I've ordered some rays lug nuts in the U.S. and after 4 weeks they arrived over here in Belgium together with my Swift Spring (front install yet)

But now i wanted to bolt on my rims and i discover that the lug nuts are not fitting the holes of my GT-U's......

A week ago i bought some lug nuts over here in belgium because i could not wait any longer, but they aren't quite light ones. they weight about 5x more then the rays.

Here you can see a picture that they dont fit.
Anyone a explanation for this?

 

That's weird.

 

^ I believe he has Volk GT-Us

 

Yes i do have Volk GT-U.

Are they different?

 

They're fake Rays...

 

I hope you mean the lug nuts and not the rims??

The rims came in original Volk Racing boxes.

 

GT-Us come with special 17mm lugs. Ray Duranuts will not work with these wheels, Sorry !

 

This is the box of the lug nuts

*edit*
I told the vendor that it was for GT-U's
Normally he should know that those nuts will not fit the GT-U's i suppose

 

NOT all vendors are on the same page, they didn't know what they're talking about trust me. I've owned more Volks than I would like to admit

 

u should return it to the vendor, they told u the wrong info!

 

+1

 

I paid 150$ for them (inclusive shipment), and today i receive the package and had to pay 30% importtax on the springs and lug nuts (180$ for all)

So asume that i paid the nuts about 170$, when i send them back to the U.S. i need to pay about 25$ shipment.
That makes 195$ in total.

I can not recover all my money i think.If the vendor agrees in taking them back i will only get the money of the nuts back which is 130$.That is 65$ gone.

Grtz

 

i would try and sell them to someone local. other than that, try explaining this to the vendor, maybe they can discount the new lugs so you end up breaking even

 

I've allready bought some nuts over here in Belgium because my package was hold at the customs for 3 weeks.

So i have nuts now, but i will try to sell them local.

 

Buwahahah... ohh man... that statement gave me a pretty good laugh!
