Re: Boss 338 Wheels **GROUP BUY**

I would also be interested when the -3 revision of the 18" grey is retooled. If you are able to work something out later on them that would be great.

If you don't mind the old (-2) revision, apparently those are in stock and ready to ship. It's the revised wheels that aren't out yet in black (or anything except grey 20s, for that matter).

Re: Boss 338 Wheels **GROUP BUY**

the -2 old ones only fit with 1" rotors and the new wheels fit these trucks the way they are with the 1.25" rotors or you buy the wheels and run spacers up front to make them fit

Re: Boss 338 Wheels **GROUP BUY**

ok, after 2 hours at eagle alloys today. I have confirmation that 4 sets have already shipped between Mar 31-today. 6 sets are waiting to be filled and should ship by early next week. And the rest of the orders are currently being filled.

Please be patient guys, eagle is working really hard to locate these wheels for you guys. I've tapped out most of the warehouses in the area on their 338 stock on hand. My sales rep at eagle has been working EXTREMELY hard to fill every ones order and is even pulling wheels scheduled to ship to different warehouses off the trucks before they go out to make sure you guys are taken care of.

So with that said, what's available right now will be shipped right now. I will update your guys orders as I get confirmation from eagle that they have gone out. Please don't email me or call me asking if your wheels went out yet. You will be emailed as soon as I get confirmation from them that they have shipped, I promise.

A few of these wheels are back ordered as you guys know (chrome most specifically) and those orders are being worked on and filled as soon as they have a set in their system. I have been told that some chrome 20's have already been going through the warehouses, so the next sets they see come in are going to be put aside for those who ordered them. Lead time on some of these wheels can be up to 60 days.

I do need to contact a few of you guys who wanted 18" rims that haven't clarified yet what they want to do in regards to fitment.

-2 revision is the only version out for 18's at the moment, so they won't fit your 1.25" rotors without spacers.

A few of you guys have upgraded to 20's, a few have said just ship them anyways, and a few of you wanted to cancel.

I will be contacting those I have not heard from individually to find out what you want to do with your order.

Aside from that, let me know if you have any problems with your wheels when you receive them, and I'm glad I was able to hook you guys up!

I'm not worried about being unique. Good-looking wheels like these are awesome even if they're on every car and truck on the block. Really, there's nothing too unique about most five-spoke rims. I just love 'em for what they are -- beautiful and made in USA!

That's pretty awesome. Always amazes me the power this board has to make things happen. I also want to say thank you to sublvr72 and brossow. I hope you made something off of this for your troubles. I have tt2's on my blazer so I guess I like not being unique.
