I recently purchased a set of Super Advan V.2's from Rice Hata and it has been the best non-vendor transaction i've had, and gives the best vendors a run for the money (but BHR gives free stickers).

The communication -

Is key with anyone. Rob kept with me every step of the way. The forum, e-mail, phone, and text. Every step of the way we both informed each other of the steps and sent pictures... I feel i need to say that the pictures weren't dirty for some reason.

The sale -

This guy stole his own wheels and sold them to me. I lucked into a bad *** deal. Great price. Exchange went smooth.

The shipping -

The timing sucked. It was memorial day weekend so I had to wait. Luckily, I'm pretty patient, and all worked out well. Now I just have to wait until monday to slap in the tpms sensors.

The packaging -

These things were packed safer that Mother Teresa's body. Packed better and more protected that wheels i've purchased from a vendor. No pink peanuts either (I'm looking at you CRH).

On to the good stuff. The wheels.

Disclaimer: These wheels are loved or hated, so here's your disclaimer...

*For those of you that are a bit slow, the "stolen" part was a metaphor.

 

Thanks for the compliments Dave.

Guys- Dave is a stand up (and extremely patient) guy and I wouldn't hesitate to sell him another set of Super Advans in the future.

Now I know what to do to be the best--send stickers of pink peanuts and I'll be a shoe in for the crown.

 

We're going to start using orange bubble wrap. Top that! lol

Anyway glad to see you got some wheels you like Dave. And without any hassles.

 

You can't top the big bubble wrap. 4th most satisfying feeling in the world is popping those bastards. I was seriously considering the same wheels you had, but when i saw this opportunity, i marked it off my bucket list.

I still have one hassle to deal with once I start getting performance parts... You know what I'm talking about.

... Not to mention as soon as I order a new AP and I have it in hand, Im ordering a fuel pump upgrade, ignition, intake, midpipe, cat back and a shirt all at once from some butcherous (is that a word?) retarded stogie smokin' hack/curmudgeons from somewhere out west. I actually think its a part of Mexico now. Well, after they release some of those previously mentioned mods. I told this to the bald one already, but he tried to mail me candy in exchange for some bare chested pics of myself... I think his name was Carlos, now that I think of it. I told him "no dice."

 

Sounds like your dealing with the right people.

 

You know it.

 

Dave I think you should post up the pics. The haters will definitely swarm this thread.
