i got used rims from craigslist and they didn't fit in my teg. basically i got frauded....what can i do? i lost $300...can i find the seller by his email address? i have hi email address and phone number, but he never picks up the phone. has anybody had the same experience as me?? i don't know what to do here

 

[integrashadow]

wait how did u get frauded?u can email him. where did u meet him? if he doesnt pick up his phone then i dont know u might juss wanna try selling them urself

call his phone from another phone, he probably has your numner saved and he doesnt pick up whenever he sees it, try a private number one day too...maybe he'll think its his friends house phone or something.

If it's a house number, do a reverse look up on his number.
Hopefully he's listed.

what do u mean it doesnt fit? is it to big or what, giveus a description

 

[rlawlsgh]

the 4 bolt positions are narrower. so it can't fit in my car. what cars have narrower position of bolts? civic?? i'm just gonna find it out and sell them to other people. rims are not bad at all...
does anyone know?

 

[tangINHISgsr]

post up a picture of the rims, we can get a better dipiction in our heads

 

[potmilkz]

they might be 4x114.. some people get fooled..

 

[mystikalstriker]

yeah, seems like the smartest thing for you to do is just resell them.

 

[rlawlsgh]

i know...i should have put them on before i bought...well i learned from this experience.... if it's 4X114, what cars have this patteren??

 

[mystikalstriker]

honda accord, that's all i can think of right now. Not too sure if the preludes have that same pattern.

 

[koji126]

jdm itr have a 4x114 pattern. I don't mean to be rude or anything, but you should pay more attention to what you're buying and whether or not it can fit your car. Please post the ad or if the seller did specify it was 4x114 and not 4x100.

 

[rlawlsgh]

he said it's from his integra and he said 4X100 pattern. he just lied to me. oh well i will just resell them with the same price i paid.

 

[DC-DOHCtor]

that seller is shady!!!
but you have to put in some work when buying things from other people!

for starters you should have looked at the inner side of the rims, and it should state the bolt pattern.
seeing 4x114 should have rang up a red light on the sell.

if its a home phone u can do a Reverse Phone Lookup at www.switchboard.com

 

[rlawlsgh]

i don't think it's a home phone....

this is the rims that i got. can you tell the bolt pattern by looking at it?

 

[koji126]

Look on the wheel itself, it should say if its 4x100 or 4x114

 

[ishbog]

saw your other thread. sell them again, they look sick in gunmetal.

 

[maxoutracer]

yeah, the pattern look like 4x??? who would knoe unless the inside of the wheels are stamped... happen to me before... brought a set of volks, the dude said 5x114 and label 5x114... so i pick them up when i tired install it on my legend... didn't fit then to find out its 5x100... so im stuck with a set of volks. oh well....
