Send them back and get your money. Thanks for letting us know about the problem. I won't order from those guys now. Also thinking about KMC's, and will check bolt pattern (how they get it) before I order.

I would already be on my way to UPS with them, there is no way i will believe they havent violated the structural integrity of those wheels. holes into holes? wow, that is just plain BAD

Exactly, this is what it should have looked like, and not that half assed drill job.
