Consumer Description

WHEN I BOUGHT MY VOLVO THE 17 RIMS WERE ALREADY ON THE CAR. I FEEL I WAS NOT SUFFICIENTLY EDUCATED ABOUT THESE WHEELS SO THAT I COULD MAKE N INFORMED CHOICE WHETHER TO KEEP THEM OR NOT. I CURRENTLY HAVE THE 6TH AND 7TH BENT RIM ON MY CAR. I HAVE ALL THE RECEIPTS FROM THE OTHER FIVE RIM REPAIRS IN LESS THAN TWO YEARS. TODAY I ORDERED NEW 16 RIMS COSTING $1,000 AND IT WILL COST ANOTHER $1,000 TO BUY THE NEW TIRES AND HAVE THEM INSTALLED. I HAVE SPENT ALMOST $1200. ON RIM REPAIRS AND REPLACING DAMAGED TIRES. I WANT ALL THAT MONEY BACK IT IS ABSURD TO SPEND $40,000 ON A CAR THAT KEEPS COSTING SO MUCH MONEY. DT
