Been in the industry, and I know a countless number of these "exclusive" companies are using the same wheels, that come from China. But of course, I cant always speak for everyone. :thumb:

I can even tell you the name of the company via pm if you want.

Don't get me wrong, I wouldn't be surprised in the least if they were made in China. I'm just saying who can tell by looking at a picture, it's not like the profiles change dramatically between companies except for Bullseye of course.

He said it takes 5 days from the time I pay to when it ships. And I just looked online at a chinese manafacturer/supplier of billet wheels. Says delivery within 7 days...so "5 days" for "him" to "make the wheel" then a few days shipping...comes out to about 7 days:roflmao:

Either way, im not to worried about it. If the wheel looks like garbage then I wont run it. If it looks good then ill run it. Ive got nothing bad to say about the guy. He's done me right so far.

I have no reason to believe they are made in china. But I wouldn't be supreme if he was simply supplying specs to a local machine shop and having them do the CNC work.

We had a few email mis-communications so my wheel got pushed to the end of the line, said I should see it this week tho.

Final decision on wheel profile is 6+6 blade, extended tip, extended height. It should perform pretty good and sound like a beast.

Well, still no billet wheel. This blows! He told me 5-7 days after I pay, I would have the wheel. I paid July 21st. He said it will be another week before the machine shop will do it because of some paypal **** up that could have been avoided. I needed the wheel like last week...hence why I ordered it when I did. This crap always happens to me.
