Default Jon/Driverz Inc. Rules! GM Prototype Wheel update!

You all may remember I bought some GM Prototype wheels that were a little worse for wear. Here's a picture of the before:



Well, I took them apart and sent the centers and outer rims off to Jon to have some blemishes fixed, and have them refinished and powdercoated. I got some pictures from Jon today, and I must say, I am more impressed than I thought I could be. I can't wait to have these together and on my Z06!









The kind of attention to detail and absolutely outstanding customer service that Jon gives is a shining example of how every business should be run. I know I'm not ever going to buy wheels anywhere else, that's for sure!

Thanks, Jon!!

Thanks for that, those are going to look so SWEET on your ZO6. Can't wait until we can get started on your set of Concept 3's for it too! I appreciate the kind words, and I'm glad to be of service.

That's the Smoked Titanium on Brushed aluminum, and it's AWESOME!

Not exactly, yours is much more gray, and you can't see the alluminum through the powder coat like you can on the smoked titanium finish. It's a nice color though, huh?

Tim, did you still need a set of 305/35/20 Nitto's for mock up? I might have a "slightly used" set coming in from a customer of mine if you want to use them. I'll let you know if/when they get here.
