Its about time they made them with billet centres instead of cast. This may increase the price but at least your actually paying for a top quality product. If people are worried about centre caps i can make billet ones to suit.

the reason they where never made it 20 was a strength issue im guessing it now being billet is what will get past the strength issues

Owning a set of simmons can be hard work, from constantly checking air pressures, cleaning and polishing. The reason for checking air pressures is if there isn't enough..... they buckle! I'm not 100% sure but i think the original simmons australia where using BBS outer rims with the simmons centre. Can anyone confirm that?

How much would it cost roughly for a set of Billet centre caps that say "Simmons" on them? you can PM me if you want Quote: Originally Posted by suxgas I'm not 100% sure but i think the original simmons australia where using BBS outer rims with the simmons centre.

Simmons were made using cheap chinese materials and assembled here in aus anyway, I heard the new ones were going to be stronger and cheaper. Win win as far as i'm concerned but i've never heard of anything gayer than FR22s.
