Looking for a new set of trim rings for my '69 RR. Stockton says they have O.E.M. style rings and their about half the price of Year One. Anyone go this route?

wheels !!! Took 6 weeks to get rims !! they told me 4 to 6 weeks

nice work, but can be very slowwwwwwww. They have been known to overpromise, and deliver late. I would really press them on a delivery date.

My uncle just had Stockton make up a set of 10" wide 16" 8-lug wheels so he could get slicks under his diesel. The wheels came out perfect. Best pass 12.98 boiling the slicks. I have not dealt with Stockton personally, but I hear they do great work.

They where very slow in building my 17" cop wheels. They took 3 months to get them to me. I was happy with them when they arrived, but later learned that one was not centered and had about 1/2" lateral runout. They balanced OK, but I still had a strange vibration at speed. Vibration dissapeared when the wheels where swapped out. Overall inmpression is not good for me. I also couldn't belive how heavy a 17x10" steel wheel could be. These things weighed more that the 35" BFG's and M/T wheels on my Dodge ram.

Did exactly that! While the Stockton trim rings were not exactly correct, but look very nice. They were also cheaper than other sources, but shipping and delivery was slow.

I had my wheels done from them, and was very impressed, and they were pretty close on the delivery date they said they would give.
