Title: Alloy Wheel Procurement
Post by: Strat on January 12, 2011, 10:17:32 pm

Hey

Can people point me in the direction of the best places I investigate about ordering some alloy wheels? where do you normally buy them?

Specifically BBS CH Blacks.

I know they've gone under for the time being, but want to try and find a set whilst I potentially still can.

Also, what sort of price should I be expecting to pay. Don't want to get ripped off, would be good to know what to expect.

Thanks!  :happy2:

Performance Alloys are usually the cheapest place.

Thinking of trying rimstyle, but in their fitment options they only list 18" for the MkV when I want 19"... should I just give them a ring?
