Default You want to race this season on slicks?

I cannot stress this enough and this happens every year, especially at the beginning of the year.

GET YOUR WHEELS AND SLICKS EARLY! Buy them ahead of time. Give yourself 4-5 weeks before an event to order the wheels and/or slicks. Do not order last minute and expect to have them within the next day.

1. There will be certain times that there is limited inventory on certain slick sizes and it can take days to weeks to get them made. Plan in advance.

2. While we strive to keep our stock on the Lenso VPD and M&H tires up to date to get them shipped out same or next day, we have been experiencing a large increase in sales this year and we were unprepared for it. Our batch of wheels that was supposed to last 4 weeks is almost sold out before it even arrives. Our next batch isnt until mid March and I know by then, there are already several races coming up, so get yours early.

3. Other racers like to get the Weld Wheels, which we also try to stock certain sizes, but you have to keep in mind that other people want different backspace and wheels size combinations. Those are custom made and can take up to 4 weeks to make.

4. Shipping on wheels and slicks take about 3-5 days to get to you, so its difficult for retailers to get them mounted and shipped to you by Friday if you call on Wednesday for the slicks/wheels. We know you need to get to the race but to pay $150 more for faster shipping is not worth it if you could have just given yourself a few days extra to order the parts.

Plan in advance please. I hate to be the bad guy because I cant get you the wheels in time. Its you're call to plan ahead and look at the races you want to attend.
The events are coming up quick... its just a few weeks ahead. Dont want you to miss a race just because of no tires to use.

Have a safe racing season.

Wil


Also like to add. In addition to the M&H slicks we stock, we'll have 25 pairs of M/T 24.5x9x13 coming in March. Theyre getting sold out fast, so let me know if you want a set put aside for you.

Ordered some VPD's and M&H's from you a few weeks ago. Thanks for informing us that it would be a little bit before we could get them. It's nice to be informed and not dicked around. I'll be calling you later for another set. We appreciate the good service.

Got a set from you last year. Great service.

I had to wait on a big list though because nothing was in stock at all.

thanks! We tried to prevent that from happening this year with running out, but we have so many dealers, local shops now that carry them, and we had a swarm of orders the last few weeks. We're gearing up for a big season so we should be back up and caught up again by March.
