Every order is handled with care, packaged securely, and shipped through trusted carriers with full tracking.

Carrier delays (weather, routing, volume) are outside our control
Some shipments may require a signature

Our goal is simple: a smooth, transparent delivery from our facility to your door.


IN-STOCK WHEELS

When a wheel is listed as IN STOCK, it ships fast.

Processing Time: 1–2 business days

Typical Transit Times:

Midwest: 1–3 days
East Coast: 2–4 days
South: 2–4 days
West Coast: 4–6 days

Tracking is emailed immediately after shipment.


BUILT-TO-ORDER WHEELS

Cutthroat Forged wheels produced on demand require time to ensure perfect machining, precision, and finish quality.

Production Time: 6–8 weeks

Includes:

CNC machining
Deburring
Polishing or finish work
Full inspection
Packaging & prep

We do not rush the process — accuracy and quality always come first.


COMMERCIAL SHIPPING RECOMMENDED

For the fastest delivery, we strongly recommend shipping to a commercial address.

Benefits:

Faster freight movement
Fewer delays
Earlier delivery windows
Better handling
Reduced risk of failed deliveries

If you want the fastest shipping time, a commercial address is best.


RESIDENTIAL SHIPPING

Residential delivery is available but may increase transit time depending on the carrier.

Liftgate service is required and adds a fee.

If you do not have a commercial address available, we can ship to:

A freight terminal (pickup)
Your preferred wheel & tire dealer
Any shop or business you trust

These options are typically faster and more reliable than home delivery.


FASTEST DELIVERY OPTIONS

To get your wheels as quickly as possible, choose one of these:

Commercial address
Freight terminal pickup
Local wheel & tire dealer delivery

All three greatly reduce delays.


ADDITIONAL SHIPPING INFORMATION

Accurate Address Required
Incorrect or incomplete addresses may delay your shipment or cause carrier fees.

Inspection on Delivery
Inspect boxes and wheels before signing.
If damage is present, note it with the driver and take photos immediately.

Re-Delivery Fees
If no one is available during delivery (especially for residential freight), the carrier may bill a redelivery fee.

Freight Handling
Forged wheels are heavy and may arrive in oversized boxes or on pallets.
Ensure your receiving location can accept freight.


ADDRESS VERIFICATION & EXTRA FEES

If a commercial address is selected at checkout but the carrier identifies it as residential, your wheels will not ship until required residential/liftgate fees are paid.

Carriers bill based on actual delivery type, not what is selected during checkout.

To avoid delays:

Use a verified commercial address
OR
Ship to a freight terminal, dealer, or shop


DAMAGED SHIPMENTS

If your order arrives with visible damage:

Refuse delivery
Take clear photos of damage and packaging
Email us immediately at:
(513) 202-3026 EXT 2 — orders@cutthroatforged.com

Include:

Tracking number
Your full name
Order number

We will open a carrier claim and guide you through the process.
