Harvey Weidman is to wheels as Jake Raby is to engines or CarbonJoe is to fiber -- AWESOME.

Weidman Wheels -- 530-534-7903 -- restored my Fuchs and mounted my tires. They turned out A+. The attention to detail is outstanding. The wheel weights are split behind the spokes when weight was called for between the spokes. He balances inside and outside weights. They are painted inside and on the backs. The anodization is even and smooth. They were mounted without a single mark. He went out of his way to get and fit the Ferrari aluminum stems.

The wheels are stripped, checked for trueness/roundness and tweeked as needed, polished, anodized, painted and baked. Center cap crests are hand painted.

Here's the specs:
* Front: 16X6 Fuchs; 205/55; +2" CCC fender; 1.5" spacer; Ghia disks
* Rear: 16X7 Fuchs; 225/50; +3" CCC fenders; 2.5" spacer; CB Performance Race disks
* Yokohama ES100
* Porsche Lapis Blue Metallic color matched to car
* Ferrari aluminum valve stems with Porsche caps

Fuch'n'Groovin,
Bill
