My BRAND NEW STILL IN THE BOX Billet Intros in the V_ROD style have been stolen! Two 20x8.5 inch fronts and two 22x10 inch rears with a seven inch dish. These wheels were custom orders and made for my VL. They will show up somwhere @ sometime! Stolen from Sydney's eastern suburbs but get the feeling they will show up further west? Cost me a f-ucking fortune and am extremely p-issed off! If anyone see's them on a car or hears of them for sale or even someone saying there ordering a set? could they please let me know as i am REALLLLLY interested in having a chat with them! Thanks.

They went missing from Sydneys Eastern suburbs (like as far east as you can get) They were personal imports! One of a kind custom wheels and take a lot to fit under the bum of a commodore.

Well over 5K Vanished into thin air! And everyone says "sorry cant help ya" thats bull**** bloke i worked for aus post. if you didnt sign to recieve them then you legally never took them into your possesion. the person you bought them off has to refund you and the courier company he used has to refund him. i'd go see a solicitor Some original photos have not been recovered yet.

I was responsible for bringing them to Aus not the wheel company, They were delivered to a friends place in the US (Wheel companys no longer liable) They were put into his shipping container by him personally in a rush (container was waiting for my wheels) then shipped to Aus without the Consignment note being updated that my wheels were in there!!!! When container landed in Sydney it was Xrayed by customs (Random insp) Then opened??????? We recieved the container MINUS MY WHEELS! AND MINUS 40 GRANDS WORTH OF OTHER GOODS!!! "Sorry mate everything on your consignment is in your container!" So someone elses mistake cost us big time as now we have no leg to stand on? And before everyone says can you trust the guy in the US? The answer is yes!
