Update: yesterday marked two weeks since I had ordered my Moon discs without receiving them. I emailed Mooneyes to inquire as to there whereabouts and get an ETA. Shortly thereafter, I got a UPS notice that they were shipped yesterday and would be due in Connecticut in a week. I don’t know if they make them to order or if they just flaked and forgot to ship mine (which I suspect) I’ve only bead-blasted one of the two wheels so far, so this likely won’t delay completion of this project much, but three weeks is a long wait, so I’d advise anyone interested in Moon discs to order well in advance and follow-up early and often.
I’m really eager to jig and weld them! These wheels are heavy at 30 lbs. each and a chore to strip and prep between the rust and the adhesive from the stainless face, so I might look for alternatives for three-season use (tons of interchange in the 5x114.3 lug pattern, including Crown Vics) and ultimately use this pair for snow tires.
