I'm all for hating on Savini, I'm sorry "the pretty boat anchors" as DragonEye has renamed them.

I'm done driving my car till I get these POS f***** wheels off my car. Been having to put air in them every day. EVERY F***** DAY.

Took it Saturday morning to have them redone and on the way to Louisiana to Bonnie parents house I had to stop 5 times in the 160 mile trip to put air in one.

Shop says the chrome is degrading and hard to get a seal.

I'm going to buy a domain and put up a site and add 10 thousand Savini Wheels Suck mentions to it. I'll post the link when I get it up.

I'm so f****** pissed right now I'm sick. They've never held air. The two wheels that won't hold air are the ones they didn't remake for me and the ones losing paint are the ones they remade. So this company is just crooked.

I need a break from these.

I want these Fing pos wheels the F off my car. NOBODY had bee able to get them to hold air right. Not on the two originals. They've held air for about 4 days max till they started Fing up. 4 different shops. NONE can make them hold air.

I'm going to go back and get everyones threads and summarize the problems so that anyone who is thinking of screwign themselves with Savini wheels can have a quick and easy way to read all the problems.

I'll send it to Jkel so he can put it in the OP here. Maybe I'll just start a new thread and ask that John request the new thread be refered to.

Needs to be a reference place to make sure anyone who reads it get's the magnitude and confirmation that this is a shister company with good marketing and a shitty product.
