Hey Grey, i replied to harely in my original thread that i have a shipping address in the states (which he requested) and also PMed him, but he never got back. Maybe he overlooked it, so i wrote him again and so far i'm still waiting for an answer.

He offered the service to him when he was looking to buy these, he also offered to redrill a set of the billet mustang wheels for me.

I just couldn't see myself putting a Ford looking wheel on my Chevy tho.

Try contacting harleysshhr, sounded like he knew all about the redrilling process.

Got the Boyd Smoothie II's and they were drilled from the factory for the HHR. Ended up not needing any redrilling.

Piedmont Wheel Repair in Troutman, NC is who did mine with steel inserts or at least got it done for me. Call Dave at 704-661-7980 he had some black bullitt wheels that he may sell you one of. My 17x8 bullitt wheels are 45mm offset so that didn't have to be modified.

David, would you have a mailaddress of Dave at that wheel repair center?
That'd be the fastest and easiest way to arrange things, but i couldn't find anything online.

Here's his E-mail, daveaustin@att.net
Just spoke with him and he said he has a black Bullitt wheel and would be happy to try and help you. And his brother is in international shipping, so I believe we found the right person for the job.

Dave is a great guy, shame you can't meet him in person.
