Most wheels are made in China now ( Moto Metal, KMC, American Racing, Foose to name a few) except for some of the expensive forged wheels. Eagle/Boss wheels are still made in the USA and they are very inexpensive. Fikse, Weld and Centerline are also made in the USA. Most of the OEM wheels are made in China or Korea. I would rather have a wheel made here but just because it's made in China or Korea doesnt mean it's junk.

This is from the AE site:
American Eagle Wheel operates two manufacturing facilities in the U.S., one in California and the second in South Carolina.
My question is, what AE wheels are of Chinese manufacture? I see no little U.S. flags anywhere. I'd always prefer to buy U.S.A. made myself, but its often hard to know; pretty well hidden at times.
