I bought some rims from them about 3 years ago. They can order just about any rim that you want. As far as price goes, I would check a few places to see who has the best price and warranty.

I think discoutn tire has a price matching guarantee meaning that whatever price someone sells it at they will match it or beat it[IMG]i/expressions/face-icon-small-smile.gif[/IMG] THey didthat for my moms Bridgestone tires[IMG]i/expressions/face-icon-small-smile.gif[/IMG]

I got my Tantrums for $130 per from the internet. At the store they were $145 or something but I had the guy go online and match the price. I also had him do the same for my Yokohamas. I saved money on both. Check out Discount Tire

ok if you really want a good deal and live in the valley. Call Mikes Tire Co. i think it is. They have the best prices in the area i think. Then go to America Tire Co. and they will match the price and they will order you any rims. They are very fast and easy to deal with. I got a set of Enkei CDR-9's and am happy. Hope this helps

I got my 17" Enkei CDR-9 rims for $130 each, and my 215-40-ZR17 Nitto NT450 tires for $96 each. I got the wheels at a store down here, and I ordered the tires online at tires.com they were cheaper on the net than in the store even with shipping. But I didn't ask them if they would match the internet price at the store. I'm assuming they would. Well, I have had good business with them and I recommend them. laterz

Hmmm i had a question, does Discount Tires or America Tires CO. do they charge also for shipping? Or is it just the same ordering from them as ordering from online? And do they include tax or not?

When I got my wheels, they had to be sent from a store in Scottsdale, so they charged me shipping, but they split it with me, so it was like $13 or something like that. It doesn't include taxes either.

Thats still not too bad!! I wonder if they can match with Groupbuycenter prices!!! If so i might as well get it from them since theyll hopefully include lugs, valve stems, and mounting included[IMG]i/expressions/face-icon-small-smile.gif[/IMG]

The mounting and balancing should be included, but you have to pay extra for the stems and locking lugs. the stems are like $1 and the lugs are I think $2 or so each.
