Looks like a pre-owned rim that was installed, taken back off, thrown back in the box, returned, and re-sold. Even the packaging (if you can call it that) looks like someone was in it before you.
I put a chrome DNA 18x3.5 52 spoke front wheel on my 07 road king as soon as it left the showroom floor. In 07. The wheel still looks new. Just recently developed a slow leak on the air valve. The wheel bearings lasted 92,000miles. Everyone has them now soooo, I decided to go with a 19” chrome H-D Enforcer wheel with 11.8 rotors & the new CVO silver Brembo brakes. Couldn’t be happier.
I was gonna order the same wheel next week, looks like I better shop around. You are right, you pay good money for something it should be pristine condition
I have a 23" DNA wheel, it was the third one they got for me. And you had to beat the tier on with a rubber mallet, I couldn't use their break rotor, it,was,too large and the break caliper was rubbing on it. The wheel wouldn't turn, once the tire was on. The guy told me "IM NOT CHANGING THAT TIRE" Other,then that it looks good.
Something's doesn't add up with that ... I just came across your channel in my feed actually. I'm happy to support your efforts and those of other fellow moto content creators. I look forward to seeing and hearing more from you in the future ; keep up the great work and ride safe out there.
Sup Kat, thanks for watching, I make these vids more for me as a form of video Archives of what and why is daddy always in the shop (answering my kids questions) Stay safe bro!
All my stuff from DNA came together tire mounted on rim and balanced rotor And rear Polly placed on rim all in one package... Kind of seems like you ordered your stuff in separate orders not all-in-one that's why nothing came together.. I didn't have one problem with anything when I placed it on my bike.
If you read the description on there website it says the spokes are stainless not chrome like the rest of your wheel so they won't be as shinny as chrome they will have a stainless steel look .
It's sad you pay good money and they don't care. I should receive mine from dna on Monday. I ordered the black spoke with chrome nips on the end. 21 dna mammoth front and rear.
Ordered a set with the tire package and had nothing but a horrible experience. Got a vibration over 70 mph and the chrome peeled off. 3k for the set and it’s absolutely garbage. Save your money.
that wheel looks like it has had a tire mounted on it and removed. would explain the dullness of the chrome and all the finger prints. but yeah I would not call that brand new. that is factory refurb in my oppion.
Says a whole lot about their company for what obviously sending you a used wheel. They look like they been sitting on bike for a while. I would be mad as fuck for paying that much for that pos wheel. I think it was beautiful when the wheel was made but it just looks like it was sitting on a bike not being rode
HORRIBLE COMPANY! I ride an Indian Chieftain. Bought front and back rims. They sent me wheels drilled for Harley rotors. I was able to put the front one on because it was redrilled by DNA before they sent it to me. Indian has different hubs than Harley. So i was sold a factory defected wheel and charched full price. They lied, and eventually refused to send me a return label for the back wheel to be replaced. Paid $1700 for basically 1 faulted wheel. DO NOT USE THIS COMPANY. Do yourself a favor and read through Google Reviews. They will tell you all that you need to know
The edges are like that because it's a steel wheel. Aluminium wheels are smooth. The spokes are stainless, which you will appreciate later. Chrome spokes flake and pit. As for having smudges on the chrome 🤭 . You complain about nothing. I know where you can get a $3,000.00 front wheel and it's perfect. You bought a budget wheel. 🤓 just because 1k seems like a lot to YOU doesn't mean you got a bad wheel. 🤷♂️

Thanks for talking me out of ever using this company!
I didn't so anything, they did it to thermals themselves.
I was gonna order the same wheel next week, looks like I better shop around. You are right, you pay good money for something it should be pristine condition
Darn tuttn!

Other,then that it looks good.
Looks like someone returned that probably for same issues you found and they sent it to you
I'd be pissed. That packaging is half ass. The rim is damaged and in poor condition. I'd report them to BBB.

Did you keep it?
It's sad you pay good money and they don't care. I should receive mine from dna on Monday. I ordered the black spoke with chrome nips on the end. 21 dna mammoth front and rear.
Did you receive them yet? How was the condition?
Send it back immediately.
Send it back!😄
As he open it I say damn that looks clean and he says its dirty as hell. Lol
After further inspection! Shit happens in bars with girls, they look good until your get up close, then it's Damn!
Are you building pallets in there or what? I wonder if you can order wheels without the silicone an use a tube?
Look where its made and you have your answer.
China???
For a thousand bucks? No way Jose!

Mine look the same way the edge you can't see it cause the tire. And the spokes are stainless steel that's why they are dull.
Finger prints on it ? May of been taken out looked at then put back in the box , the not smooth it should be flawless for brand new send it back

Did you purchase from dna
Looks like it’s a “ return resell” send her back
I have one and the spokes leaks after three years
Doesn’t look good need to return to the vender I don’t like either
I bought a 18x5.5 and I unpacked the rim and it looked like it had a tyre fitted to it, very disappointed
ouff really.....fuck:(
Is that a 40 or 52 spoke
52

its prolly a polished wheel not chrome
wheel is chrome spokes are polished steel, hence he's seeing them less shiny than the wheel.
What they say what happened
The edges are like that because it's a steel wheel. Aluminium wheels are smooth. The spokes are stainless, which you will appreciate later. Chrome spokes flake and pit.

Give me link to the 3k wheel, anyone paying that kind of $ for a 21" is an idiot!
Sinister wheel sells them for that price. And they drag their fuckin feet
DNA products suck....brand new chrome sprocket for my ride started to pit and blister after 7 months.
ouff really!!! what's the fuck....:(((
Return to the vender bad condition I don’t like either
Long beach custom baggers
China’s for bikes 👍🏻
I didn't even pay for it, but I'm annoyed by this product.
Thats why I hate Chrome
