Am I paying too much for these wheels?
#1
Local shop here in Tampa wants $6200 for:
20x10 - 285/25/20
20/8.5 - 245/30/20
wrapped in PZeros
He also wants another "$50 to $75" per wheel to have them painted black. I could have swore those wheels came in black from the factory, but he says only 18s and 19s do, not 20s.
Seems a little high. Any suggestions?

Do a search on Madio RT5. You'll turn up much info.

Check with Charles at WheelAutohaus, www.wheelautohaus.com
He was great to work with and his pricing was very good on my wheel and tire package.

I was also told by several shops that the RT5 does not come in black for size 20s, only 19s. Even so, I'm sure they can be custom painted and the price should still be lower than what you were quoted.
I would try Charles at WheelAutohaus. He quoted me $5,260 for the Maya DLS (20x9, 20x10 with 245/35/20 and 275/30/20 Potenza SO3s) so the RT5 shouldn't be much more even if it has to be custom painted.
Two other places you can try are www.wheeltech.com and www.usatireandwheeloutlet.com. I bought wheels for my MDX through USA Tire and Wheel and they were consistently about $500-$700 cheaper than Super Buy Tires.
Good luck!
