when i talked to bryan from introwheels he said that "rodders" (the wheel that i have) is not made by intro, just sold by intro, the rim itself is made by intro's sister company and intro sells them for them. the rodder is on the intro website
intro rodder but those are also five spoke. blah. if i got screwed im goin to be livid.

Mine are geniune but I also have a different center cap. My caps have the Boyd Coddington logo engraved in cursive writing. When I bought my wheels, 3 of the 4 came with the engraved logo while the other had the emblem cap. I contacted Coddington about this and they told me that it was a new style and promptly sent me an exact match. My Timeless's are also 2 piece and definitely NOT chromed.

yet another reason I will stick to Centerlines or another rim that isn't so pricey.
