Re: Long Project: Orange Julius
I was thinking that as well, but I cant get the stepped lips in anything bigger than a 20"... Think I should say screw it to the stepped lips and go rolled?

Re: Long Project: Orange Julius
I don't think I know what a stepped looks like...can't seem to find it on their website either, but I do like the rolled look posted by triologyz28!

Re: Long Project: Orange Julius
Wow, Im sorry that I missed this post. No updates on the interior. I have a real good idea of the way it will be finished, but I need to get the chassis changes and engine installed first.

Re: Long Project: Orange Julius
Not exactly the wheel Im getting, but that is Intros stepped lip. I though that would give the wheels a cool retro look, but also being a new and more modern design

Re: Long Project: Orange Julius
Yup! it sure does man... Im really pissed that he did it to me while Im overseas. If the other member wouldnt have notified me of this, I wouldnt have known in time to bring up a dispute and would have been totally screwed.

Re: Long Project: Orange Julius
That sucks about the wheels. I prefer the rolled lip on wheels unless they are TT2's which just look right with stepped lips.

Re: Long Project: Orange Julius
You are right about that... TT2s are a timeless classic wheel so that look fits it. That might not look as good on these wheels. Definately something to think about

Re: Long Project: Orange Julius
That sucks about your wheels. The first wheels I ordered and PAID FOR were from Centerline. 20/22....they said, 6-8 weeks to my house.
6 weeks goes by, I call for a update....they tell me, we have your 20's but your 22's will be built next week. 3 more weeks and youll have them. Im a little disappointed but Im still working on the truck..whatever... 3 weeks goes by, I call for another update....they tell me, we have your 22's but your 20's are being built next week.....I was like, woooooo, 3 weeks ago my 20's were done and my 22's were being built. He looks into it and says, yeah it looks like someone sold them since you were still waiting on the 22's. He informed me that they built 20s one week and 22s the next....back and forth. So it'll be another 3 weeks...now Im kinda pissed...but I still have time. 3 weeks goes by, guess what he said....YEP!! Your 20's are ready but your 22's will be built next week. I said, no they wont!! REFUND MY DAMN MONEY!!! He tried to argue for a minute, I just said refund or Ill just dispute it...regardless Im getting my money BACK! I just couldnt believe they withdrew the funds and still jerked me around.. Now I've ordered Racelines.....much nicer wheel IMO. Val (sales) put a rush on them after I told her my last experience...they SHOULD be done Mid April and I dont get home till Mid/Late May.....so hopefully theyll be done.....but your right the next 6 weeks is gonna be the longest of my life. Well the next 9 weeks will because that's how much longer I have here in Afghani-suck!! |
