Just for kicks....pics!
Some of you may remember me posting about buying wheels a few weeks back. Well, i decided against used wheels and just went all out.
I do not have pictures of the new wheels yet, they're going on tomorrow. What i have below is two pics of my current setup (newly washed), and a third is a photochopped version of my truck with what the wheels SHOULD look like.
They are American Racing Atlas 160's if anyone is interested.
I got Polished Alloy... The ones in the picture are a little shinier than the actual ones will be.... polished alloy isn't quite THAT blinding!
Sears agreed to honor and BEAT internet price!!! I got the wheels for $89 a piece! They should have been $140 from Sears... They also threw in the lug nuts and caps for FREE because that's what the internet deal specified! (That was $35 normally). On top of all this, because i had lifetime balance of my tires (bought from Sears) they're only charging $5/wheel to mount/balance the new wheels.
Unbelievable!!!
Anyway, it was a great deal, so check out the preview. I'll post pics of the REAL results when i have them. (and when the weather improves)

Those are nice looking rims.
What website did you find those on for $89? Did you take a print-out to Sears so they would beat it. I would like to try that here.
Thanks!

He said that was fine, but he would have to include the price of shipping in the total. NO PROBLEM, i said!
Here is the site:
www.wheelsforless.com
So, i found the wheels, and took the printout in the next day and he honored it! Awesome!
I think i forgot to mention shipping in my initial post. Shipping is $55 from that site above. So he took that all into account (including the fact that wheelsforless.com includes lugs and caps for free) and i am happy with the outcome.
