I have never dealt with Driverzinc, only NewGen and this is my first transaction with them.
The invoice for my wheels/tires came from NewGen, has NewGen email addresses and different contact info from anything I ever saw in here or on Driverzinc website (now taken down). I'd like to think that someone ripping me off wouldn't bother answering the phone (even after hours once). I honestly think he completely stepped away and started over until he found out Travis wasn't in for the long haul.
Does that mean I'm not worried....no. After reading this I am definitely concerned and will have to think over the weekend whether or not I am going to pull the plug. I called him because this week is the 6th week of the estimated 4-6wk production time and I wanted an update/pics/something showing some progress. While he did answer all my questions and give me an update on where everything was at he also said it would be 2 more weeks. That's what really got me concerned. I've seen a couple threads on here where 6wks turned into 12-15wks, and I don't have that kind of patience or timeline.
I'd really like to think he's just dealing with the fallout of a bad business deal, but I'm not comfortable banking my $$ on it.

SORRY, SOMEBODY HAS TO SAY IT.....
Don't be an idiot. Pull the plug.
Lots and lots of good wheel manufacturers out there. You know. The kind that don't rip people off. They don't lie. They deliver when they say they will.
