Policies – Wheels tire sales terms and conditions

Policies for Steven Goss Wheels and Tires, Inc. “Take-off” Facts Wheels and tires are not perfect? Take-offs are “new” wheels and tires that are removed when a dealer or customer upgrades his car to aftermarket wheels. Most vehicles stay on dealer lots for months before being sold.  They are washed two to three times a week, leaving water spots and/or scratches from cleaning rags. As take-offs go, if you can’t see it in a picture, it is considered perfect, just as you would not see imperfections when looking at your wheels from three feet away. Other scratches to wheels come from dealer personnel or accessory shops removing the wheels, and leaving the caps upside down on the ground before putting them in a bag with the lug nuts, or removing wheel weights to dismount the tires when removing the sensors. Stacking wheels and tires face up also creates a potential for scratches when the top wheel is put in a vertical position to show a potential customer, the tires having picked up dust and dirt. Used wheels are always sold with “light dings and scratches” mentioned in the ad for the same reason, but amplified by months of use. We do our best to highlight small visible damage, but surface nicks and scratches are normal when buying used items. Please keep in mind, we buy all these items “as is” from dealerships and wheel stores, and unfortunately pass along the imperfections created along the way to the end buyer. This gives you the opportunity to buy these for a fraction of the cost of buying them from a dealership.  We do all in our power to describe and photograph all items as best we can, and ask for a chance to solve any problem that might have slipped through our quality control inspection, prior to leaving feedback or making upset phone calls or emails. Thank you for your business, please send us your referrals!
