Has anyone bought wheels from hdwheel.com? I ask because they are one of the few, if not the only supplier who has 17 X 6 rear spoke wheels for the '06 -present softail. They offer a lot of options for spoke wheel configurations and powdercoating but I can't find any recommendations on here for or against the quality of their product. I'm just wondering about the overall quality of the wheels, bearings, powdercoat etc. and whether they stand the test of time.Thanks.

Anyone have experience with this company? Hard to believe no one's bought from them with all the trash talking in the softail forum about DNA products.
