Default Got my new Circuit 8's today from www.machiii.net .....

nothing but good stuff to say about machiii.net - great customer service, lightning fast shipping (ordered wheels on tuesday, got them on friday). only problem was that one of the wheels has a tiny ding in it from shipping (******* UPS throwers), so i am currently contacting machiii about it, but other than that, they get a big for the fast, friendly service, and matching a low price i found....

notice the "thrashed" condition of a couple of the boxes! **** UPS!!!


ahh, nothing like nice new clean wheels!



*EDIT* here are the pics of the ding in the one wheel . its not too bad, but it is noticeable. im still waiting on an email back from machiii......

they are Bronze w/ Polished Lip, 16x7 inch Circuit 8's. yeah, their pics pages are not up to date, but you'll see at the bottom of the pic pages that there is an "inventory" link, click on that and you can see their entire rota inventory. the color of these is "Royal Bronze" - royal just means that the wheel has a polished lip, so any rota with the word royal in it just means that.

they have every GT3 available, i almost bought the royal bronze gt3's (no one is rocking those), but i figured that big lip would be too much bling for a white car. this is my 2nd set of C8's, so i am very please with them so far. i put my first set through hell, and they held up perfectly. these wheels are gonna get some serious road race time on them, se we'll see how they hold up against the heat and pressure, but i think they will be just fine. rota gets a huge from me!

the technical advice is the feedback of the business, plus letting people know that they do sell all of the rotas available.

and more tech advice would be that from prior experience, if you have a 215/40 16 on a 92-95 civic and it is lowered, you're gonna have to cut or roll your fenders because they WILL rub a tiny bit if you dont. there's your "tech"

Do you have a pic of the damage on that one wheel? It must be bad if you're already contacting Machiii about it.
