  2. If you would prefer not to pay a core deposit, you will ship the damaged wheel(s) to us first, we will then ship out the replacement when your wheel(s) has arrived.
  3. YOU are responsible for the cost of shipping the wheel to us.  We will pay return shipping to you. We would be happy to send shipping labels at our published shipping price so you can take advantage of our discounted shipping rates.  YOU will still be billed for this cost.
