I looked it up. It's a huge building and there are several businesses in it.

Yeah they have the same phone, fax and address. What made me aware was the bill of lading info on my return wheels when they sent me the information. It said Zinik and I was kinda confused.

I'm really starting to believe that my driveline/tranny issue, LCA issue, strut issue, end link issues, sway bar braket issues, fender well issues and alignment and realignment issues are all caused by these fucking wheels. Hell, my car gets out of alignment often. On it's own. Every time I've had it aligned from swapping LCA I've had it realigned and every time the front has gone out too. |

The good news is that I am very happy with my Forgeline wheels and they didn't cost nearly as much! It was a learning experience. I should have been more patient before jumping in to buy wheels. I simply didn't know enough about them. |

I'm not going to speculate but I don't think any of us saw these particular problems coming...

The funny part was when I had my stock wheels I could put them back on and the vibration was gone. Period. A set of wheels is not worth all this. Quote:

I really do not think it is a size issue at all becuase there are alot of people who have 22's and are having no issues, they are just using other brands. But what puzzels me is that Dangeruss has the exact same wheels as mine, except he had his painted. NOW his paint fell off, but he didn't have any vibration issues, kinda like Emma. Then you have Randy who has had both paint and vibration issues, then me with just vibration issues although mine are just chrome, glad I didn't go with the paint. Well supposedly they are supposed to be back today and I guess we will see what the real deal is. |

Well originally they told me Monday, just not WHICH Monday, LOL But I did get the Pro Number and checked the website this morning at it says " Out For Delivery" but you know how that goes. Will be real interested to bolt these things back on and go for a drive. I am sure I will have to clean them up first, but that is ok. Just long as they do not vibrate. |

Crossing my fingers for you. I have to give you credit for not putting up with Savini's BS throughout this whole thing. It amazes me that they are even still in business after the way they have handled all of your's, PQ's, and Em's issues.

If the truth were really known I am sure that this is a pretty big problem, but people get buffalo'd alot of times to accept things they shouldn't. If I were to come into your house and do some remodeling or build you a new house, I would be MADE fix it because of the laws and licensing requirements irregardless of what I thought. It is a regulated industry, evidentially wheel making is not and if it is then there must be a governing body that controls it, just haven't found who they are, YET. |

Hmmm I'm going to do some digging and see what I can find on a "governing body" for wheels. Not promising anything, but if I can't find it then it probably doesn't exist.

Let me say first, that I really feel bad for all of you that have had bad experiences with Savini. But on the same token, I want to really thank you for posting your experiences here on the forum. It sucks that people have to get suckered in order for others to avoid making the same mistake, but I guess that is just the way it goes. I hope you get your wheels back brother and they don't have any of the problems that you have been describing. All of the comments on here have helped my choose my current wheels, and I couldn't be happier. It's nice to know that the consumer still has a voice against companies who think just because a fat pitcher for the yankees rolls their wheels or they mount them on Lamborghinis that they are quality products. Good luck to all, and keep encourage people to do their research!

I guess that is how I justified the expense thinking I was GETTING what I PAID for..........NOT. Of course we all try and do research and ger recommendations on things like this but in the end it was my decision, not a wise one it turns out. I too, hope they arrive today vibration and issue free. BUT it still will not change the fact of the problems and issues that have been gone through by me and SEVERAL others here on just this one forum.......If I can save one person from going through this ordeal then it is worth the embarassment. If someone chooses to buy this brand at least they know upfront what they are getting into and the potential downfalls and consequences of their purchase. I guess money does not always buy quality no matter how many times I hear " You get what you pay for"......I guess not. |
