It's pretty easy...

Step #1: Pick up box
Step #2: Drop/throw box on it's side.

I used to do all the imports for several major wheel manufactorers and damage like this is more comman than you would think.

Basically comes down to sh*t packaging from the manufacturer.. many wheel companies actually put a polystyrene ring around the lip to protect it now.

I had 2 rims go missing during shipment last year. Insurance FTW. I have also had rims repair by Alliance. Excellent work.

Sweet thanks a bunch for the replies fellas, quality work is what I want over cost cause its not often I splash cash on nice rims, and this is the first set ive had shipped interstate. What a cock up this was too...

Anyway looks like Ill give Allaince a ring, spoke to the seller he reckons we might be able to get the courier to compensate... I mean look at the box FFS, its clearly their fault. They packed the wheels!

Cheers, Hayden

Hey mate, do you mind letting me know what this sort of work set you back? Just want something to go off

welding of cracks and repair of gutter rash on all four rims was $500, paint was extra $300 from memory. so $800 all up, the rims look brand new, couldnt even tell they were repaired. no cracks have reappeared either. if i can find the pics ill show you.

here you go man, before:







after:

Wow, thats mint

Just took them out of the boxes again, seems so much worse now!
Definatly looking forward to getting it fixed. Thanks for the pics mate, much appreciated.
