    My new (old) wheels by Al Reed...Fantastic

    I had bought a set of black centered 7X15s at Hershey and then sent them to Al Reed for factory finishing. They arrived this afternoon and I opened one box. WOW! is the first word that popped into my mind. Truly fantastic work and simply beautiful.
    When I first bought them

    Upon opening the box up today

    My compliments to Al and his staff for the art of wheel refinishing.
