Re: Al's 71C10 Rebuild

Too bad there isnt a big Goodguys show or something going on in your area soon.
That can usually speed up a wheel company if you tell them you are going or debuting there.

Intro got a set to me a little faster one time for that reason.

That would be cool if they were coming this way. I have been told by the vendor that they usually over estimate on time to give them selves some leadway in case of complications.




On another note my tires arrived today one more thing off the checklist....

You will LOVE those tires; just saying.

I ordered mine through a local 4x shop and they blew away everyone else's prices.
