My real favorite is all of the minivans that wind up being reborn in Mexico instead of being crushed. You see an 88 Dodge Caravan in Dago, sure bet it's got Font BC plates on it.

 I nicknamed these things Spotahomes cause the people in em ain't spota be here.  ;)

Don,   Is there a military base anywhere near you ? If so, go hang out by the entrance early in the morning and at about 1430 and you'll have a rolling parade of every wheel made. Those young servicemen and women will put $3,000 rims and tires on a $2,000 car.   B B 

Jamey is the NCOIC - SGM - in charge of all training at Fort Lee.  You are just not joking.  The more senior the service member gets, the older and funkier their vehicles, but those younguns, living in the barracks, all meals covered, all clothes covered, all entertainment (legal kind) covered.  They are driving dream vehicles around here. 

I mean, we don't have kids so are paying for any weddings or college and we do OK, but the privates, man oh man, they seem to have money to burn.

Pulled the trigger on wheels, tires, 3 rotors, pulley, and two chrome calipers.  :huepfenjump3: 8)

I'm not telling which ones I picked.... :P :P

You'll all just have to wait and see.... :2vrolijk_21: :)

Let me add that my dealings with Phil at Hogpro have been nothing but completely excellent...Phil has gone out of his way to provide opinion, expertise, and honest evaluations of the merchandise he carries.  Like he told me yesterday...he'd rather sell me his Hogpro line of wheels, but his main goal is to make me happy.  Of course, he has no control over the other vendors who supply him, but he goes above and beyond to ensure good customer service.  Prices are good, and the wheels/tires will come to my door totally ready to install.  Just can't ask for it to get any better than that.  I'm not dealing with Xtreme parts, so we'll see if he can get everything I need from the vendor in a timely manner.

Terry I can't agree with you more. I just got off the phone with Phil we spoke for over 45 minutes talking about everything from chromers to the moco and our love of motorcycling in general. They are stand up and i would recommend them to anyone who needs wheel and tire packages. He said that you had mentioned my dilemma to him. Thanks for that Terry now we have 2 of us on the hunt for my stuff. On the wheels themselves your guess is as good as mine when I will ever see them.    Later,Q

Since yours will be in line behind John's that means you should have them in time for Sturgis.

By the way, what did you choose for calipers?  You'd mentioned a couple of options.

One thing about changing the calipers is that bleeding duals is a bitch. Its tough to get a good feel out of them after you uncork the hoses.
