Custom built wheels
« on: Nov 14, 2005, 09:09:09 PM »
I am working on a project for some dude that has more money then brains and he wants a set of custom alum wheels made. I have already talked to Boyd and Foose. They only sell what the already make and dont want to do anything custom unless they are building the car. So I am looking for any info on a shop that would custom build a set of wheels. Goudy Racing wheels origanally had the order, they built my wheels but they jerked this gut around for almost 4 month before they told him they were just getting started on them. So he canceled the order.

If the "dude" is paying you on the project, you better hope his limited brain capacity prevents him from reading this site. ::)

well the one that comes to mind for me is stazworks.  I can't remember their web site but I will try to find some more info for you.  From what I understand he can do anything you are wanting they they are double beedlocked wheels.  He CAD's out the design you want and machines them from there.

He is paying me and I have told him he to leave the build to me. If he doesnt like what he reads or hears from me he can have it built by someone else. He came to me.

I don't think so. Only steel as far as I know.

Not bashing just having fun.  :wall: And he does read this board to keep up on the builds. I would love to have more money than brains. Finally ordered wheels from Boyd, about a week ago rears 20x15  :bling: and fronts 20x8 1/2  :bling: . They should be done being machined in two weeks. As soon as I get them I will post some picks.

I would Call Walker Evans Racing and have him build you a set of his aluminum beadlock wheels.
