Took about 6 weeks for my wheels to come sea freight from Japan to FL, it can take longer than that some times. So youd be knocking that time off.
Sorry for all the questions just trying to drcide if the extra 1K is worth paying.

6weeks in all or month wait(to make wheels) then an additional 6 weeks for shipping.

Exactly, depending on how long it takes the wheels to make will be around the wait before you get. The difference between air freight and shipping container, is that air freight will ship just one set of wheels on plane. It is a shorter wait time because with the typical shipping container that has to wait to be filled up with other wheels/items and then shipped by sea. Saves a ton on shipping costs. So your wheels may be done in 6 weeks, but they will sit on a container until that container gets filled. If that makes sense.
