    Yes bad experience, ordered 15 x 8 reversed supremes from them in early August. They told me I'd have them in 2 weeks. A month later I got them. Went to mount tires on them, one balanced, the other one was untrue. Had them send me a new one, it too was untrue. I finally got the third wheel a little more than a week ago. 2-1/2 months after I ordered them. To top it off, it took a lot of wieght to balnce this wheel. I should've sent it back too but I'm tired of messing with them. They do not even manufacture their own wheels (at least not the supremes I ordered) they came from a company called allied wheel components.

    Yes I bought my Crome smoothies with baby moons from him and they are very nice with very good chrome. Service is also very good and he has lots of sizes.

    My only experience with Paulsen was about 10 years ago and I had no problems but that was then and I guess that this is now,

    I have bought a total of 9 wheels from paulsen, all chevy rallys. They made them with custom offsets and each one was perfect. I checked the true of the wheels before I mounted tires. They did take a while to get though. I would buy from them again.

    I bought my chrome smoothies with baby Moons from Paulsen about 2 years ago. Good service even with custom offsets and free shipping-some websire deal they offered. I am pleased with the wheels alkthough 1 wheel,which looked great runs out of true with the tire mounted(and of course if you mount tires,the wheels not warrented). Still it balanced okay and drives fine (it's one of the rears)> I'd probably buy from them again if they had what I wanted.
     
  13. Here's another vote against Pete Paulsen Wheels...bad service, shipping took forever, and the parts were wrong twice.

    Should've used Rally America or anyone else! :confused:

    I bought a pair of solids from them a few years ago. They were nice wheels but NOT cheap for my size. I found simillar prices other places also so I'm not criticizing that. I had no problems with their service, although after reading about everyone that did I would be leary about ordering from them again.
