This group buy is only for Boss 338 wheels in the sizes listed in the first post. If you don't mind them not matching your 304s, you can get two chrome 338s in 20x8.5 for $450 + shipping, but be aware they're backordered without a definite ETA.

Again, so what? On eBay you can buy staggered 18s for $639 shipped to your door. Cost through this group buy was $490 for a set of staggered 18s plus shipping. Your "family friend" is making a LOT of money off of you, not doing you a favor.

Perhaps not coincidentally, $661 is $639 + 3.5% (typical credit card processing fee). Maybe this "friend" is just buying 'em off eBay and charging you the same price plus the CC fee.

Re: Boss 338 Wheels **GROUP BUY**

I hope the everyone here has given Brossow a nod of appreciation for the work that was done for this offer, it beats anything out there on the net and he certainly didnt have to put it all together. It seems to me he has gotten more grief than gratitude.

Thank you Brossow.

You could buy them, but I don't think they'd fit on the front. Price for (4) 20x10 would be $980 in chrome or $625 in grey or black.

I'm watching also.

I may get in line for another set of grey 20's.
I'm not doing anything,... until I see a set bolted on the 1.25" rotors.

Hey Guys,

Mine will be in my hands on the 24th and I will do a writeup with pics while fitting them on the truck the same day.

If someone else gets theirs before me please do the same, the suspense is killing me

Re: Boss 338 Wheels **GROUP BUY**

I'm interested in buying a set, but would like to know if they ever corrected the fitment problem with the bearing hub?

That was the entire purpose of the revision that we've all been waiting for. Heaven help us (and AEW!) if it's still not right!

From AEW's blog (courtesy of HarrolLS1):

The first release will be the in the 20 inch sizes. 18 inch parts should not be too far behind. For those loyal customers of the American eagle wheel lines, we thank you for your patients’ and hope that you will enjoy the Boss 338s for many years to come. Thank you for Buying American Eagle, Thank you for buying American.
