Alcoa wheels a little expensive when polished
I just purchased some new Polished Alcoas for 200.00 each seemed to be a decent deal what do you think? Best I could find online was 265.00 for new polished alcoas.
They still had 2 sets of 6 ea., one set 22.5 stud piloted and one set 24.5 hub piloted. $200 ea. and are highly polished

Where did you find these wheels. I have had one of my 24.5 to start leaking on the inside. Do you know what the build date are? Thanks

Not a bad price Dom if they are new. Pricey is when they get upwards of $300 ea for the Alcoa permanently sealed wheels.

Sean,
These are new and Polished.
The reason I said pricey, is because a friend told me new ones were selling for $285 ea. and the best price I could find online was $265 ea. I ended up finding a place for $200 ea. as advertised in a truckers mag. in Louisville, KY.
Let me find my receipt and I will post the shop for you Ron if your interested.

you can often find deals on 24.5 alcoas new as they are more common than illegal imigrants.
22.5 at a good price are much harder to find.

A siginificant number of Newell owner's are upgrading their front 315 22.5 tires to 365's that require a wider Alcoa rim. if you are ever in the Miami OK area, I suggest calling the service department a week or so out to see what we have. They are metric however.
