Let's hope the wheels show up before I head to Vegas in January, cause the crap table might just win out over the wheels.

My whole team are really having fun with this project. We have an entire additional warehouse dedicated to the program, and we've got 6 people going through the process:
1. Open every box.
2. Inspect every wheel.
3. Re-pack every wheel with bubble wrap, in the original box, then pack into an ADDITIONAL outer box for shipping protection.
4. Add center caps to orders that chose them.
5. Ship!
My newly-promoted Shipping Manager Bill Cherwin is overseeing the team effort, and they have been processing HUNDREDS of wheels each day. It's impressive to see the operation. Bill worked with Alcoa to streamline their packaging process, adding a layer of cling wrap, then a protective plastic ring around each wheel's rim.

Well fellows, you should all take a bow for making the impossible, possible.
Thank you. Thank you. Thank you.
It's also more than impressive going the extra mile with respect to quality control - inspecting every wheel as well as the extra boxing. Which other company does that?
Looking forward to having a set of Forged Shelby Alcoas.

Thanks!
The extra boxing is neccessary to ensure everyone gets their wheels undamaged. We insure the outgoing shipments, of course, but a refund for a shipping damage claim isn't going to help anyone when the wheels are so hard to replace. So we made the decision.

Is it cheaper to ship the wheels too a business rather than a residential address? CA address.
