Re: kudos to les schwab and wheel vintiques

In the end, to buy a set of Wheel Vintiques steelies from Les Schwab and have them powder coated it will cost more than $25 a wheel. They screwed up on your order and had to eat the cost of outside sandblasting ($156). So my shop charges $260 a set for what Les Schwab would charge $256 to do on wheels they made money on. That's making more sense. Sorry to distract from your thread, but I felt the 3-nub info was essential info for all. The cost thing I only intended to make the one comment, till other comments on it came in. I have a set of gloss red 8" Kelsey Hayes steelies I had done 10 or more years ago for a truck that never happened. I'll work them in on the '67 I'm doing. I also want to run drag radials on 10" wheels for more frisky times, while retaining 4 tire rotation with the 8s for distance driving. I'll be ordering a pair of 10" WVs at some point
