morph1119 08-09-2005, 08:40 AM I ordered some rims from wheelmax.com which i was suppose to receive on 8/4 but was rescheduled twice to 8/8 which I still dont know why and this is the condition it came in.Can you believe it?I dont know whos to blame, UPS or the company? but it was a miracle there was no damage that i noticed.What was even more funny was one box was completely open like someone opened it.One of my friends told me it looks like they just came out of a dumpster.that was funny i had to admit .

DisneybB 08-09-2005, 12:46 PM Unbelievable! :doh: I ordered wheels and tires from Tirerack years ago and they came without boxes but had thick cardboard and padding on each side and those plastic straps, 8 of them holding the whole thing together. Just the outer tire rubber was showing. They were very well packaged. Now I know why Wheelmax has such cheap prices.
Reminder to self, " don't buy from wheelmax.com"
Lonely_Raven 08-09-2005, 01:02 PM Looks like typical UPS to me.
I'm glad they arrived in one piece!!
daewonder 08-09-2005, 02:16 PM my teins arrived in a similar fashion. not quite as bad as that though.
Munch 08-09-2005, 02:19 PM I'm not suprised. That's whyI don't use UPS to ship anything. Everytime I get packages from them they look like that :tap: .
sciontc313 08-09-2005, 03:12 PM damn! u are lucky man!

uber-xA-RS2 08-09-2005, 03:31 PM Looks like they were trying to roll them around even though the box is SQUARE.

Sid_xBicious 08-09-2005, 04:22 PM Blame UPS, but also blame the packaging. Single walled box with one tape? I use UPS, but I don't package like that. That heavy, I even use straps.
Weejub 08-09-2005, 07:28 PM So show us the actual wheels! :)
DisneybB 08-09-2005, 07:46 PM Maybe UPS Raced the Truck with your wheels.
sprslug_182 08-09-2005, 08:04 PM I went to an interview for UPS here in Phoenix. Let me tell you it was a disappointment. I will never work for a company that allows employees to throw boxes around and encourage them to work too fast for their own good. They do it to themselves. I believe UPS is going down hill with all the promises they are making to people. They have the same fleet they've had, yet they have too much to do. They should slow down and do things properly or else they will be spending more money for damage claims than making it.
mikochu 08-09-2005, 09:04 PM UPS isn't that bad, even though they lost two of my wheels. I've never had a mangled box delivered by UPS. Also, the only Miami-based wheel shop I'd recommend would be Edge Racing. I've heard a lot of bad things about Wheel Max. And looking at the packaging, it looks like Wheel Max should be blamed for it.
Post pics once you've got it install. Actually I wanna see them now! :P
morph1119 08-09-2005, 11:58 PM Im getting my car lowered tomorrow morning so they will be up soon.And you are right ive dealt with ups for years now and this is the first time I ever gotten a package in this kind of condition so i dunno.I guess s**t happens
