Best made in usa accessories
We have been working with Hutchinson (producer of the Rock Monster) for 3 years now and they do produce all of their wheels in the US. It is a fantastic product but the design does not appeal to all.
The best bet with wheels is support companies that produce the rest of their products in the US and only due to circumstances outside of their control do they turn to an overseas company to produce wheels.

It is incredibly difficult to find a wheel that is actually cast or machined inside of the US, besides one off designs from high end custom vehicle builders. It is kind of like the coffee cup or hats.

Been looking for a while and still haven't found that rim that jumps out and says buy me... might also be because I'm not ready to upgrade the tires just yet... but getting closer with every mile driven....
thanks
So I typed "usa" into quadratec and it looks like Black Rock Wheels are made in the US. Looks like there are 6 wheel sets in their line up that they sell in their line up made in the USA.
I bought the black rock d-windows cause I wanted something that looked like they belong on a trail rig. Nothing flashy or chrome. The center caps are cheap plastic though so I fabbed some new ones out of aluminum but they look nice without them.

All their products are made in the U.S.A.

List of their Products:
Axle C Gussets
Dash Utility Mounts
Evap. Canister Relocation
Seat Mounted Extinguisher
Mirror Brackets
Seat Retainers
I got my mirror brackets last week...great quality....great product. The ironic thing was, I decided to buy some additional cheap Chinese knock off OEM mirrors, so I didn't have to take my original door mirrors on/off to use the brackets. The Cheap Chinese Knock off mirrors I got looked very similar to the OEM mirrors, but were not built to OEM measurement/specs, because I had to grind down the mounting posts on them, since they didn't quite fit into the hole diameter of the Die-Tech mirror brackets. I took off my OEM mirrors and sure enough, they fit right into the Die-Tech brackets like they were supposed to. So the Chinese crap was out of spec. as I often find, where I had to do additional work, pulling out a dremel and grinding the metal posts down on the mirrors, so they fit properly.
