Got a set today. They look good...
but they came with scratches.
I guess I don't have to worry about getting
the first scratch. That was one less thing to
worry about...

They are 195/50/15.
I went with a set of dunlops. Dz102. They seem
to drive well. Very quiet...and no vibration even up and over
80mph.

Futofab and Dave Patten, Owner are amazing!
My scratched rims were replaced within 6 days.
I sent one email to Dave about the condition
of these rims upon delivery and Dave did the rest.
Unbelievable Customer Service!!!
Do not be afraid to deal with Futifab...they WILL
take care of you.
Cheers

Things like that can be a shipping issue so don't be afraid to open the box and make a claim, if it appears like damage occurred in transit.

Sean,
Thank you for the kind words, but it really helps when the manufacturer stands in your corner when issues arise.
FutoFab has always strived for quality and as part of doing that we have tried to select suppliers of that same mindset, which seems to be working.

Good customer service is money in the bank for ANY organization. Nice to hear that some folks get it. In the long run it's always a win/win for all involved.
