Yeah I received my last two today and they were both the satin black as they should be. I'm not sure what the fourth one would be considered but it's definitely glossier than the other 3. I'm gonna take pictures and message them tonight so that I can hopefully get a 4th matching wheel, because that will bug the shit out of me otherwise.

I got the same setup as you... You'd think they'd hire someone that can actually read the boxes....

Well oddly enough all 4 of my boxes are labeled "flat black", but the one is definitely glossier. It's also missing the black sock thing over the face so I almost wonder if mine got reboxed incorrectly or something.

My boxes were clearly labeled, that's what pisses me off. Then you look at the bottom of the invoice and it has where two different people supposedly checked the order!!

Well I will never order another product from LMR again. I was just told since I bought them on ebay, they will not take the wheels back or offer me a return of any kind. Stating all of the wheels had paint issues. Funny, no where in the ad does it say that. Only says they won't match the 9" wheels...

They tried to tell me the same thing, and I told them that was bullshit and mentioned that nowhere in the eBay ad did it say "You may not get matching wheels", and the ad stated they were Satin, and the wheel in question was in no way satin. Now they've offered to send me a ups label to ship the wheel back and that they'll try to find a matching wheel, but it took some arm twisting on my end to get that.

After threatening putting them on blast on social media they offered me two options. 1. Buy a new wheel at discounted price and when they ship it it'll have a UPS label for the old one. 2. Same thing you said. I'm just worried the next one will be wayyyyy off or damaged and then they won't do a damn thing. Should've figured this would happen. Always a catch somewhere...

Yeah they gave me the first option too but I didn't even consider that considering I'm not in a hurry and the outcome is the same.
I have thought about the possibility of them sending me another one that is wayyy off, but I figure I either a) Keep the mismatched wheel and refinish all of them to match, or b) Take a chance and hope they send me a matching one, and if they don't... Resort back to option A.
I do think they should be saying something on the eBay description about the possibility of finish inconsistencies, instead they just call them satin black and hope for the best.
Even if I have to refinish the wheels, the deal is great, and I love these wheels, so I have no regret, but I certainly won't be running back to LMR for anything any time soon.

I agree 100%. They are completely misrepresenting their product.

Devil's advocate - They are in the Scratch/Dent/Open Box section of their eBay store. Brake dust will be covering mine and they will be just practice/qualifying rims. I also purchased their silver ones for $50 more a pair.

When searching for wheels you don't see the scratch/dent/open box section though.
They made it right with me though. I was waiting it out to give them an answer and I woke up this morning to an email stating they're sending out two more wheels free of charge and to keep all 6.

Yep, same here. I'm pretty happy with it.

I'm thinking about buying two more and having four powdercoated some obnoxious color.

ok I have not been paying attention and I am confused. The first line in the warning in red says that the "paint finish may not match" so is that really the complaint now on the $100/shipped 18 -10 wheel that the paint does not match?!

They altered the ad....

The first line that says "finish may vary from wheel to wheel" was added after the fact. Before all they said was that they were satin and would not match the matte wheels. I think they added that first line after I pointed out to them that nowhere in the description did it warn potential buyers that they may receive two different wheels.

Did you get them balanced? Because I don't see any weights. If that is balanced, who did you have do it? because I really don't want ugly tire weights visible.
