As you can see from the above post, they are also a site sponsor I had them build a custom wheel for me. I wanted it thicker than stock and with leather at the top and carbon fiber at the bottom. I've had it since March and still luv it.

Above Grip OD - 1.84" vs stock, 1.35"
Just Above the Above Grip OD - 1.46" vs stock, 1.15"
Bottom OD - 1.49" vs stock, 1.16"

The feel is GREAT and the ODs are perfect IMHO.

DCTMS built it exactly to my specs, and I LUV it

The feel is wonderful and the quality is top notch.

To say I am pleased would be a huge understatement.

Man looks good.

I wanna gut my cats so bad... Do you have the stock exhaust? If so how did the sound change

Did you replace the crush gaskets on the exhaust?

Where did you order the sims from
