    ^Well at least they got back to you with something. I spoke with someone this morning who seemed helpful and they assumed they were backordered and said they'd get back to me - that never happened :(

    What these wheels??? I bought mine in Feb 09 from the dealership, did not have to provide a vin. Gave the dude the part #, he asked how many I wanted, they showed up the next day. As far as I know they have been on sale ever since. Before that they were on national stop sale.

    600 for wheels
    + 720 for tires
    = Excellent combo and lots of compliments!

    Very nice, that is the first set I have seen that looks good. White lettering really helps. Most of the time they look too small, just out of proportion to the truck. Oh well my preference I guess. In my mind if they were 17s they would be perfecto

    Order Date/Time: 2010-09-09 at 21:15. On a different note my credt card was charged $572.00 and not $484.00, so I paid the price they had advertised on their web site.

    Wow.... They are going to hear an ear full from me tomorrow. I ordered mine at Order Date/Time 2010-09-08 17:49:54. And they told me they would order them that day....have them the next day and ship on the 10th. Looks like someone sold you the wheels they ordered for me. And now I have to wait at least 10 business days. lol Order Date/Time2010-09-08 17:49:54 Order Date/Time2010-09-08 17:49:54Order Date/Time2010-09-08 17:49:54

    I was really surprised that my order shipped on Sept 10th since I ordered them on the evening of the 9th (had to go back and update my order info on my earlier post since I had several emails from them).

    That's kinda what I figured. My order time/date: 2010-09-09 11:25:09

    Dang. When I called them (again) yesterday they just told me they were backordered and no clue when I would receive them.

    Sweet.

    Hey guys, glad I found this site. I'm happy they have opened ordering back up for these so the people waiting across the country can finally own them. I was lucky enough to get them earlier this year on my 4runner and love them. Anyways, I just moved to Charlotte and Friday leaving work some girl backed out of a spot and into my wheel while I was driving by. I'm trying to get her a documented estimate to avoid going through insurance and was going to see if you guys could be so helpful as to guide me to the best location. I have read the thread in its entirety but it seems there are mixed reviews on what is shady and whats not. Lowest price is not my concern :) Just need an official estimate for the wheel. Thanks a lot! Here's a picture of my truck. Great site you have here. Sorry I don't have a Taco, don't hate me

    here is the damage the wheel and tire sustained

    and this is how her rear bumper took it

    Sorry about threadjac but since the guy is a 4 runner and Im thinkin he's not searching the other threads much, and a lot of us like the General Grabbers I want to ask if Miler PKA could give us some info on his impressions on the tires so far. Huh can ya plz? They look pretty sic w/ the TRD rims fa sure.

    SORRY, yeah, planned on that too but thought other guys would like to know about generals, but I guess I can ask him to respond to one of those threads too.
    thanks, again sorry.

    I love the Generals. Off roading has been minimal lately because I moved for my job right after I got them installed. I need the truck to perform as a dd currently so off roading is out of the question at the moment. Wish I could give you more insight, I'll have some better reviews down the road

    Is the wheel bent? What about your alignment? That was a pretty hefty shot to the wheel/suspension by the looks of her bumper. I would be asking her for an new wheel mounted and balanced/alignment at a minimum. Hope you got a report from the Popo aka da Police, insurance companies are funny about having a report. An old saying "if it's not between the four squares of a piece of paper it did not happen"

    As stated in my previous post, shoptrd is where I got the price of $121.00 per wheel and have the reciept to prove it. The wheels were shipped via fedex free to my home in 4 days and I live here in western NC.

    Thank you for that. I will try and find their contact information for tomorrow. The wheel was not bent, I took it on a 20 mile test drive yesterday and noticed no difference in driving. Crawled underneath and everything seems to be in order. However her final estimate will include rim, mount and balance and alignment. Thanks again, any more information anyone wants to lend feel free

    Miller, your runner is SICK!

    As you may have gathered from the last several pages though, the wheels are not exactly available from Richardson Toyota right now. Some of us are waiting for orders to be fulfilled and don't know how long that may take.
