Dirt Cheap RIMS
Check out this website. Dirt cheap rims, get 18's for $499. I wanna know if anyone got wheels from these guys? 2 year war. on chrome. Someone buy from these guys so you can give me your opinion on the wheels. Just another knock off wheel company, that's all it is.

They are pretty cheap, but they don't mention a thing about shipping.. Or perhaps they do, but I didn't see it. anyways, I'd expect them to rape you on shipping costs in order to make up for their low prices. If shipping is reasonable, you should definitely try getting your rims here. Thanks for finding this website

Overall Diameters don't match 4 Max- on their specified "package" tire/wheel deals
Make sure if you buy a wheel/tire package from them, you can get correct sized tires to match OEM O.A.D.
17" wheels = P225/50 R17 (or) P235/45 R17
18" wheels = P235/40 R18 (or) P245/35 R18
The sizes they list on the site as available for the wheel/tire "packages" do not match what you need to retain the overall diameter for speedo/odo accuracy.

I would ask where they are made. I used to live in Asia for a while. There were problems with rims cracking and falling off for some of the rims made in China and Taiwan. I would definitely ask where thay are made. Wouldn't want that to happen now would we?

BTW - Anyone know what the proper offset is for 17" wheels on a '95?

okay guys
The website is not THAT bad... Yes, it's very simple and stuff, but there are way worse sites out there selling stuff. I have nothing but respect for Greg but do you want to tell me that custommaxima.com is an amazing website? I think it's good for what it is, it's simple and easy to read. Straight to the point, no un-needed bullsh*t.
Now the idea that it's not heard of and the prices sound even lower then distributors probably get them for.. that scares me. I can buy those wheels and re-sell them for double the price. 20s, no matter what kind they are should not cost 1,200$. period.
If it's legit, me and this guy will be doing business soon
