Boyd Coddington wheels

[mad0953]

Greetings from bone chilling Southern Oregon. 12 degrees here this morning and I am trying to buy some wheels.....go figure. Does anyone out there run the Boyd Coddington "Rebel" wheels on their Viper??? If so do you have any pics? Really like the look of the wheels and want to do something a little out of the ordinary on my car. Thanks

I know this isn't adding anything, but I hate that guy. he's so smug and played-out.

That Rebel PH rim looks great, I wonder if it's also available in 18 inch
But I agree with snampro that Boyd's personality isn't all that great.

Every time that I hear his name it makes me think of the sucky show he had. I really like the wheels that are posted above but don't want to have his name on my car. If they were Foose wheels, I would have no problem.

I was told by the tire store here where I live that they could get those wheels in 18 X 10 and 18 X 13 for my car. I wonder if the Viper caps would fit in place of the Coddington caps? Don't know much about him. Thought the wheels sould be a bunch more because of the name but was surprised. Maybe he found God like Roofum??

LOL....roofum found God like I found a million dollars under my pillow this morning. Notice that after "finding God" he went on to get banned from this forum anyway.

I like that first picture posted in here...are they heavy as boat anchors or pretty light?

I have seen ONE set, the seller wanted to trade in 2-years old. They needed a re-chrome BADLY....chrome job was cheap / inferior. We passed.

Watch what you are buying most of his wheels are
made offshore and are of poor quality.

Better Off with an HRE 545 if anyone likes that wheel above.

Appreciate the input guys.....don't want Mr. Happy to be wearing shoddy shoes.

This might out there, but how would look with six holes??

[mad0953]

Good question Randy....I'll have to find out. I am glad you noticed that.

Boyd sold the wheel business to American Racing Wheels last year. I bet the quality is lacking now.

 

[mad0953]

OK.....off on another tangent. Does anyone have the CCW SP550's? Just talked to John at CCW and I could have a set in about 2 weeks. Any pics?? They look good on CCW's website. Thanks.....I am wheel crazy now that I have the new PS2's sitting in the garage.

There goes Mr. Happy again...

Chip Foose ftw. He makes custom rims..Forgot the company that makes them for him..Boyd is a bitter old windbag...That being said I loved quite a few of his hotrods though....

I wouldn't buy a bolt from Boyd let alone wheels. That is one angry man who treats his employees like ****.

These are CCW SP5W Wheels. I had them chromed at Cal Chrome after John made them.
