You kinda made it sound like you ordered something and he changed the order after you left the store??

That's actually what he did. He said they had 18x8's and 18x9's and he told the company he wanted 9.5's and he ended up with 18x10's. I had been worried all week that gunmetal would not look good. I think I'm a little relieved that they came in that color. Plus I got bigger wheels for the same price.

I had no problem with the tires until I realized the back looked smaller than the front. I got new tires put on today. 295 / 35

Is everyone happy now?
