I must say its been an absolute great experience working with Bill to build my wheels...Im a very pushy and indecisive person when it comes to wheels for my vehicles... B. has definitely gone way past my expectations and has helped create one of, if not THE best looking wheels, in my opinion...he has been super quick from sourcing the parts to answering my questions promtly...even late at night! just wanted to say thanks and that more people should look into B. Gormans talents and services for building and customizing wheels!
heres what he has been working on for me...

:thumbsup:

sweet work man!! As someone who refinished a custom set of HRE C20's to sell, I can appreciate the time it took to do things (and the torquing of so many GD bolts :lol: )

A pic of the ones I finished for the guy I sold them to:

Got anything sitting around that would work for an 18? I need a staggered set for my C207 and am coming up with junk or replica junk. :-/

Congrats man!! Glad to see you still doing your thing on your own. Shop looks great! For all those that dont know. Bill is on of THE BEST guys I've ever did business with. His work, and prices are unbeatable. Highly recommend him for rim, and tire work.

P.S. Bill, think a nice B&O System would go nice in the new house..

Great work! Great videos! I'm glad I saw this thread.
I have four 18" I.forged Seneca three piece wheels on my C55. But to get them to clear my brakes I have to run 5mm spacers at all four corners. Are you able to modify these wheels so that they would fit without having to use spacers? Shoot me an email or pm with pricing info, if this can be done.
Thanks
Marc

Here is a set of HRE's I just received from Bill..

(Excuse the crappy pics, took them with my phone. Better ones coming soon with my DSLR and a washed car!)

Also, some pics are with the new H&R springs, and some are before I installed them.
