Re: Those Shopping for Wheels...

Got it yesterday and spent most of the night doing comparos. They make it hard but are some of the pics wrong? I felt like I say a couple of doubles. Like the CenterLine rim and then seeing it again called something else and in a larger size...WTF

I guess thats part of running a mag. It is still nice to know whats out there and the weight of the rims. I hope there was accuracy in the info[img]/w3timages/icons/wink.gif[/img]

Re: Those Shopping for Wheels...

The information may be accurate. From what I was told at discount tire, some of the larger wheel companies repackage their wheels with different brand names so they can appeal to both markets. The people who want the best deal, and the people who want the brand name.

Re: Those Shopping for Wheels...

there are always a few flip flops of ads...we recently had that happen in a similar ad. I can assure you the wheels you see in there with our web address at the bottom are all correct this time, I proofed them
