The custom wheels I had made took a year...and they are crap.

Both of the front wheels are so out of round without tires the hunter says "replace rims." And the air filler is behind the tire center inside the freaking wheel? They are 2 piece wheels I wanted re-barreled to get better offsets. They couldn't find any 2 piece barrels so they made some out of 3 piece barrel halves. On the fronts they didn't weld the halfs together either square or round. The idiot butt hole that made them told me they were within spec and I could just add wheel weights. You can't fix rims that are out of round with weights, the jerk.

If I want those centers I will have to have them re-barrelled again. Or will have to have the original barrels fixed (some of the bolt holes are stripped) and sell them for whatever I can get out of them.
