Rally's Sold / Center Caps Ordered - The 1947 - Present Chevrolet & GMC Truck Message Board Network

LUV2XCLR8 · 08-31-2007, 05:13 PM

Man I am stoked, ordered my center caps today (Already had the rings
and see the "Heartbroken" thread for the rims) They will be coming in a
about a week or so. Looks like the wheels might be mounted real soon.

Same set-up as one pictured* in linky > Wheels, Rings, and Center Caps

*Only differance is my Rings and Center Caps are the Stainless Steel

Just gotta meet Asa at Woody's for wheel locks and grab some brand
new stock accorn nuts from the local Napa store and I'm in buisness.

Hopefully sometime next month I will get a replacement wheel ordered.

(Btw I am ordering through Summit since WV won't work with me at all)

NTR72GMC · 08-31-2007, 05:26 PM

Will They Give You A Deal On The New Wheel?

LUV2XCLR8 · 08-31-2007, 05:47 PM

Nope, I e-mailed them, one week later I e-mailed them again, yet another
week went by and I e-mailed them again (Was a lil rude the 3rd time) and
they said they were a small co and didn't have time to address my e-mail
and that I was impatient and should loose there number. JMHO but in this
day and age the internet is a lifeline and I think they disconnected theirs.

Who told you that? Wheel Vintiques?

LUV2XCLR8 · 08-31-2007, 05:55 PM

The part about loosing their number? YES

NTR72GMC · 08-31-2007, 07:52 PM

Wow Thats Some Great Customer Service

When the new one comes in, box the warped one back up and send it back! In the long run it's wheel vintiques that's going to eat it. We all know it came out of the box that way and you weren't out drunk doing donuts and curbed it. You never even bolted in on the Jimmy did you? I'm headed to the building now to get your locks!

I had a problem with some drag pipes on my Harley that were jigged wrong.They were made by Cycle Shack and sold by Drag Specialties.Drag tossed us to Cycle Shack where we got the run around.In the end it`s like this:The maker sells parts to the distributor for wholesale.The distributor sells parts to dealers.All the distributor does is resell for a profit and that`s where the dealer`s money goes.It`s between the dealer and distributor who should be the customer service.The maker concentrates on making while the distributor/dealers concentrate on selling.The only exception would be buying direct from manufacturer.Once they sell to public...hello customer service.

NTR72GMC · 08-31-2007, 10:29 PM

Makes you feel all warm inside.

LUV2XCLR8 · 09-01-2007, 04:44 AM

Never bolted up to the truck, I guess if I had been more patient they might
have been forgiving

I guess me being rude after 3 weeks was my fault.

smbrouss70 · 09-01-2007, 11:55 PM

Wow! Let me get out my black-list... #134. Wheel Vintiques

Well 3 out of 4 are installed, waiting on the caps here, found yet another
issue. I'm not sure the caps will fit on the front because of the rotor hub.
Does anyone know if they make short dust caps for the bearing centers?

see ten · 09-03-2007, 08:55 AM

Yep,it's called a hammer! Seriously, That's what Centerline told Brian about the caps on his new wheels.

LUV2XCLR8 · 09-03-2007, 11:23 AM

Seriously? just flatten them? Doesn't anyone make a shorter one? If I have
to hammer them I will, Thanks to Ted that will be not a modding problem

Well there Hammered, the rotor caps that is, my caps arrived today, since
I only have 3 out of 4 wheels on the Blammy this is the best pic I can get
you all right now. A lil before and after
