Their headquarters are located in Decatur, Alabama ... only about 20 miles from me. Lots of guys around here have them because they are a "local" company. Very nice looking wheels too ... especially at those prices.

I have a set of Vision 15 x ?, 6 lug, on my '67. I presently have BFG P275/60R-15s mounted on 'em now. I like 'em. I have no complaints.
P.S. I'll be getting rid of them before long when I shift the '67 over to 5-lug hubs and front discs. They'll go on the market then. I'll be looking for a set of truck rallye wheels at that time. Trade anyone?

i have some from vision. the only thing i didnt like about them is that the clear coat on them is kind of cheap and if you use wheel cleaner it takes it off. eventually i'll get something else but for now they're fine. they don't make my style anymore. you can get them through les schwab tire stores.

I emailed them about a catalog. I cant understand why there has to be such a jump in price from 17 to 20 inch wheels? Still cheap though. I think Ill have to buy from them. Are there any dealers in the north Texas area that anyone knows of?

Truckstr: those are nice wheels i would try putting them on the parts board for sale or trade
pat: i dont know any dealers at all was thinking about asking them if they needed one..but i was quoted $40 shipping on 4 wheels from Alabama to Pa..didnt think that was bad at all..damn near pay that in taxes if you bought in your own state

Forty bucks shipping does seem cheap for four big wheels. Im confused, I dont know anything about taxes. If Im getting you right mooneyes, your saying I can buy wheels from them, out of state, and not pay taxes?
