So I have looked at that site, and prices are good, but shipping on a set of wheels hits $600, negating the savings on the wheels. Do you know of a cheaper way to get the wheels stateside with a reasonable cost and insurance?

OK so he said that's about what he paid. But his wheels were only $300 for the set because they were a weird size, 6-lug wheel.

I was once talking wheels with a friend in the biz. "Know so-and-so wheel?" he asked me, referencing a rather popular wheel in our world. "We used to make it."

Some wheels can have quite a history. There's a popular wheel in our world that's on the..third?...factory. Maybe fourth.

See also: During the pandemic, I heard how some production had to be moved from country to country due to supply issues, even involving things like the boxes needed for the finished wheels.
