Default Ready To Buy: Needed some Input

I've decided what wheels I want to purchase and needed some input as to where you guys buy your wheels. I'm looking for a good price, good customer service and quick shipping.

The wheels im interested in:

Enkei RP03 Type RC
http://www.enkei.com/RacingSeriesSpecs/RPO3trc.html

Gram Lights T57 RC
http://www.gramlights.com/wheels/t57rc/index.htm

I know I want an 18 inch wheel but I'm not sure about widths... I want the widest I can fit in the front that can accomodate a 245 width or 255 (does this fit) tire. In the rear I want something like a 9.5 or 10 inch that can accomodate 275 width tires.

Agreed get a set of tires from them as well and get your tires mounted and balanced for free and don't worry about a local shop messing that up.

I just contacted Robert at DTD. He'll be sending me info on the Enkeis but he said hey doesn't carry Gram Lights. If you can get me the GLs please PM me with the following info: Price, Weight.

Best Regards,

Gus

I've always been very fond of rays, I say go with the gramlights, but if you want to be different go with the enkei's. Both very nice rims.

I am also biased towards anything made by Rays, so I too say get the Gram Lights. They look a lot "cleaner" than the Enkeis, IMO.

Well, the prices weren't what I expected. Tire Rack has a better list price than DTD's call in price on the 57s. So I'll be shopping around some more, are there any retailers/shops that you guys would recommend for lower prices.
