this reminds me of the storys you hear when some girl gets raped.

It is very sad, and your sure she NEVER wanted to get raped, but what the flying fock was she in the back alley at 3:30 anyway?????
 
If his "so called experts" are installing the centers, check them to see if they are true before mounting them.

I won't say I wasn't afraid that I wouldn't get my wheels when I ordered from USA6x6 because I was. BUT I did get them and the deal I got on them was so far below what I would have paid from anyone else that it WAS WORTH THE WAIT. It took about 6 weeks from the time of purchase to get my wheels and I was told it would only take 2. However, $350 got me 4 used 12 bolt wheels with 3.75" bs, 4 new o-rings and valve stems and 4 ultra light inserts. I underlined used because these were wheels someone else had already welded centers into, they just got sand blasted and machined to run true before I got them.

Those "used" wheels, are his screwups that other customers wouldnt accept.
I hope you didnt get one of my sets that I sent back (3 sets in all).
They installed the centers and beat them half ass straight. You could see 20 to 25 hammer marks on each wheel. Then cut over half the material off the center to try to get it close to true.

Price has alot to do with it BUT with him no matter what you pay or how long you wait you will still get SH*T.

Just remember when talking to him or any of his grunts "If his mouth is moving he is LYING"

For what I paid I don't care if the keebler elves made them in their tree house with a twig welder. :haha:
 
Well... I've been waiting for 3 weeks and 4 days now. Orignaly told 4-6 weeks. I was told last wednesday id have them this week. I'll be sure to check them to make sure they are true. What would you all say it acceptable runout on the lip of the rim (up & down / left & right)?
 
Mam, after hearing all the noise on these, I figured I was just going to try Staun Internal Beadlocks, all ready have a set wheels. Isn't there somebody else making wheels like this?

Do you mean, is there more than just USA 6x6 re-centering H1's? Yes, there are places here and there that do it. Most people like the pressed centers better though, and I only know of 6x6 offering those. Other places will make them from plate (the centers) but opinions vary on those. Some places will take the 6x6 pressed centers and re-center them for you. I went that route, with a company near Houston.

I think if I had to wait that long for something that was promised way sooner i would be requesting some sort of discount. I know in my line of work if the vender says 4-6 weeks, then i would place my order in advance to insure that i would have the parts by the time i got off the tug, and if they wasn't there, I would be calling the credit card company for my money back......

Ok, just placed my order... :deal:

4- H1, 8bolt recentered double beadlock rims with 3.5" of back-spacing and 8x6.5 lug pattern with a primer finish...

Spoke with Daniel for a quote on 3/20 and placed the order with Clint on 3/21, however Daniels post says 10% OR free shipping... I only got the 10% off, even though my total with shipping was higher. Difference of about $55. :screwy:

4/12- Called and spoke with someone to check on my order. Said I should have my wheels by next week. I sure hope so...

5/2- Was told that they were waiting on centers from the vendor that makes them for them. And that ALL H1 rim orders would ship out on Friday 5/4

5/8- Called and talked to Heather today to ask if my rims had been shipped and she informed me (after I got disconnected and had to call back) that my information had been lost! RIiiiighhht! I dont see how that is fockin possible because I've called to check on my order several times! Well she assured me that everything would be taken care of and my rims would be shipped out. So after getting off the phone with her I started to get frustrated. I called back and was put on hold... 10 seconds later I was disconnected again!... So I call again and get Heather. I explain to her that I'm not satisfied without some specifics. "when will the rims be done?, when will you ship them?. and when will i get them?" I think this is a fair request for an order I placed almost 7 weeks ago. Well she puts Daniel on the phone who apoligizes and tells me one of my rims has allready been built since i last got off the phone (its only been 15 min) and that they are working on the other 3 rims....riiiiiiiighhhht....Ill take that with a grain of salt.... ANyhow, he tells me I will have my rims by Friday. So I ask if I can have tracking info once they ship out and he says thats not a problem and puts Heather on the phone. She takes my email address and the conversation ends... In my opinion if they can finish one of my rims in 15 min then why was it 4-6weeks in the first place and we are going on 7 weeks now!

5/9- Had tracking info emailed to me late yesterday. 4 boxes. FedEx Ground, signiture required. Estimated Delivery 5/11. At this point I'm glad they have been shipped but nervous that they might lack quality since the rims were fnished quickly to get them shipped and delivered by friday.

THE GOODS- WELL.... I got my rims on 5/11/07. First impression was, WTF! they were bare steel and supposed to be primer finish! Ok, it sucks, but I can deal with it I guess. So I start takin them outa the boxes and started to check out the welds. The welds looked like good MIG welds and I was pleased. With no primer I could see they had good penetration. Upon further inspection of the hardware there was enough new studs and locking nuts as well as valve stems but NO O-RINGS!! I was pissed, but figured once I call they could have them to me in a few days. Upon furter inspection all the outer shells had some dings in them and you could see where they hammered them back out a bit. Not a perfect wheel by any means, but this is expected from a military take-off I suppose. However, one of the outers was WAY bent and there was no way my bead was even going to seat on this thing. I was even more pissed! So I decided to check the backspacing.. YUP, they got that wrong too. It was 3.75" instead of 3.5"!!!!! WTF!!! So after I calm down I call and ask to speak with Daniel. He was apoligized and what not, and its obvious hes got lots of practice with that and he insisted that the rim that was bent was damaged in shipping. He said he would send me a new outer shell and 5 o-rings. I told him I could deal with the fact that they weren't primered like they were supposed to be and the backspacing was .25" off, but the rims were useless with no o-rings and the bent outer was unacceptable.

Well, I was away on buisness and called him 8 days later (5/18) to see if the orings and outer had shipped yet and he informed me that they had not... WTF!! Today is 3/21 and I hope to hell they are at my door when I get home.

Quality level of welds: Excellent
Quality level of paint: Were SUPPOSED to be primer finish and were shipped bare steel, so N/A or BAD

Customer service quality: The above information speaks for itself
