Ed,
That was me with the COE and yes I had the wheels made in CA. I used Stockton Wheels, and they cost $275 per wheel in 2008,powder coated to the color I wanted. That firm is under new ownership so I have no knowledge of their work. I am still happy with my wheels, enjoy the ride with radials (you need all the help you can get sitting on top of that front axle with no shocks). To be clear, I am not anti split rims but I had the Firestone RH-5s all around and wanted to scrap them.

Some folks don't like the look of the tubeless wheels with the drop center and if I came across 6 split rims of another type that were in good condition, I would consider going back to bias tires.
