Wow that is getting into boat dollar range. I'm a little spoiled because I only have old vehicles. When I'm at the Honda shop I see fellows roll in on new stuff and drop several hundred or more on service and assessories without blinking and eye.

I spent the day taking my rims around Portland. The first two shops politely declined to do the work and the third shop that has done recent work for me quoted 275 per rim. I came home and ordered a rear rim and both spoke sets from DSS. The spoke sets were different prices so I hope that is an indicator that they are correct and specific for each rim. Thank You for your help everyone. When I pieces arrive I will now know what to look for to insure they will fit properly. [/code]
Better than the quote of 700 minimum per rim that i got
