True design wheels delivers

For those who sent me their icky scuffed up 16s, here is what Jim at True Design wheels turned them into! (17s that are deep deep deep!)

(Jim was not impressed with the wheel caps as a starting point so I told him to ignore them and I would replace them with better once that I have).

Very happy with the service. Jim was Very professional and kept me up to date and lines of communication open. I wish every vendor i have ever dealt with took their business as seriously and treated their customers as well as he has.

Mine started off as 6". He can start with 7s also.

The one in the picture is a 10". The front face is 5.5 inches deep as per my spec.
Everyone taks about Ets, but thats just technical stuff. This is the part that really matters


BTW, (he worked with me to figure out the ideal size based on the car dimensions that I gave him. I am rescuing an RSR project that had flares installed incorrectly and we lost some of the original width otherwise i would have gone 11s)

He also does a variety of finishes but this is the one I chose based on the look that i wanted, the cost, and the ease of maintenance.

I first saw these on Jeremy's blue car and loved them, so had my own made.
