Default BEWARE of e-Bay seller

Everyone be careful when buying wheels from a1_spec or AspecWheels on e-Bay. He "guarantees" his wheels will fit our S2000 but the offsets are wrong; and he then won't honor neither his own guarantees or return policy.

I got stuck with a set of wheels/tires worth $2,000. I am now disputing the charges with the credit card company. Thankfully, I saved all his emails where he guaranteed fitment, etc.

If I were the owner I wouldnt refund you. You purchased the wheels without doing research obviously. It says the offsets and they will fit on the S, just not well. Technically, they fit.

Hogwash. The title of the auction clearly states: "HONDA S2000 EXCLUSIVE 18 HYPER BLACK WHEEL RIM"

If the wheels aren't going to fit a stock S, then this should be CLEARLY stated by the seller. Otherwise, it's blatant misrepresentation and should be grounds for a full refund.

To the OP, good luck. If the seller will not refund your $$$, you're doing the right thing by filing a charge-back with your credit card company

Whoops. My bad for that. I just briefly looked and didn't see the title that they are supposedly made for the S2000.

Sorry about that. Get your money back.
