Nice set of wheels but that is a lot of scratch. If I had that kinda money to spend think I would go with DNA wheels and shotgun shock. Still waitng on winning lottery numbers to make that happen.

Ride Wright Wheel

PRIMO IS FORGED BILLET, NOT SPOKES. WORTH THE EXTRA $300 TO ME.
Did you get a quote from any one else For the Ride Wrights? Believe it or not going direct through Ride Wright is the most expensive option. You can save a lot of cash going through Dr Vtwin or another dealer.

Truth be told, Im not trying to compare apples to oranges here. I really wanted to go with Billet's from the get go. Not that there is anything wrong with stainless steel spokes. Just my preference. If I am spending some money on wheels, my opinion is that billet is just a better option. Yes, it is more expensive. but like I said earlier, I don't want to be hassling with loose spokes or tubes. Plus cleaning these rims will be a breeze.

I called a few diff. people to get prices on all sorts of rims. Hogpro,Ride Wright,Loud Pipes n More, Creative cycles, Chopper shop 1, Sinister and Primo. I have settled on either the Primo's or Sinister's at this point.

I think your reasoning on going with billet wheels is spot on and one day I'll probably make the switch for the same reasons. There's a sponsor on here that would be worth checking into, they had great package prices but unfortunately I can't think of their name right off but have them bookmarked at the house. I think it was southern wheels or something like that? I'll post it when I get home this evening if you don't already know who I'm talking about. I'm thinking they had entire packages for under $2k or so for some nice stuff but they didn't have spokes. The spokes you posted are definitely bad *** and I hope they are around when I go for an upgrade.

I liked the Billet Daddy until I saw the Premo. If I was in your shoes the decision would be made. Yes $3K is a lot of scratch but you do get what you pay for and you don't want to be kicking your self in the a** down the road by "settling" for something else for a few $$.
Cheers!

That boy is LOCO! He's upgrading before he even finishes installing the new stuff he just got. That boy has lost his mind! But I bet it feels good. LOL

Did you order yet? Another good thing about the Billet wheels is they are quite a bit lighter than the steel fat spoke wheels.

You fvkers gotta stop this **** .You are making me want to get new wheels and I like the wheels I have lol.

Pooch go with your first instinct.Pay a little extra now or a lot extra later. When your not happy because you feel you settled for something. Do it once do it right. I have learned the hard,expensive way with a few things.

My only reservation would be that these guys seem to be new to the game. However, if I was aware of these wheels before I ordered mine, I'd would have been at their shop checking them out because I really like them.
