yet. They are definitely not a authorized Vossen dealer. And if he some how gets the wheels for you they will not come with our warranty

FYI - Actually there are no authorized dealers that sell our wheels on ebay.

Well, Ebay does have some great deals, but if he/she/they is/are not an authorized dealer of ours, then we can't warranty our wheels. And trust me....everyone loves a 5 year material/workmanship and lifetime structural warranty!

hopefully your company lasts a lifetime to make good on that lifetime warranty.

You didn t use paypal??? hopefully hes not in Nigeria they have a school there that teaches people how to scam Americans out of their $ I almost got, scammed out of a cell phone I sold. I was sent a counterfeit paypal E mail saying my funds for the phone were in a escrow account and would be released when provided a tracking number. Lucky enough, I sold a second one right afterward and my funds entered my account directly so I called Paypal and there was no trace of the first transaction. Realizing I was scammed I rushed to the post office and retrieved my phone before it was mailed out anyway sorry for the story. But what also sucks is that your purchase won t be warranted cause you didn t use and authorized dealer. BTW how much did you pay???
