Hey all -

I am going to buy some custom wheels on Monday. The Wheels of Steel looks like a pretty good deal, but I am wondering if anyone has ever done US Wheels thru Summit? I can save some money, but I will have to paint tghem (minor PITA).

I talked to US WHeel, and they are super helpful. My understanding is I have to get the right person on the line at Summit or they will be clueless.

Anyone on the board ever do it? Delivery time? Mistakes etc??? Did you have them drop shipped? extra freight charges etc?


And yes BTW I did do a search :flipoff2:

TIA

Jim

Yes i got custom wheels thru summit they were 8 lug 2.5 bs 15x10s. I called us wheel first they gave me a part # to give summit then summit put it in therer computer.It only took a week and there was no problems drop shipped from us wheel.
I have the part # at my shop i can get it mon pm me if your interested.

Don't need 8 lug, but if you know who handled your ordeer at Summit that might help.

How much did they ding you for the drop ship?

I just got off the phone with summit checking my part # and sales man thesales man was Harry ext.6731 the part# was usw-70-15x10-cust they said if you want a custom back space check with us wheel first and see if they make and if there parts are avalable then call back summit with your order.mine took about a week for everything. and were around the same price as a noncustom wheel(not much more but dont remember exactly).
I painted mine with rustoleum hammer tough paint and just finnished mounting my 42s on them.

hope this helps

Faxed an order in with a request for someone to call me.... Still waiting. I'll report back when they call.

Its been 24 hours, and the :clown: at Summit haven't gotten back to me.....

Same outcome, different approach:

My experience w/these guys was smooth. They just pick 'em up at the US Wheel plant and ship to you.
