Default Finally ordered my wheels from wheel guyz

I finally picked a set of wheels and ordered them today. Hopefully I will get them in a couple weeks. But the guy I taked to said I was the 4th order for an XB today.

Wheelguys was very cool, not the cheapest, but atleast I didn't have to listen to the rude ___ phone people at wheelsnext. Well worth a few extra bucks. We'll see how it goes from here, but I have heard good things about wheelguyz here and other places.

:twisted: :twisted: My "out of stock will take at least 2 weeks before we ship them" wheels arrived in 3 days in good condition. I'll try and post some pics of them on the car this weekend. I bought 18's HP Racing Evos Chrome. They weigh a ton, but they look good, so I don't care. here's a pic.

Well I installed my wheels this morning, in the rain, I couldn't wait. I am very happy with the wheels and wheelguyz. I diffently recommend them both. My only complaint is how dirty the wheels were when they arrived. The wheels are 8x7.5, ET with 215/35/r18 nankang tires. No issues with rubbing at all with them, even at full lock both directions. IMHO the wheels really set the car off, but I need springs BADLY now. Got alot of looks on the way to work this morning. Stoped at Burger King, an older guy driving an H2 nearly hit a parked car, looking at my car If I can get some pics I'll post them tnite or tomarrow.

I'm glad you liked wheelguyz.com. I bought my wheels from them last month. I was posting praise for them all over Scionlife. They should send me a extra set for representing them :D I bought the BSA c2, basically a knocked off of the Racing Hart c2 wheels. $649 w/ tires shipped could not be beat Check my profile for the look. Yes, I know that I need a drop.

Chino - The chrome would look awesome against white !

Before you order them, do you know anyone who has a shop that would allow you to order them for his shop - I am scared at what you will be paying from that company ...

I never could find a local shop that could even come close on the price of any of the internet dealers. I would have bought locally if I could have, but it was a $200 difference on at least 4 different wheels.

I took some pics but they came out crappy so I didn't post them, hopefully I can get some decent ones by this weekend and post them.

Yea, I went with the chrome 18" as well. But they gave me the Wanli tires and had to charge me tax cause they're located here in FL. But at least shipping should be fast. :D I've always liked the mesh look. So soon as I seen the Mini Cooper with these in their gallery........ I had to have them! :twisted: As for local dealers I couldn't find any..........
