Kopi Wheel Group Buy - 15",16",17" and 18"

[svn2002s]

Thanks for the update, this waiting game is killing me.

We are at the mercy of the factory.
As we are the only buyer of the 16" Kopi wheels they are not in a hurry to produce them.
ETA looks like mid. to late March.
Also the fact that we only had 7 firm orders, delayed the production.
If you want to opt out, we will refund your deposit.

So, When the hell are we getting the wheels??????????? any date yet? almost 4.5 months since the first post. wtf is going on.

Yes-the next shipment will have the old hub style .
Unfortunately they will cost more as well.
We do not expect them until late March.
In the meantime we are selling the ones we have at the GB price with free shipping (USA).

All I want to know is will the new shipment be corrected for the 17's with the old hub style, and when u will get those in?

Kopi Wheels

We're waiting for an ETA on the 16" Kopi wheels and will let you know as soon as we hear from the factory.
We have stressed to the factory that the 16" wheels must have the old hub style made specifically for 4 x 100 applications.
We have 15" x 6.5" Kopi wheels in stock at the GB price of $599 a set - these have the old style hubs.
All 4 x 100 17" x 7.5" Kopi wheels in stock with the 4 or 5 lug hub design will be offered at the GB price of $699 a set with free shipping (USA) and free hubcentric rings - first 10 sets sold only.This is a savings of about $250 a set when you factor in the shipping.
The center caps with emblems are included.

It just sucks that imported shit doesn't go down when the Dollar is up.

If the dollar is up, relative to the countries currency from which the product is being imported, the product will be cheaper in dollar terms.

Now whether or not the importer wants to pass that savings on to the consumer is a different story...

How is a tanking US dollar "not justified"?

uh.... can you READ? I said... whether or not it is justified. I didnt say "its not justified" nor "it is justified" Why is everyone always trying to start something thats not there? I simply said, no one likes to pay more for something, in a joking obvious sense.

The economy goes up and down. Sue the government if you don't like it. Such as life.

The $20 per wheel price increase sucks... But thats an $80 well spent if it means the centers will be back to normal.

The price we pay is in foreign currency and as long as the Dollar weakens, we have to pay more for the wheels and shipping from overseas.

The previous batch was not a screw up - the factory decided to make one hub style for 4 and 5 lug 17" wheels (without telling us) to keep costs down.
As most people use the center caps provided anyway, there have not been many objections.
At $209 the 17" x 7.5" Kopi wheel is still a great buy - even with the different hub design.

So if that's the case they will go down when the dollar gains back some ground? Otherwise this just sounds like your way to make up for the previous batch screw up.
