Hello all,
I am ideally looking to buy a set of hub-centric Alcoa wheels.
Cash in hand if local / west coast. More than happy to pay for shipping as well.
Thank you in advance!
Super excited to be here!

Andrew- reach out to Dennis Hill. he is out of indiana, and he really does a good job of finding used alcoas, and the correct one's. I think he sold his last set recently that he had found, so not sure he has anymore to sell right now. but normally when you find used alcoas they come with a junky coach attached to them you have to deal with, and need lots of labor to polish back to luster.
I just helped a owner install a set of hub centered Ion rims on his coach bought from Applied GMC. they are Nice Rims. I personally would not waste too much time hunting up a set of Alcoas. Alcoas's are the best, but spendy and hard to find not attached to a coach.
The ION that JimK sells comes complete with lug nuts, fit nice, and look nice, and price is pretty reasonable. your going to spend that much or more for a set of used alcoas, and if you spend less, you will spend the difference in polish.

I have considered the Ion wheels! I am sure they are very nice but I am not too sure of the country of origin.
Dennis actually reached out to me already on the Facebook group and was very helpful! I am hoping to buy the next set he has available - unfortunately I missed the sale of his last set by only a couple days.
Thank you so much!
