how long did the whole process take?
were you entirely satisfied with everything?
how much did shipping cost?
i assume the wheels are still holding up great, since youre still happy?
did you order from Jova?
Shipping was the longest because it's sea shipping, round about 30 days on the boat and another week for UPS. I kept changing my mind when ordering and making them redo everything like 10 times, and I wasn't in a hurry because it was coming up on winter and here you have to have winter tires on the highways. They were actually really patient with me and did all the changes without complaining. If you know exactly what you want it will take about 1.5 months, don't worry its worth it.
Yes, I am entirely satisfied, actually it was better than expected because I didn't pay any import fees or taxes that I thought I would have to pay for.
Shipping was 300usd, that included the center caps that I had made with the tesla logo sent by air to me. They will arrange everything, unless you already have a shipping broker in China that you use.
Ya they turned out really nice, mine are actually really complicated because they are brushed and clear coated aluminum and all the little curves ect are very difficult to do with brushed. They tried to steer me away from brushed but my wife wanted it and I don't want a headache.
I ordered from Jova, I contacted them through whatsapp and started talking to them.
Some advise -
Get the 3 different computer schematics, they will provide them. You want the one that tells the exact weight, the stress schematic, and the 3d cad rendering. Look at it before you order anything. The sales girls give general weight claims, the computer tells the exact weight. Trust me, if you are wanting the lightest wheel, get these before you send any money. If weight is your main goal, mine wasn't, then get something that looks light.
Keep your receipt of the wire transfer and make the bank do it, the address is very long and weird so you don't want any mistakes.
Don't worry about shipping, 300 is not much considering the space they take up. You're still getting a forged wheel at a low cost.
Ignore the people that have made it their lives goal to say these aren't any good, they are perfectly fine and 98% of all wheels are made in china anyways.
