Wheels suck.

I just wanted to express my hate for the wheel industry.
i am super sick of trying to buy wheels.
here's what i think all wheel companys need to do , to help me out.
1. keep yourwebsite up to date. If you stopped making a wheel, please, delete it from your site, so i don't get my hopes up.
2. list what bolt pattern/offset/backspace/hub bore the wheel comes in. Yes, i realize people don't really care when just bolting up to some stock tahoe, but , it matters to me. A lot.
3. Make blanks. Why not? just make blanks,let me pay a few more dollars to have them drilled.. It would help.
4. Get a tech line. I call wheel places, they don't know crap about their own product, they tell me to call a local tire shop, and then guess what? they don't know shit about wheels either!
5. start making more cast wheels that will acomidate people, such as myself, who have highly modified their rides. Don't say "oh those will fit" when you have NO idea what a body drop is.
I am just really tired of looking for wheels... i've ordered 2 sets in the last two weeks, just to have the center bores be wrong, and them not even cover the dust cover on the front with their wheel caps, or to have the offset listed at the wheel place, to be about 2" off.
yes, yes billet, i know. But getting married, i have to save at least $5.00 for my honeymoon! ha.
sorry. just frustrated.
give me some names of wheel companies i have't called yet for some cool wheels. I think i've called just about all of them, but THE MORE THE BETTER.
