Default What did you do???

So yeah I have the money for my wheels..18x8 rota p1's off of machiii.net will cost me $700...I'm debating on ordering the wheels now so I can at least have them (even thought I don't have much room for them lol) or if I should wait till I could get the tires for them at the same time?

What did you guys do? Wheels first - tires shortley thereafter? or Wheels and tires same day?

I can get the tires within the next few weeks and I figure since machiii uses paypal once everything is processed (3-5 days) shipping will take a week or so so they'll probably be sitting around only for a few days?

lol I'm just asking cause I've been waiting a long time for my wheels and I want them now dag nabbit!

Unless you've got a hook-up at a tire shop, it will be cheaper to do it all together online. When you buy packages, the mounting/balancing is almost always free. Tires are usually cheaper online. And sometimes shipping is free too.

I was looking into those Rotas for a long time. I thought the Tarmac 3s would look a lot better on the tC than the P1s. The best place to buy Rota packages is at http://www.wheeldude.com. They'll ship for free if you ask.

machiii.net has free shipping as well but wheeldude doesn't seem to have the color i want which is the sports bronze.

I was probably going to go to americas tire for tires for free rotations and balancing..at least thats what i've heard they offer if you buy from them..cause face it..i'm lazy lol

edit: never mind..turns out the color i want isn't offered in 5x100..I can get them special ordered but it can take 3months+ to get them
