Since you did not provide any context for your question and since your screen name is  1969shelbygt350 which denotes interest in that year Shelby yes I have a suggestion and advice.  Don't use it on a 69 because it will look odd IMO.

Believe they are just a reseller so they have little or no control over quality or many other issues related to a specific product. Been decades sine I purchased produces that they had made for themselves. Back then there was no problem, ordered, paid and the parts showed up as expected.

Ecklers (Mac's) was purchased a few months ago and the Model A crowd has had bad experiences with the new company. I don't have any 1st hand experience though.

After waiting 10 months for some Fairlane door panels from Mac's, they cancelled the order. Another supplier had them to me in a few months.

To each their own . If they look so good why don't you see more on other 69 Shelby's ? ;)  Just my opinion others have different .

Those are one of the Legendary series of wheels offered by Holley/Scott Drake.

Lots of better places to buy that wheel. My experience with Ecklers is they often send you the wrong part and then ignore emails trying to return the part for a refund. Dreadful customer service.

I checked on Holley/Drake

Maybe instead of there you should check Summit Racing, Jeg's, Coker Tire and Tony Branda.
