|
i was thinking about ordering a set of Torkers from cip then i noticed the midland center cap. i wasn't aware that anyone was repoping the torker other than JGE.
i've heard a good bit of quality issues with midland's wheels. anyone know if these truly are midland or what?...ken.... _________________ ITMC

If the pic had a Midland centercap, why wouldn't you assume they are made by Midland? _________________

mostly because i wasn't aware of anyone other than JGE doing repops of them. i was actually shocked when i saw MIDLAND on the cap in their pics. i was ready to order a set yesterday until i saw that. maybe midland has gtten their quality issues in check i don't know that is why i was asking...ken.... _________________ ITMC

That truly sucks!
The guy's at JGE have done so much for the VW scene with their wheels and then MWS keep coming along and ripping off everything they do!
Quality of the MWS wheels I have seen is really poor in comparison.
I have JGE Raders and they are awesome! would still buy them over MWS if they were 10 times the price! (except then I might try and get some genuine empi raders- _________________ http://search.ebay.co.uk/_W0QQsassZsethnsuzie
