I might have about 7 straggling 18x9.5 for spares and one full set left.

I also have about 6 NT03 5x100 18x9.5 SBC that should be available to me very shortly too.

Do pfo1, nt03+m, Or gtc01's.

I agree. Let us buyers enjoy our somewhat rare wheels for a while before pumping out more sets. Please. One of the reasons I wanted to buy these wheels from Dezod is because they are not being mass produced. I hope that doesn't change.

That's literally a percentage of of a fraction of Scion owners. Your wheels will still be rare. We ran 80 DG Spec wheels last year. Nobody complained at all about it.

^ Well with that being said. I could see why these would do well on group buys. They are AMAZING!

How bad did both your wheels get damaged?
I opened mine up and took a quick look at them but I'm going to check them real good to see if any of mine got damaged.
Hopefully mine aren't cursed lol

Mine got damaged during shipping. Looks like the box just got knocked into something. Now I'm reading it could take up to 45 days to get a replacement. I'm really unhappy with my sale now.
