I wouldn't hold Budnik up too high. Twice I have wanted wheels from them, twice I have been told 16 weeks
The second time they compounded the issue by wasting 5 weeks. I thought the wheels were ordered and being made, I get an email saying..."Did you want to order the wheels we were discussing". I replied saying I did ...5 weeks ago. They said oh we though that was just an enquiry. When you see my email that says. Great those specs are perfect lets get started how do you want me to pay...I can't for the life of me see how that is an enquiry...
Twice I have gone with alternate suppliers.
Sure I am in Australia but shipping takes under 1 week.
Reality is every company can share great stories and all have horror stories. What is important is not to lie. At least Budnik told me up front it would be 4 months +
I know Rushforth don't make the wheels you want, I had to change my wheel preference also but did so simply on the basis that Jason seems to have a good rep and never heard anyone disappointed. i can say working with him on my latest set of wheels (second set and the car hasn't even hit the road yet) that Rushforth have been nothing short of excellent. Great quality customer service, which is all that matters at the end of the day, it's not about the wheel..plenty of wheel companies, plenty of wheels to choose from, it's about people and service.
