No word on the Z06 wheels yet Neil. I'll find out when I talk to them next. I know they are out of the 10.5 wide wheels but they do have the 9.5's in stock. He just didn't give me a price and it wasn't on the fax today.
Ok let me know when you find out. I would want a set of 10.5s so if they are out of stock find out when they expect more, I can wait if the price is right and they can get black with no rivets.
Will do.

Just to confirm my PM:
I'd like (4) 17x9.5 ZR-1 wheels in Polished finish shipped to 22066.
I just sent a money order to you with my shipping address, assuming that shipping would be $15 per wheel (total: $508) since I'm very close to one of the zip codes that's already been posted. (If I need to kick in a few more dollars for shipping, let me know and I'll send you a PayPal for the difference.)
Thanks!

Ok. We're going to close things with the current orders. If someone wants in and can get payment to me before I get all the payments from those on the list, we'll put you in. If not, I'll either refund your cash or put you on a standby list for a second order (your choice).

Do we get extra credit for referrals? Sorry. since Im one of Tireracks best customers, they take me to dinner once a month to get my business. Just kidding.
I have TR's link in a prominent position on my Desktop. I will use our FRRAX link in the future if we get credit for it.
Unfortunately ($$$), I will be needing it quite a bit over the next few months.

Tirerack only supports the site when we "sell something", so if nobody uses the link, we get no financial support. HP, Eastwood and Northern tool are the same way.

Yes. Sorry about that. I never got the exact shipping for your address (I don't think). My best guess is 16 each for freight.

I talked to them this morning, the are already buried in the truck and I can't change them. The good news is that if you can sell them, I can order you another set at the GP price (they had a slight price increase after this started, but it will be the same or very close). So, you might try to sell them off and I can re-order you another set in black.
Also, the black wheels will be arriving on Tuesday (they are ahead of schedule) since Monday is a holiday. So, they will go out about the middle of next week.

Yeah I think this is what I will do. I don't think I'll have a hard time getting most of my money back for a brand new set, and I don't have a certain date I need them by. I could probably sell them by twos to people on LS1tech. I do appreciate your help though making the call.
