rim shops near bayville
About 2 1/2 weeks ago i ordered torque thrust m's from a local rim shop tronix, they needed a 750 dollar down payment witch was fine. But they called me today after not answering my calls for days and being completelyun aware of anything. I walked in today and they told me only 3 arrived and the last will take another week and a half to arrive?! I am furious. Before i get my money back is there any places that are reliable around.here

I got mine from Tire Rack with the tires mounted and balanced. Payed on Monday. Rims and tires delivered on Friday. I got TTM's 17x9 front and 17x10.5 for the rear with 275/40/17s on all 4 corners for like $1600.

1600 with the tires included? I payed 850 for 245 up and 275 rear, plus the ttm's are costing 1175 with balance. N mounting + tax.

Yep, tires mounted and balanced for free. Took the Hawk up to triple digits no vibration what so ever. 245/45/17s are gonna look a bit small for the fronts. And actually the 275/40/17s in the back don't fill out the entire rim so I'm going with 315/35/17 in a couple weeks.

I chose the tire. I was running BFG KDW's and they got extremely noisy at like 80 mph. Got this like waaaawaaaawaaa sound that was driving me insane after like 5K and the tread was cracking. I got Sumitomo HTR Z III. Got good reviews and was hella cheap

May I ask why you're opposed to purchasing online?

Tronix is the only place that I can think of that would have anything in stock. Almost all shops don't stock parts anymore and they just order it. Like everyone else said, online is your best bet. Tire Rack is probably the cheapest place I've seen, besides eBay.
