Dont get me wrong, the Coys wheels are nice looking styles, I would have bought em if they werent made in China.
No offense, but in the end your American made Centerlines still look like Centerlines. This is fine if you like the choices they offer but sucks if you want a classic type wheel. I priced Centerlines version of the Halibrand kidney-bean/salt-flat style of wheel & inexpensive they weren't.

The 'look' of certain wheels requires Budniks or Billet Specialties etc which cost twice as much as Coys (or Centerlines ). That's what makes the Coys attractive..... classic styling that's affordable & available in a larger selection of offsets & bolt patterns that work on classic GM trucks.

Building a small, high rpm engine with the perfect bore, stroke and rod ratio is very impressive.
It's like a highly skilled Morrocan sword fighter with a Damascus Steel Scimitar.....

Cubic inches is like Indiana Jones with a cheap pistol.
