Default u changed manufactures

You guys changed manufactures (again) on your wheels? I can tell they look different. Who was the manufacture that you started with. Some of us need replacment wheels? By the way the first ones you started selling were the best looking. Those new ones look like butt.

No they dont !! This is the 3rd time they changed the wheels. They have different offsets and the dishes are different sizes. I ordered a replacment wheel (17x9) bullit and the dish and offset where wrong. What really pisses me off is they dont tell you on there site and they make you pay to return it.

Hmm, we only switched manufacturer's once, and that was about 3 years ago. Except for switching to the new Center Cap, nothing has changed on our 17x9 Bullitt Wheels in the 3 years since we originally switched manufacturers. Are you sure you do not have wheels from our original manufacturer or wheels from a competitor? - Nick

PS - We get our new center caps from a company called StackRacing...hence the SR. Personally I like them better then the M-Fire caps.

I think EVERYONE will agree to that. Why the hell don't you guys just make an AM center cap?

Hehe. Hmm...dun know. Our logo might not look too good on a centercap cause it would be really skinny and squished. A fancy AM might not look too shabby, but could be confused with WV when upside down, or some sorta weird zig-zag when sideways LOL.

Our original wheels were made by Wheel Replicas, you should be able to find a replacement through them. Our current and future wheel models are all manufactured for us by Verde who we switched to 3 years ago. This was the one and only time we switched wheel manufacturers, and hopefully the only time period if we can help it.
