    I just bought a set for my truck. They look great and have been on for about a month. Can't give ya any long term on them yet. Price was good and when I found out they were american made I bought them immeadiately!!!

    Also I saw someone wanting to trade their Alcoa's.....You might try asking the dealership where you will be purchasing the rims, as I did the exact same thing. Worked out great!!!

    We are introducing our 22.5 x 14 next month. If you have a dealer that you work with have them contact us at Forgitron and we will help them get the rims.

    Richard, thanks for the info. I have called my local dealer and they don't have any in stock. Do you know when they will be available?

    Has anyone used the Forgitron super singles? I still can't find them but was told that the wheels will be displayed at the Mid America Show

    Can anyone from forgitron answer my question that I asked before, is there some reason that you don't make stud piloted wheels for the older trucks yet.

    It would be very difficult for me to buy anything from South Carolina given their civil rights history and continued delving into slavery. Saddly enough they still have not embraced the US constitution and basic concepts such as due process. Many products are made by inmates and sold to the public. If they need more workers, well just arrest more....

    Sad but too, too, true.

    Be Carefull

    ##### dude..........let it go man. I bet you still think the civil war started and was over slavery too.
    Just so you'll know George Bush is no longer President.


    You talking about Alcoa? Thats what is on my truck and there from Mexico with a lower weight rating than the Alcoa's that are on my trailer that are made in the USA.

    In answer to two questions, our 22.5 x 14 will be available in May at most distribution points. Also all of our signiture product is made in Camden South Carolina, and is Polished and packaged in Cleveland Ohio. We are very aware of what our competition is doing in other parts of the world. You can see out plant on Google. If any one would like to visit please call me my phone is included in this post.
