Re: anyone on here running these wheels?
I just got a set of 18's and 20's about 2 weeks ago. I got the chrome ones and am impressed with the quality of the chrome. Couldn't be happier with the wheels themselves. Their Customer service leaves a lot to be desired though!!! You can see them in my avator.

Re: anyone on here running these wheels?
I sent them an e-mail a month ago, no reply. I want to modify a set of 18/20s.

Re: anyone on here running these wheels?
Best way to get ahold of them is to call. They are a mom-n-pop outfit who, as far as I can tell, gets Boyd's old tooling when he's done with it.
Don't believe me? Check out their center caps. and the 'Rodder5'. Looks curiously like a Magneato eh? Not a bash by any means. Just try to find a 20", reverse offset, deep dish, smooth lip wheel with hidden valve stems cheaper anywhere. It ain't gonna happen. I spoke with them and they said to expect a 1 month lead time on 20x10s. I can deal with that for half price savings. The rims look great in pics, but personal reviews are hard to come by. Maybe svgould can enlighten us?

Re: anyone on here running these wheels?
If the quality is good, I would buy a set.

Re: anyone on here running these wheels?
Hi,
Front 18X8 4.5 inches backspacing 255/55/18 falkens Rear 18x20 5.25 backspacing 275/55/20 falkens I picked these wheels over the TT2’s simply because of price. The wheels themselves look really good. No pitting or whatever in the chrome and other than these not having a lip they look identical to the TT2’s. I had to use a low profile valve stems ($20 for the set) to clear the brake rotor (the valve mounts towards the center of the wheels rather than towards the outside like most wheels. This is for looks I think, because you can barely notice the valve stems at all). The wheels are made in China......but what isn't?? If I had to do it over again, I would still go with the Coy’s just for the price. Enjoy, Shane

Re: anyone on here running these wheels?
Those wheels look nice & the prices are decent but they don't offer much (any?) selection when it comes to backspacing.
