anyone looking for a rim website...check this out!

http://www.wheelexcellence.esmartweb.com/

here is a quote from their site:

"All prices are for 4 rims with Kumho tires mounted.
We will not charge shipping or tax within the U.S. and Canada!!"

tell me is this too good to be true...

The catalogued rims for sale all look like styles rarely offered in anything wider than 7". If you want a skinnier wheel, then these are very reasonable deals (19" Velox w tires shipped for less than a grand is a "VERY REASONABLE DEAL" in my book)

I'll fork over a couple hundred more to get better wheels.

Good prices, but i would look into whether they are legit or not.
I mean, any f00 with a computer can stick up a website and offer good prices.
There's no address or phone # for their store/etc( they must have a base somewhere) and they have a yahoo email address.

Otherwise, good prices

For some reason, the number of pop-ups disturbs me.

It seem shady that they can't afford their own web servers...

"I just need to ask some questions, before I spend $1000s...Where abouts
are you located? How long has your company been around? And, normally,
businesses have their own website, and yours appears to be at
yahoo(free) with alot of pop ups. Also, on your website their is no
information about your company other than it it offering prices well
below retailers (at wholesale prices). Please do not take this as an
attack, but this seems too good to be true, and it would ease my
thoughts to get some information on your company. thanks harry."

I have a feeling that I missed something...anyways what do you all think?

just ask where they are located and if you can pick the wheels up. I gaurantee they will tell you no

i dont know any type of 19" wheel you can get for under $1000 shipped with tires no matter the brand or width. that site is bogus

I'm pretty sure he would HAVE to charge tax on sales in his home state. So, unless he's an offshore company (which probably wouldn't offer free shipping), it sounds even more bogus.
