I had wheel vintique build me a set of custom slick rims and they are perfect. I am very pleased, the quality is top shelf. Call Wheel Vintique and inquier, I am sure they will fix you up.

Summit has replaced each wheel in a very timely fashion, so I have been very pleased with there customer service and help. However, I find it hard to believe that with an ounce of quality control that I could experience this. Every wheel that didn't leak or have a hole in it has a blemish somewhere on it. With the reduced price, I am convinced that they are selling seconds!!

Default Boo to Wheel Vintiques!

I called Wheel Vintiques about a month ago to get some information regarding after market wheels for my '65 Catalina 2+2. Ready? Get this. The guy on the other end of the phone told me, "WE DON'T DO CATALINAS!" I said , "Excuse me". He emphatically said again, "WE DON'T DO CATALINAS!" Yet they advertise in every magazine as a Pontiac merchant.

WHAT? Are you saying that Rally wheels came from Pontiac with tubes?
