Best place to buy HP Racing Evo's?

I have been searching everywhere for these wheels including ebay and it seems they are sold out almost everywhere. I was hoping someone could help me find a dealer that stocks these rims at a good price. I'm looking for either 18x8 but preferably 19x8.5". They use to be called Evo but now there called New Lightning. Heres what the rims look like:

I think "maxedup" was selling these in a group deal or something but not sure if he has anymore.

Yeah, "big h" has a group deal on them right now. He's located in Canada which would be better for me since no duties/brokerage fees but I've decided to get a different set of rims instead. Reason is b/c I've heard you need spacers in order for the center caps to fit on the maxima. Or you could hammer the center hub which I dont want to do.

Here's big h's website:

This center cap not fitting is something I too have just stumbled across from the GB post by spanishrice. I am including 2- 1/4" spacers for the front free of charge.

Hey guys, hammering the center hub is not a big thing, I had to do it when I switch my stocker for the MTW GTV's, the technician was installing the wheel and we then find out it was too tight, it is just the cap that cover the bearing that need to be hammered, it's been 2 years now and no problem since we did this.

Cheers

Hey Harry, the money will be on it's way early next week. As for the spacer, is it only require in front, cuz I want to put 18 x 9 in the rear and I would hate to have to roll the fender to make it fit, specially with 265-40-18 rubber.

Let me know what you think.

Cheers
