if im going to work on the wheels might as well roll on em. Just like the tbss 22" reps I got them made working with factory reproductions. Took 2 years but worked out great.

No offense I'm just genuinely curious.
What work is there to do? I mean that takes so long?

first of all is interest in the wheel. first run has to be 400 wheels.
2nd is gettin spoke thickness and wheel to look like factory and everything to be proportionate. once that is done then its time to get it into a plant and machine to put the drawings in and make the mold and when they can fit it in since they are doing other wheel runs. then came out to me to test fit on my truck and make sure it clears. That time can make changes to backspacing if needed since pad can be narrowed or widenened.
Then ship wheel back to go over it all and then production run starts which takes about 4-6 months.

********! No way you ran low 12's with a tune and CAI. Try high 12's (12.85 and up). Let's see a time slip. 6.1 jeeps are about 13.3 bone stock BTW.
Sorry Tony for the sidetrack......need some new vids of the V in action too....
