• The Automotive Works provides extensive wheel/tire specifications (i.e. offset, hub bore, bolt pattern, back spacing, tire size, etc...). The information in our auctions is accurate and gives customers the opportunity to research our products prior to purchase.
• Fitment is ultimately the responsibility of the buyer. The Automotive Works can provide fitment guidance, but there are certain factors such as aftermarket equipment, large brake systems and other factors we cannot foresee or have not been made aware of by the customer, which may affect fitment on your vehicle. The customer ultimately knows their vehicle history best so for this reason fitment is ultimately the responsibility of the customer.
• The Automotive Works suggest customers take into account brake caliper clearance, aftermarket modifications, vehicle ride height, vehicle age/condition, etc… before purchasing.
• Professional installation is HIGHLY recommended. The Automotive Works is not responsible for any charges related to service or installation. The customer is responsible for choosing a reputable installer in their area. The Automotive Works is not responsible for any damage to vehicle or products sold due to improper installation. It is the responsibility of the customer to have installation done by a reputable and skilled installer. Any vehicle damage claims due to improper installation must be made with installers!
