My unbiased review:

I just wanted to let everyone know that my whole process with Chris at FXAutodesign has been a more than pleasant experience. He took my order exactly like how it was supposed to be dealt with and was very assuring and friendly on the phone. I ordered a set of wheels/tires/custom painted a specific color from them, (not gonna say what they are just yet) and i told him that i wanted to get them custom painted a specific color and they took care of me and got it exactly right. I asked for pictures before they were sent out and he made sure to snap a few! He even called me to let me know exactly what was going on at specific points and when they were expecting to ship. They got my wheels back from the paint shop today and they hurried and packaged them all up just so it could make it out today. I never once had any doubts about them after I placed my order. This has been once of the smoothest transactions so far. Its rare to find customer service these days in the world of aftermarket parts like FXAutodesign. So big thanks to Chris and I highly recommend this forum sponsor! A great group of guys over there!

I can't say anything bad about FX AutoDesign. I too had a pleasant experience with them.

I bought my H&R springs from them and they also did the install.

Good folks to do business with

I got a set of euro 63 in 19". My boys shop has wholesale w a few rim/tire places and chris beat our best wholesale price, couldnt resist. I always liked the look and the lip on those wheels, If they would make a 10" rear in them Id sell all my other wheel sets... haha Im gonna do some custom powder coat to them to make them my style and keep them and my carlssons 19s and sell all the rest of them. The euro 63 are the lightest wheel Ive ever had in 19s. I got my brabus 6s at the powder coater now, seperated the centers from the barrels and doing them in satin black w chrome barrels and bolts w matching caps even, then gonna sell them. I had a hard time finding a xyn socket set locally to break those down.

hotel why did u end up going w paint on the wheels and not powdercoat? If your doing some crazy crackle finish I get it, but if your doing something solid colored always go powder. its usually cheaper and holds up way better. My boy owns a body shop and Ive tried so many paints and clears ad they dont hold up for long, especially the cheaper paints. I read u are going matte finish, r u putting clear on top of just going paint only? Is it at least single stage matte or just straight up paint? Im sure u got something original up your sleeve...haha

I always powdercoat, but it was the only thing they offered, but it should come out nice and hold up! They get here Wednesday!
