Re: Good place to buy rims

If you buy Cragars from Summit, make sure you inspect and test them for out of roundness ASAP. Took 8 boxes from Summit to get me 4 straight, no curbed damaged rims....Damn Shame. One of the boxes that was labeled 5x5, 3.-- Center Bore had a 5x5.5 with a huge center bore (most likely Ford Pattern) wheel packed in it. Summit had to deal with the returns and even overnighted a rim. I would go local just so if there is problems with the stuff, they can get it fixed in person. I went to a tire shop on the last rim I got that was warped and they wrote up a work order saying they would not use the rim because of how much it was out of round. Quality control is a lost art....
