What kind of response is that?

So they have had a design problem for 4 years, so it's okay?

I bet if they were supplied with a set of wheels that they couldn't put air in or check the pressure, they wouldn't want them on their car either.

Now that you mention it, it looks like the rim..

.. is reversed, i.e. the spokes should be on the other side installed inside the hump where they drilled the valve stem hole.
You guys are correct.
I wish they would just call it a mistake and take them back. What the heck its only one little measley set of wheels to them.

Re: No. They put the hole 3" BEHIND the spokes:/

I searched around and found this 2 piece custom forged wheel with the same valve hole location.

I do not think it is unique to Iforged.
