WCC= pretty good company

I am not surprised they don't want to deal with CCW anymore.Not because CCw is a bad co. or anything of that nature,it's just that they sell directly to the public through word of mouth and their website.

When I spoke to John about WCC being probably one of their larger distributor a couple years ago,he stated they get the same price on the wheels the public does.

If that is true,then they leave little in the way of profit for WCC to reap.The only thing is they can make a little on the chroming since CCW doesn't want to deal with it

Just my thoughts....

and heard the exact same things. That's why WCC wheels are now made by Asanti, I believe, who doesn't sell to the public.

I can't agree more. That's why I got the CCW Sp16a's and had them chromed myself!

Default New wheels from WCC

Fed-X truck arrived today. New 505A chrome wheels with Pilelli tires. After (a long) 9 weeks...there here. I need to say that Neil at WCC was totally commited to customer service , he went way beyond to make sure I was happy. West Coast Corvette came through, total customer service, awsome. I will post pics when there on the car.

Yea, I bought my Pace car's from them about 3 years ago. They had the best price around, I believe $200 below their competitors. I paid about $750 + 40 shipping. I believe they are almost twice as much now. Good people and nice catalog.
