From what I read on e-bay if there is damage to the wheel due to shipping they will exchange it if there is a defect in wheel, get ahold of manufacture.

I got my pipes from American Classic and there was a blemish in them.... wouldn't answer none of my emails..

The bad thing is that Hooker does all their warranty work through their vendors... If the vendor will not talk to you... I guess you're out of luck...

Don't think I'll do buisness with them again (American Classic)...

The dealer told me I have 3/4 inch bearings, also 39mm forks, I am not sure about the install when they start talking about useing different wheel spacers.

I see I have one spacer about 1inch wide on the brake caliper side.

I want to remove the oem 21" and install the 19" without a hassel.
