I ordered it back in November and after being on back order it showed up today. From Classic Industries, it was discounted down to $340 and then another $40 to ship. Looks like a nice piece.

In that picture it looks pretty nice, Do you have an original to compare it to? Took the words right out of my mouth, it does look very nice! Ron

Here’s the rim Classic had at SEMA. Little more texture? Or just lighting?

How close to original do the spokes look? Do they have that satin type finish? Are they plated or painted?

How close to original do the spokes look? Do they have that satin type finish? Are they plated or painted? We compared the repo wheel to an original this weekend. pretty nice piece. The size is dead-on and the rim and rim-blow mechanism look great. There are some minor differences in the spokes. The opening in the spokes are slightly smaller and there is a beveled edge on the spoke opening on the original that the repo does not have. Still, you have to have the two side by side to pick up on these. Another photo below.
