I was told 3 weeks, but like everyone is telling me "expect 4 to 6"

I ended up ordering profile 5s
17x7 and 17x8 with gunmetal centers and polished lip

I accidently chipped the coat while trying to remove the damn center cap. The technipolish finish is very delicate and requires special care

Definitely nice wheels. You'll be impressed. I am very happy with my FM10s! I got the polished lip with satin anodized center, and it's unbelievable how the center matches the cortez silver paint on the car. Almost like I planned it that way.....

Had Fedex try to drop off 4 boxes today... but I wasnt home. Hopefully will get them tomorrow.



UPDATE: The wheels are in! Didnt have time to look all of them over, but opened one of the rear wheels. LOVE THEM!

Ordered on February 1st, and to my door on March 6th... so about 5 weeks. NOT BAD!!! Totally worth the wait.
