actually their are 2 dealers that are in the US that offer 25% off + no sales tax...

one is located in Rhode Island

the other is located in Minnesota:

If you can time it right, you could have the wheels shipped to whichever US city you will be in....


GL with your search....

I'm in Orlando and have yet to find a place here which are "priced good". Everyone has their prices high cause they are local and most people here are impatient and would pay the price to have them that day instead of ordering elsewhere and waiting for them to arrive. There may be more variety of dealers down in Miami/West Palm area, but not 100% sure. Good luck hunting...

I have had customers that have spent thousands of dollars with these people and have gotten horrible service and every single thing sold to them has been way over list price. :thumbsdown:

Just order them from Garry in Newport (other threads) and have them mailed to your location for about $100 extra.

Same thing with the tires, just order them from tirerack.com, and have them mailed to you.

I live here in FL, and I simply just order my stuff by mail.

They are pretty good about getting the stuff sent and received within a 1-2 day window.

Dera nevrev73,

The $ is now cheap but so is the ?.

Note that you have to pay taxes, if you buy the rims outside of the EU.

See this German site!
