I'm having a bad case of buyers remorse. I'm thinking the chrome wheels aren't going to go well with the bumper. The bumper will give the off road look but the wheels are more bling.

Can you call them and stop the shipment?

I tried but they were already enroute. I should have waited until after the bumper got mounted but I was getting impatient. That'll teach me. Maybe I shouldn't be second guessing myself.

If it costs too much to send back, you can always get them painted. Might be cool if they matched bumper.

Yea, there's the cost to send them back and I believe they charge a 20% "restocking" fee. I think I like the chrome because it's like what's on there now but not nearly as off road looking as I'm shooting for. We'll see.

OK, it's been decided.... wheels are going back! Just doesn't fit the look I was after. Here are two strong candidates...

Fuel Beasts

Fuel Couplers

Fuel Vapors

Same line up but with 17" wheels...

For what it's worth ,I like the 1st ones in 18s.
What's the latest on your bumper?

Vancouver Bob · Apr 30, 2017

Thanks, SC... that was the style I was leaning towards until I went with the Rockstars.

Word on the bumper is a bit nebulous... I left a message with the HNC shop on Thursday to see how likely I'd be able to get in this week but never heard anything back. I'm going to call them on Monday to get a read. There's also a 4x4 shop near by that I'm going to call as a plan B. Sucks that the bumper doesn't just bolt on.
