budnik wheels

[400firebird]

Has anyone ordered any wheels from budnik lately ive been waiting for 6 weeks and still no arival cant wait for the 18x12s

[ProdigyCustoms]

Budnik is a 8 to 10 week build. We tell our customers up front about that. Still a great wheel, but you will wait.

[STROKED]

Long wait for sure. What kind of Budniks did you order? I like there wheels thinking of getting some for my 69 Firebird. Its hard picking out wheels i keep changing my mind.

[400firebird]

I agree with you on that i changed my mind almost daily and im still wondering if i should of went with a different wheel I ended up ordering the M5 in a polished outer with brushed centers in a 18x8 and 18x12 i figure i can always polish if i dont like them.

[STROKED]

Nice, the M5's look sweet good choice.

M5


I'm stuck trying to figure out if i want "GTX or Spark"

I had to wait 12 weeks but i love them. Shotguns 20x10 polished with brushed centers.

I have a set of GTX's for an upcoming article -- awesome looking wheel.

Hell,8-10 weeks is nothing in the custom wheel world,I won't throw anyone under the bus (hint,hint) but I've waited 3 months before and the wheels still weren't done in the correct finish and the center bore was drilled too small.

What kind of car are they going on?
Where will i be able to see this vehicle?

I might be going with one of those wheels in the future. im thinking of 18X12 with 335/30 18 tire on rear and 18X8 front.

[400firebird]

They will be going on a 69 firebird im working on the mini tub right now i want to finish shorting the rear end but i want to mock everthing up rather than guesing on the measurement. Ill post some pics when its all done.

[STROKED]

What all has to be done to fit 18X12 besides mini tub

[ProdigyCustoms]

You will need a offset spring shakle kit if you run leaf springs, or a aftermarket rear suspension that is designed for mini tubs and big tires

If you were talking about the Boyd wheels you ordered i'll gladly throw them under the bus for you. I once waited 6 months and finally had to cancel an order from them.

No...they weren't Boyd's but they do start with a "B"...:bsjerk:

[old66tiger]

The GTX or the Spark is sweet. I wanted a set of them until I priced them out. OUCH! But sweet.

[woodbeecat]

Looking for a alternative to butnicks I too had a hard choice picking a set of wheels I ended up with the fiske fm5s still 6 week delivery.

[ProdigyCustoms]

Woodbeecat, Fikse appears to be gone, no one can reach them for the ast few weeks. Might want to make another wheel decision.

[STROKED]

So Fiske is out of business? That's sad i love there FM5's one of the nicest wheel and affordable.

[ProdigyCustoms]

Forgeline has hidden hardware available on all wheels, so you might want to go look around over there stroked.

It took 5 months to get mine. I also had them sent out to get chromed also. They look great and were worth the wait.
