I supplied the 4 wheels and dropped
them off and picked them up. no shipping charge.
Call him and discuss what you want for a price.
mine were $600 bucks for the pair. I think that
was a good price.He has been doing wheels for
about 40 yrs.

I gave him 4 so he could cut off the sections
to get the size i wanted. I didn't know he
could make a spacer section to weld in
to get the right width. all 4 were good wheels.
they were a take off set from e-bay tire shop.
he trues them after he finishes welding them.
I hope i didn't get carried away and make them
to wide for my truck. I originally thought 9'
would be fine for the 275x40x18 tires i want
to run.
