Default There's a place in Macedonia near the I-271/82 interchange that does very nice work. Can't remember

the name, tho.

Default Thanks, heading to Home Depot there this weekend I will look around. Is it on

that marginal road that runs along 271 just to the east of it?

Default Thanks, I went past there today because I was near by, I figured they were closed but it was funny..

because they are about 1 mile off Route 82 on Freeway drive and I couldn't help wondering how much business they got from that road as it looks like it was in a war zone. I have never seen so many chuckholes in my life. There is a sign when you turn on the road that states "Rough Road" and they weren't kidding; if I wasn't in my truck I would have turned around. I am going to call them on Monday and get a price. Thanks again.

Not surprised, the last time I drove down that road was 4 years ago, and it was bad then.

No dice on Blackburns, they will only work on OEM wheels. Nice people but couldn't help me.
