It's not the finish I'm unhappy about. It's the fact my wheels have a blue/gray tint to them. Compared to ProLine, AKA, Hot Bodies, and TLR wheels these are way off...

Are all Mono wheels like this or did I get a "bad" set?

This concern would probably be best addressed via email.

The bodies already started shipping this week. Wheels and front axles are available trackside during next weeks JConcepts Clash and will start shipping the end of this month.

We do have Hazard white wheels for the SC10, but our website pulls the part off if it thinks we are out of stock. I will get it updated and this will be fixed by the end of the year .

We redesigned the front axles for the AE B4, T4, and SC10 to eliminate the use of the "c-clip". You can see the T4 axle in our latest vid for the T4 hop-ups....click here

I dyed the first set blue but on my next body I'm wanting to go with white as the main color but with the wheels wing so off-white it won't look good. Not sure if I just got a bad set or if they all have a off-white look to them...
Your not alone.

I have a bunch of Rulux wheels that are the same way.

If he wants replacements sure. If there's an obvious issue why hide it by only sending an email.

FYI, I use a lot of JC products so it's not like I'm bashing them.

The new Mono series of wheels have a matte finish that does indeed take away from the brightness of the wheels and they will not match any other manufactures white, but the consistence should be very good front to rear and or package to package. If that's not the case and the wheel is clearly a bluish/grey color, then you may have received bad wheels and an e-mail directly to JConcepts will get you the most prompt and proper action.

I emailed customer support and that's just the color that JConcepts calls "Bright White". Offered to switch for yellow but I hate yellow more than off white.

No big deal...

I'll keep using JConcepts tires but not their rims.
