Default Brand new pony's in the box

Just bought 4 new pony wheels for 79 thru 93 cars. These are supposed to be brand new but the edge around the inside of the wheels are less than defined. Was the casting on these that bad. They are from ford racing.
Thanks T

Sounds like you got a set of "knock Off's" from China

Thanks Max. The wheels came in Ford racing boxes and have the proper #s cast in them aswell as the ford logo. is it possible it was just a late casting? Anyway thanks

If they came in ford boxes they better be Ford, call the place you bought them from and tell them they are poorly cast... don't accept junk. you paid for new wheels
