(HRE) wheel refinishing

Well, i haven't had the best service from HRE directly. Kind of a joke actually since the 540s...
retail at $950 each. You'd think they would be all over fixing them. It was quite a circle jerk trying to figure out why it was taking sooo long and then to add insult to injury, the rim comes back with the wrong size lip!
A re-do should take no more than 2-3 days ANYWHERE.
Wheels America by me hold the 2 and 3 piece rims for an extra day or two to make sure they were sealed properly. My first re-do had a leaking bolt - - apparently they didn't allow enough time for the silicone to seal before the tire was mounted and pressurized.

Honestly, I'd never pick these wheels for the car. But they came on it when I bought it.
I'd rather have some Work W-ITS like Anthony's. THOSE are hot. Now if I could find someone to buy those for me and trade straight across!!HAHA. I'm going to try this place in Sac. tomorrow and see what they say. Gotta take a wheel over and show them. It sucks for me cuz the closest Wheels America is in SF and only open M-F. Well...I work those days 2hrs away. Yippie!

Or you can come down to my house Sat. for our mini GTG and you can take one back with you! See
if they'll do it or not! ;-) Actually I MAY be down in SJ on Sunday to pick up the bumpers to the cizzar.

That's just a LITTLE out of the way! Ok, going home now...gotta go do:
1. Fuel Filter
2. Rear Diff Fluid
3. Phenolics
4. Spider Hose
Start with that tonight...see what else I can do. Maybe wire up the V1 also.
