    My wheels and tires arrived today (New Orleans area) but the rims are not what I ordered so I will not be accepting them.

    Today is Memorial Day so I will address this with Performance Plus Tire tomorrow, but I am preempting their solution to see if anyone wants to make a local offer rather than shipping them back. I would guess they would accept a local sale at their cost, not the retail price, but fire away with an offer. Just trying to facilitate this screw up and get my correct order here asap.

    The order is correct except I ordered black and machined aluminum, not all black wheels and that is a deal breaker for me. Great setup, just pissed I want the aluminum and black. I absolutely decided against all black rims.

    This was for my 2006 Tacoma TRD Sport. Tires are Cooper Discoverer AT/3 4S 265/65/17R with Ultra Wheels Mongoose (all black) 17x9 offset +1mm backspace 5". Also with TPMS installed and I believe nitrogen filled I will have to verify that. Mounted and balanced with lugnuts.

    Also, only three of the tires arrived so the FEDEX driver said he will go check and the fourth is likely at the hub, and I should see it today or tomorrow. I can share the invoice with any serious buyer.

    The product image is what I ordered, not what arrived, obviously.tires01.jpg tires02.jpg tires03.jpg mongoose.jpg

    You should talk with your supplier first. I'm reasonably sure they will make the correction.

    If you sell them, then you have accepted the shipment and need to pay for the goods.

    Yes, Performance Plus Tires has been very proactive, great customer service. They will be my go-to in the future. They beat Tire Rack by over $100, and a family owned business for over 80 years I believe, with a a few warehouses around the country. They had a mistake in their stock numbers, but the ones I wanted are not available, so they are sending me a different but similar set of rims I selected, and will have them mounted and balanced on the tires I have. I'll be shipping them the other rims back unless someone local wants to buy, they are fine with that.
