Just wanted to give an "attaboy" to these guys....great customer service!

I was on my 10th week (initally it was 4-6 weeks) of waiting for my Amercan Racing Wheels that are actually mostly made in China when I just thought to myself this was BS! I had talked to Dave at Newstalgia a number of times to try and get an idea when I might see these things, he was sincerely apologetic and said he couldn't get a straight answer from American. Dave had offered a number of times to give me a refund or change my order, but I decided to try and be patient cuz those where the wheels I wanted......my patience ran out!

Dave switched my order over to Billet Specialties Vintecs (which I've always loved anyway) and I should see em in 3 weeks or so....could've had 17's in a week, but I had already found the tire sizes I wanted in 18's.

The best part is Dave ate a little profit and basically switched me over to the billets at no cost increase for the inconvenience (which wasn't his fault).

The wheel and tire business is a tough business to be in and these guys are a "shining star" in my opinion and just wanted to pass it along.

I also got my wheels from Newstalgia (which happens to be less than 30 min from my house) great guys. As far as American Racing goes.........

Oh well!

Oh Yes......back in the "good ole days"!

SeeTen.....I remember your post quite awhile back as to your satisfaction with them...that was one of the reasons I called them.

They also have a nice website, free mounting and balancing, shipping, and no tax.......quite a savings for me!
