hubcap heaven in cary

well.. i guess any place could do it.

Yeah, but some places have better stuff than others. The balancing equipment is important. And they need the right tool to prevent from scratching your rims... and I hate it when they use those sticker-weights on the outside of the rim. Argh.

And you're supposed to use a mounting lubricant with victoracers, which some places forgoe....

I've heard all the rumors... but has anyone used Phantasm? They're on tirerack's list, and they're one of the less expensive companies... and they have time to do it.

westgate uses coats equipment, which I'm not really familiar with. It might be good, I dunno. I know the latest hunter stuff is supposed to be the best (phantasm uses older hunter... so I don't know if that's any good either).

^ yeah.. ive heard TONS of good stuff about them.

9/23/2005 3:55:07 PM

I've been tryin to get in touch w/ MMAutowerks for the last 30m, but nobody is answering the phone. They close at 5 anyways, so I think it's too late for that :/

I think I'm just gonna have to go to phantasm and hope they don't steal anything off my car.
