Finish Line Wheels

I recently ordered a pair of style 87 alloy (20x9.5)...ordered Friday Morning and received my receipt by email, almost immediately. Haven't heard anything regarding tracking # and there's no answer on their main line. I've done some research online for buyer and user experiences, resulting in a near-split of positive and negative.

I'm aware that some here have ordered from Finish Line...please post your experience, good or bad.

TIA

No experiences with Finish Line Wheels?

Very well then...mine came in as i was about to head out on a road trip so i didn't get a chance to inspect. When i return to NYC i'll have my mod shop inspect and will post results as a heads-up to any future Finish Line buyers.

I was just looking to post a question about the style 87 rims and then found this, thought it might fit without having to start a new post. if its too far off subject please move to a new post. I have the style 87's in a stagard config and went through the car wash and it blew BOTH the rear roundels off I found this:

Which gives the part number for the roundel (I think) but wanted to ask best way to order it besides going to dealer? Thanks for any help

So the wheels were mounted and balanced today without issue. Finish Line Wheels gets a (for now). Initial feel during city driving felt normal...i'll circle back on highway feedback after snowboarding road trip this weekend.
