I am wondering if anybody tried these rims? Any feed back is appreciated. Wondering if it can accommodate wheel locks.

Im not sure if they are the same manufacturer, but I bought a set for my Z1b and they suck. Terrible weld,. The front was so bad it was a flat spot, spokes wouldnt tighten, and had to send it back for replacement.

I plan on replacing them with aluminum.

Thanks Kidkawie. That is what I needed to know. Too bad, really liked the idea of stainless steel rims vs chrome. Please post which aluminum rim you go with. I know they get pricey. But as long as the quality is there. I'm also wondering how you incorporated the rim locks into the new rims.

I had already looked at the Excel. I may look into this first:

If the quality is there, then it would be an excellent deal.

Here is one (just the aluminum rim) from a vendor which is close to my dad's house. About 2 hours away from me but I we visit his house once or twice a month.
