Only some people had problems with them...my brother for example had no problems at all ordering from them. Open them up before shipping them back you may like the rim and it may fit ok.

you could always refuse delivery when they arrive, but you cant open them if you do it. no sign no pay, just refust the shipment. then UPS returns to sender.

Yeah don't sweat it. Just make sure they are exactly what you ordered before you even attempt to install them. I hope you paid with a credit card. You'll be fine.

I've had 2 sets of Konigs on some other vehicles I had and loved them. No bends, no cracks and they always balanced up good. Never any issues with Konig

Volk/Rays same people.... Racing Harts are cool as long as they are not the ****ty soft as butter Evo 1 peipce wheels. Advans.... dont do it for me. Konigs are goos strong wheels IMHO. I have had them on a few of my cars with no problems.
You want real wheels...
HRE
Fikse
Kenesis
CCW
I-Forge
Braid
Simons ect......

Um, correct me if Im wrong but G-racing im pretty sure is Giovanna Racing, not Gianelle. Ive never even heard of that brand. But, alas, I could be wrong.
