I took a look at what www.bigwheels.net had to offer. I compared the deal I got for rims/tires/mount & balancing at a local wheel shop with what bigwheels had to offer and found bigwheels to be a total of about $100 more.
It just goes to show you that not everything is always cheaper online.

Smilygo, check out Auto Innovations in Milpitas... They can hook you up with wheels and tires at a good price and they are easy to deal with.

Default I went to Auto Innovation

Guys, thank you for your suggeston! I went to Auto Innovation and was very pleased with their service so far. Steven is really plesant to deal with. He had to order tires for me, but didn't even ask for deposits. I will report the final impression after I get my wheels and tires within the next few days. So far, I strongly recommend Auto Innovation to anyone who lives in SF/Bay Area. Hope my recommendation won't change in few days.

It won't, and you'll be pleased. If not, Gabe and I will raise heck w/ Steve and Orlando. Maybe AI should be re-named Scion Central!
