Deal or not that is a LONG time to wait for rims after they've missed every self imposed deadline this far!!

Well, in their defense they did initially tell me 6-8 weeks, but could take 12. But, the time is part of the price to pay for a custom made wheel. Not like I can say ship them or else! Lol. Best things come to those who wait!

Those gold dayton 100 spokes better look tight

Grrrrr!!! So pissed off! After waiting almost 2 months for these switchbacks, they lasted about 3 minutes before they started flickering and died. The amber works fine, but the white is fried. Back to v-LEDs they go!

That's so strange ... I wonder what happened.

They were working fine. I was testing the lights to make sure polarity was right. Noticed one started flickering and the LEDs looked dim. By the time I went and check the other one and came back, it was off. Went and checked the passenger side again and that one was flickering. Within a minute, both completely out. Put hazards on, worked fine in amber.

Pulled them out, plugged them back in, lit up for about 2 seconds and then went back out.

Refer to post #184, Mr. Non-reader.

It was a joke but also showing my excitement to see the wheels on. My bad I will stop posting.

I had a similar issue with v-leds and then went with these: http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/_W0Q...QQsspagenameZSTRKQ3aMEWNXQ3aIT#ht_2566wt_1165

They were actually brighter than the v-leds and the white doesnt take an hour to come back on after amber like the v-leds do

How quick do they switchback?
