complain about what?? I can get volks but i dont want to pay 2k for rims i bought 1700 rims for the Z then i have another set of 1600 rims for the Z and waste of funds in my opinion i did it once im not doing it again. Ill get rotas before i do volks unless i find somebody selling a style i like for less then 1600. im not buying another turbocharger again or another built block again on rims lol putting out 1k per items is over. TSCOMPUSA dont discreit my JMS love those vids are not the newest and i posted the newest awhile back. You have to keep in mind they are doing my work but until my car is completed tuned and running like a champion i will not fully but a sponsor lol but when i was down there i did help install guages and they treated me like family and everybody was friendly so nice place to be for sure
