    Did you get the tires with them or separate? Look Good!
    Is that real money?

    Yup, Trailworthy fab. I purchased them with the tires, they did a nice job. Except for one of the tires has some bad dry rot cracking on the side wall, I emailed them but no response.

    Rich: Those tires/wheels look amazing. Is Trailworthy using 3/8" or 1/2" plate for the centers? The centers look to be dished or somewhat concave, right? Thoughts on quality of the centering/fab work? You spun them or put the rims with a dial gauge on them?
    Can you share the shipped cost and lead time to get them? Did you buy four or five?

    Cheers,

    The centers are 3/8 flat plate, the picture is deceiving. It was about four weeks from order to ship and then the freight company jerked around for two weeks. Trailworthy did the mounting and the quality of the wheels are top notch. It ran me around 2100 with tires,shipping,pvc inserts and powder coating. The only complaint I have is one of the tires is rotted on the side wall, I emailed them
    but had no response. Other than the bum tire they do good work.

    Thanks Rich. That's very helpful. After doing such a good job on the fab, its a bummer that they let a bad tire slip through- seems like they would want to make it right.

    Definitely liking the look of those! What's the back spacing on those? 4" or 5"?
