OZ wheels?
#4
When I needed help and tried to communicate with Damon - I got no response from him nor from email I sent nor from PM on the forum (but received read confirmation) so I did not hear back until I actually placed my order online without any help whatsoever what was quite frustrating and then he somehow found me and requested info about my order. Not sure what for.
So I bet he is a great guy but it was not my experience. Other tirerack people I tried to call could not even tell me over the phone what specific offset range for rear rims is allowed for my 997 C2. So, well, it was me and my business with them, so I guess it is only worth doing if you do know perfectly what is it you want to get from them. I am not holding any grudge, against anybody, it is just what it is.

I think ultraleggeras at tirerack were out of stock for this whole year.

The reason I asked you for your order info after the fact (I knew because you bought OZ's, and OZ's likely come from us and you posted pictures) was just to check it over to make sure it was correct and that you were getting the best price you could have. What I don't understand is that even after two attempts asking you refused to let me help you, as if to say "what do you care now".
I asked because I felt bad you got overlooked to be honest, and I still do.
Again, I apologize. I'll do better next time if you let me.

I have no grudge against nobody, I just comment on what it was.
Most of my frustration had nothing to do with you at all but with other tirerack reps to whom I spoke,as I made 3 calls total and no one of those people I spoke to could intelligently answer questions I had, all the time we were getting back to same web interface I had access to myself with same limited options it was returning. I was pretty confused with all this ordeal as depending of submodel selection (C2 or C2S which do have same compatibility for wheels) system was giving out different set of wheels and tires-to-wheels selections and some items that could be found by size only were not included at all, well, it took me some time to figure all that out. It is a good system you got there, but some stuff is pretty messed up there IMHO.

I've always had good luck with Tire Rack though I've never dealt with Damon nor found it necessary to deal with one specific individual. I have placed several tire orders over the internet with them, been contacted by them in a timely manner to confirm my order and gotten my tires next day ( they're real close buy ) via UPS. Have never purchased wheels from them however, and would agree that's a bit more complicated than tires, particularly for a PCar. But am still a fan of the company. Would also recommend Discount Tire. Have only worked with one local center but they're a knowledgeable group and very customer oriented. Had 'em mount a couple sets of the Tire Rack tires I bought that Discount Tire didn't rep directly and got treated like I'd just spent $ 1000 for tires from them instead of their competition.

I can think of others who considered them but opted for something else.
When I chose my wheels there's so many .. it wasn't easy then and lately the selection and choices are even better which makes the choice harder .
What exactly do you want from the wheel ? Is it "looks" ? Function? Safety ? Value?
Obviosly the cheapest wheels are the stock wheels on the car .
Take the time to pin down what you expect to gain from choosing the wheel . Think it through because once you make the choice it adds a lot of flavor to the car .
Good luck.

I have never been a fan of the OZ wheels, but I am a big fan of tirerack. I have had nothing but top notch service from them, for all three sets of wheels and tires I have purchased from them over the years. Even when there was a slight mess up with one of the orders, it was immediately rectified.
