A former ZR-1'r and buddy of mine had custom Foose wheels on his yellow '93. One of the rears had a wobble that wouldn't balance out and it drove him nuts. He had nothing but trouble trying to get Foose to pony up on the repair even though the wobble was there when the wheel was first installed. As I recall it had to be replaced not repaired.
Sadly it seems that custom wheels might be more trouble/expense than they're worth.

If it were me I'd put back on the stockers and send the HRE's back to them with a bill and nice letter from my lawyer.

One would almost think that the custom wheel industry and the insurance industry were related considering how much grief one goes through dealing with either with them.

I've been really happy with the CCWs

Scott sold me a beautiful set and they look great on the car

I still think the fikse look better, but the nosebleed price and hassle have kept me away Polishing the ccws isn't much fun!!

Check out my Facebook page,HRE WILZ SUK. I almost went with Fikse. Speaking of Fikse,I don't think they will be around for much longer.
