      18 inch budniks??

      Hey DROCK. Which ones are you looking at getting? I only ask because I have a set of Budnik 18 inch famosas with the fat lip polished that I am looking to maybe unload and go a different direction. Let me know if you are interested. They are about a year old but have been on the road about a total of 5 times for about 150 miles on them. PERFECT CUSTOM OFFSET for first gen camaro with no wait. PM me if you are interested.

      If you need more backspace, call and they can be re-rimmed to a new backspace for a fraction of the cost of new wheel. Plus, we re-polish the wheel to look like new. The turn around time on this process is about 1-2 weeks.
      714-892-1932.

      Our wait time is currently 6-8 weeks. With demand the way it is now, we are currently in the market for two more mills, which will in time hopefully cut the build time down to less then half of the above. Another thing to take into consideration is the popularity of custom widened wheels. With the availability of mini-tubs, and much wider tires, we are doing alot in the way of widened large diameter wheels, which take extra time to build as the outers (or "barrells", or "hoops") are not stocked, or made in those sizes. We then have to custom widen those in house as well.

      Thanks for the compliments. As always, the end product is always our most important concern. Providing the best product possible remains our ultimate goal, even if that means a little longer wait then our compitition temporarily.

      Jon-are there any manufacturers of the rim shells looking into making a 12 or 13 in wide rim shell in the 18,19,20in sizes? That sure would help out the customer and the wheel company.....and save a least 300 or so per wheel
