I wanna run cr rims with blackwall tires and bullet centers on my 62 galaxie.Who should i check out on the Hamb alliance. I hear bad things about Stockton wheels.
The front rims on my car are from Ralley America and they are sweet. I just ordered a pair for the rear. It wasn't a tuff decision based on how nice the fronts are. Todd
again for wheelkid...got my cones and bullet lugs from him. if you get them from Wheel Vintiques do not expect any hubcaps to fit them, and do not expect them to do anything about it...
Wheelkid for sure. Just don't be in a hurry for them, I tried to order a pair for my Ranchero, he warned me it could take 2/3 months due to the chromer taking so long, something out of his control.
Call Joe @ Wheel Vintiques (Fresno, Ca). They're actually called O.E. Chrome from there. I've bought over 10 sets, and I like them a lot.
Ive been watching this too, because Im ready to commit to some chrome. I dont want to sound cheap here, but have the prices of chrome OE wheels gone up? I just feel like I used to see sets of four being sold for 250-300 I mean they were used, but in great shape. Or am I just being a cheap skate?
I got mine from Bear Metal Kustoms. Excellent customer service and the wheels were at my doorstep QUICK. http://www.earlywheel.com/
i gotta give a thumbs up to stockton wheel on this one.i had a set on my 51 before it became a g***er and the quality was outstanding. on others the chrome was a little light in the centers...not good if you're running capless.
I agree with the last post if you arent planning on running hub caps. My Stocktons look br***y in the middle and I sent the rears back. They told me they polished the centers and what I really wanted was to get them rechromed. I ate the shipping and they looked the same when I got them back. They said they would pay the shipping but I am still waiting 3yrs later. Enough on that rant because there is a really long post on here with Stockton wheel horror stories.
Exk Erickson Extreme Kustoms here on the HAMB will make you set in any lug pattern and backspacing for about $70.00 per wheel. He can make you a kustom set to clear a 12 inch brake rotor if need be.
