Reply to "Polished Campi clones..."

Coddington, who makes (made) the PE clones, was bought out by some big name firm. Ah, American industry, gotta love it.

They obviously are not too interested in small runs of wheels and anyhow Coddington had already pissed off Marino when he shifted the center so the pentagrams aligned slightly differently and thus he had a different wheel that he could sell to another vendor and not 'technically' break his 'exclusive' he had with Marino. Ah, American business ethics, gotta love em.

We all now know from American Hotrod what an ass and jerk Coddington is. Clincher for me was the custom build where the custom Coddington wheels wouldn't clear the calipers on the car they put together. His solution? Wheel spacers - from a guy who made his name with custom wheels.

I've heard there are now lawyers involved in this sordid PE clone affair.

Short story, no more PE Coddington wheels are expected. You want them? Better start beating the bushes for guys upgrading (?) to other wheels.
