Re: OEM M-sport 17" Staggered Rims+tyres (CHEATED)
Hi i know I will be going off topic but need to warn the brothers here against this dishonest seller who is also the thread starter - titansilver :angry: :furious: :furious: :furious:
I am very new to the forum and recently started looking for a set of 17" rims for my E90 320 in this part of the forum. I came across titansilver selling his sets of rims. I sms my interest to his number 9864XXXX. He goes by the name of ERIC. We agreed to meet up on Monday evening at his place - Blk 304 Bukit Batok Street 31 ( he said he stayed at level 2). As it was my first time buying rims, I was a bit apprehensive but I saw a friendly guy standing next to a set of 4 rims and tires all stack up waiting for me as I parked my car next to the block. The tires (CSC 2) and rims on top of the stack looks to be in very good condition. I asked ERIC if these setup can fit my car and he said no problem as he has checked with Performance Motor. He told me that these rims and tires are very new and has gotten only 8,000km. The tires do not have all similar thread pattern but 2 of each are the same. ERIC is quite smart, he stack the 2 same patterns together and told me that the top 2 (same pattern) are for the front and the bottom 2(same pattern) are for the rear. In my head, I was thinking, if front and back are not the same pattern, it does not matter and did not check closely
. Anyway...light was not too dim as it was night. I asked ERIC if there are anything else I need to look out for as it was my first time buying rims for my car. He told me not to worry as the set are in mint condition. When asked if any kurb rash, he assure me don't have....and told me that he will sell it to me at $880 at a great loss and that a new set cost over $3600 with tires :woowooo: When asked why he sell so "CHEAP" he said ....my loss your gain....
I told ERIC that I am interested but cannot buy on that day because I only have time for installation on Thursday morning and my boot is half full and will get from him on Wednesday. He seems quite desperate to sell and told me might as well get it today and gave me ideas on how to carry it (2 in boot and 2 in back seat). I finally decided to buy it that night thinking that it was a good deal. I bought the rims and tires and brought it to my parent's place as they stay on the ground floor while I stay on high rise apartment and did not inspect it further.
Yesterday morning (15 May) , I brought the rims and tires to the shop to get it changed. The first comment from the guy was "Your left and right not the same." I told the guy confidently that it is the front and back different pattern only. He then showed me that left side front and back are CSC with older rims while right side front and back are CSC2 with newer rims :yikess: :yikess: :yikess: The guy told me most likely ERIC had crashed the car on the right and damaged the 2 right wheels and got it replaced. Since CSC are no longer in production, ERIC has to get CSC 2
I immediately called ERIC a couple of times but he did not pick up :furious: . I left him a few messages asking him why he was not truthful and ask him to get back to me but there was no reply. :furious: I believe that he has the intent to cheat and found an ignorant buyer and will never return any call.
I have to leave the set of wheels in the shop as the tires are almost useless and dangerous to use on the road. I will have to spend another $1,000 to get 4 new tires of the same pattern. Now headache and don't know whether to sell the rims cheaply or get new tires......
I guess there is nothing I can do but just take this as a $880 lesson since this CHEAT - ERIC (aka titansilver) refuse to answer any phone calls or reply any SMS.
After searching the forum, I discovered that he has been trying to sell these since 13 Feb 2007. All this time, the information given was not consistent.

You can see how the tires mileage advertised can fluctuate from 6k to 10k then to 9k and then to 10k and finally to 8k. All these while he claims that his tires are not used.
I know I very suay to meet a cheat like him but others as newbie as me should not have to suffer like this. Please take note of his details and beware when dealing with him in future as he might appear in this forum with another Nick.

Re: OEM 17" M Style 68 Rims+tyres for Sale
awesome, for starters, you would of needed spacers to fit an E90 as well
I feel sorry for you, but the rims are still nice enough rims to sell, obviously without tyres.
So, pm me your price, I will see if i can help you get rid of them

I tried to call him again knowing that he will not pick up the phone on seeing my number.
Sad to know that this kind of people also drive a Bimmer. Tarnish the reputation......
