I just emailed OD iron about these wheels in the picture here. Lady said they dont make them anymore.

Is there any where else to get nice deuce wheels?

I dont really want Hemtt wheels because they are so heavy, 160+lbs ea.

Try here:
Long's Wheel & Rim in Jacksonville, FL
Contact Roger Brodt, 904 757 3710

I agree with trying LONG'S WHEELS; they made me a "custom" set for 14x20's for my bobbed deuce. VERY easy to work with and good price [$208.00 ea]
They evidently can make anything you dream up; mine are relatively simple one piece wheels made to look like two piece--I had them drill fifteen 5/8" diameter holes around the perimeter and I installed bolts and nuts in them.

Thanks TxAndy. I appreciate the plug. However, for 1 pc wheels I 3rd Longs. Ask for CJ and mention my name.

Didn't OD Iron just get the rims done at Longs anyhow? When I got mine last year the shipping label had Longs name and address on it.

Does anyone know the current price from Longs for the rims that OD Iron used to sell?

I would suggest just calling them and asking and getting shipping rates.
My "custom" wheels from them were $208.00 ea and $90.00+or- TOTAL shipping to North Carolina for 4 wheels.
They are good people!!

Custom wheels

The Long's wheel website makes it sound as though they keep a design record of the wheels they build for customers. Does anyone have pictures of the wheels they've purchased there? It would be nice to see and order a wheel that has already been designed for a customer's M35A2, rather than start from scratch.

Thanks.

IF I could figure out how to post pictures, I would.
Mine were very simple--one piece wheels 11"wide with 5" offset and I had them drill 15 holes 3/4" diameter evenly spaced about 1-1/4" in from the outer edge and I put bolts with lockwashers and nuts to make them look like 2 piece wheels at first glance; IMO just solid rugged looking wheels.
All you have to do is tell CJ what you think you would like and he can email you a drawing--But his drawings are VERY basic and you have to have an imagination to know what it would look like in real life.[After saying that, I understand why you would like pictures of wheels they have already done!]
Will try to brush up on my computer skills and post pictures.

Hey John, there is a guy in the classifieds selling those exact wheels with some well worn xml's for 1500, he has been advertising for a loooong time so he will probably take less. I will find a link and post it for you.
