Default Affordable Wheels

Anybody know a good site to order wheels and tires that are affordable. Affordable meaning in the range of 1300 usd. I been searching this site and seen some amazing sets but they are too xpensive for my income. Can't seem to find any site names.

I've been looking at www.wheelmax.com and they have some good deals. What do you guys think of Exel rims and are they long lasting quality? THey seem pretty decent as in Maryland, rims either get jacked or scratched pretty fast.

yeah, should have used the classified section but I wanted to get responses from users. Anyone who has bought rims from a dealer and was satisfied?

By the way, your car looks pimpin.

yes, we do have classified section. But I wanted to get feedback from users and the vendors they used to get the wheels. How was the service, quality, shipping time, etc.

Street Sports and Bulletproof are excellent, but they don't sell anything in that price range. I've also dealt with Tire Rack, they too are excellent and might have sometthing you'd like. I would avoid Wheelmax like the plague

I bought all 4 of my race wheels for $900 shipped from Discount Tire Direct. I had a problem that I caused by ordering a size that actually didn't fit my Track model and they totally took care of me.

Raceboy, that price that you put up is for Wheels ONLY or wheels AND tires??? I am looking for some cheap autoX wheels, and the cheapest I can figure with tires is about 1200-1300.

How is R1-Racing Wheels reputation? They have some nice designs, but don't want to buy something with bad reputation. Thanks

I bought from TireRack and they are great to do business with, but you better know what you want before you deal with them...such as what will fit you're car and everything. I dealt with them years ago. But I heard that they have a search now where you can enter your car and even it's color and it will find wheels that will fit your car great for you. I don't know about their prices now....hope you find some in your range.

Good Luck....

Anyone knows if the Racing Hart Evolution/ single piece will fit a Z?
Is it true that only multi-piece RH will fit the Z?
