bad day

What a day! I supposed to get all of my rims today and some gorilla lugs. Instead there's bits and pieces missing. First of all after getting pissed off of the UPS people, now I have to deal with the missing gorilla lugs errrrr. I only recieved 18 out of 20 lugs in the package that I ordered and 3 out of 4 rims today. I guess UPS is re-schedualing the delivery until tomorrow for that last rims. Either way after getting the last rim tomorrow I'mma take it to the local les schwab shop to get it mount and balance. I'm just hoping they can spare me 2 lugs.

Man....what a day.

Just buy a wheel lock set of 4 lugs so that you only need 16 Gorilla lugnuts and you'll be set.

Well I guess there is no bright side to this just yet. I recently found out that I got the wrong size offset on the rims. Now I have to ship it back, that's gonna take a few week untile I get the one that I needed back. It turns out that I got a free pack of lugs after I email them about the missing two lugs. That was nice of them to give me the whole package instead of just the missing 2 lugs . Hopefully I get the right rims this time.

Could this get any better
