H1 wheel centers (USA6x6 is no more?!?)

[friel01]

I am about to buy a set of 12 bolt military wheels and before I plopped down the cash, wanted to check again on the availability of new (6 lug) centers. Looks like USA6x6 has folded up shop. I see from another post that Copperhead fabrication is a source of the new centers. Anyone else I should consider?

Even if USA 6x6 was still around, I would hope none would do business with them. I personally haven't dealt with them, but several of my local wheeling buddies have, and the least of the issues with them was a 7 month wait for them to ship a paid order.

I used the USA6x6 centers on my wheels & I think they are great & were easy to install. I'm not a big fan of the flat centers, if for no ther reason than weight, although the stamped design should be stronger.

When I ordered tham from Daniel, he stated that they would be coming direct from the factory in Southern California. I bet you may be able to find the mfg by making some phone calls to Socall wheel makers.

Maybe American racing?

I thought stockton wheel was making them and last I heard they wouldn't sell to anyone but Danial, now that he's gone under who knows?

Those H1 wheels will be the heaviest wheels you've ever picked up. I know as I have 2 sets of 3/8" plate centers/ H1 wheels combo. I wouldn't go this route again even if it cost more to go w/ less weight. I'd look into the lightest center available, which are the pressed one's. Or go w/ the dbl. beadlocked Hutchinson aluminum wheels, which'll be 2X lighter, but prolly 3X more expensive

weight

not exactly worried about the weight. EVERYTHING on a cruiser already weighs a ton. Besides, I shaved several hundred lbs off by switching to an all aluminum engine over the original lump.

And heavy wheels will just lower my center of gravity.

the pressed centers are a much better designed unit. They are superior in just about every way...

I am not a big fan of Daniel. But, like Sixty said, they did what he paid them to.

Most likely, he is getting his centers from Stockton Wheel in Cali..
(nother place I am not all that impressed with)

pressed

having read up a bit more, I will definitly be seeking out pressed centers. Thanks.

 

[mookie]

if your running toyota axles you need to think twice about putting wheels that heavy on the ends of them...

Stockton

to bring closure to this for those searching later...
Stockton wheel will sell the pressed centers, $45 each.

Bump. It's hard to find threads like this where the primary search criteria is two characters.

Anyone use the stockton wheel centers? I just bought a set of 12 bolt H1's and am looking for a good set of pressed centers.
