I am going to get either 17" velox vx8 or konig absolutes in gunmetal. So far ive looked at wheelmax and cbwheels.com. I am looking for a wheel and tire package. Which would u recomend on ordering from? Which has better service? Also name another site that you have had a good expirence with. Thanks

 

Eh...gonna put this into general since it's as much about shops as it is about wheels. Yeah, I know...grey area.

 

www.tires.com.....fast shipping....4 warehouses....youre always somewhere close

www.tires.com

 

Yeah, tires.com also known as America's Discount Tire Co. I got my 17 in. 5Zigen's from them with tires. They are a little more expensive then most companies, not much, but their service and warranty program with tires is unparalled. Not to mention there is a store almost everywhere in the U.S. so if you ever need a new tire or something, you don't need to wait as long.

 

Well this is what i did and saved some money, bought brand new wheels off of ebay, price matched tires at sears. Had wheels and tires installed at sears. total for 17's and 215/40-17 $900 bucks. Its worth a try to still look your wheels up on ebay, WOW those are expensive, here is a link for velox http://search-desc.ebay.com/search/s...y&BasicSearch=

 

Being the smart guy that I am I forgot to provide two links.

I do believe Whalen Tire has their Konig Absolutes (gunmetal, even) discounted right now.

 

has anyone purchased or know anyone who has purchased rims thru Wheelmax.com. If so were there any problems or are they a recommendation for purchasing rims?

 

Wheelmax they were cool. Got here on time, they fit, good price. Like 1000 bucks for 17"s w/tires a hundred of that was shipping. Good customer service. Dont let them put Z rated tires on your rims, no warranty, found that out the hard way.
