Anybody else have problems getting wheels made when they say they will make them? Promise 3-4 weeks, take 8. WTF? Are they going out of business too?

Been waiting 8 weeks for two wheels. Is there a manufacturing problem at weld?

Had a set ordered on Apr. 28th. Shop filled out form with Weld and ordered thru Summit. Summit's site has a 3-4 week timeframe...still does if you look.
Weld said 6-8.....hope Summit has some pull.
Very impatiently waiting...will be 4 weeks on Fri.
Favorite part is paying in full up front.
Ugh.

Not sure it will make a difference, but...who did you order the wheels from??
8 weeks sucks...I am going to send a message to Summit and see if they have a shipping date estimate.

not sticking up for weld but it is coming off the busy time of year for most manufactuers , guys order parts jan-feb to get racing, tax returns etc .... hopefully you guys get what you need quick...... when the weld v series wheels came out i waited i think 6-7 weeks for the dragster front wheels from weld....... its worth the wait ....weld makes very nice wheels and made in america

Weld takes their time all year long. They make some nice wheels but the QC isn't always reliable. Their estimated shipping dates are a flat out lie. I got my wheels in the ninth week and they came in pretty good condition except for the finish polishing. Given the number of wheels they manufacture I think they could greatly improve build time with the proper scheduling.

11 weeks to delivery.
Have not seen in person yet, but have not heard of any damage.
Couple of possibilities for such a long time...
They are swamped...great to hear...hire some more people.
They were waiting for 'x' number of orders for this particular wheel style before a production run is made.

Whatever the reason(s) may be...all I asked was to be told when to expect my wheels. Paid in full up front and kept getting 'updated' shipping estimates...always dangling that date 3-4 weeks out.
Sucks to wait for parts...really hate to be told a date for delivery to only have it be BS.

Moving on...not worth getting all bent now.

Heading to see car/wheels soon so will be posting pics on my instagram...https://www.instagram.com/blackdogny/
