Alrighty then...just went with 4whlprts...486 total for four, instead of five.

 

Yes, the 4WP deal is better providing you have a local 4WP store to get FREE shipping and only pay tax ($33-43).

With the PP deal, each wheel is slightly cheaper but you still pay shipping which will be around $60-75.

 

What are they charging for shipping to Louisville?
$486 had me confused...until I discovered you guys don't have a 4WP store in your states (not missing anything) and I doubt PP has a "warehouse".
If that's the case, buying 5 wheels using the PP discount will be the better deal: 5 wheels $550.00~ shipped and 4 wheels $450~ shipped to your door step.
Punch, ThunderOne, anyone else, let me know if you missed out on the 4WP sale and I'll shoot you contact info for the PP discount.
It's $95 per wheel + shipping ($65-85?). I've done enough math for the day/night. My brain is shutting down.

 

about $90...and I decided to err on the safe side (financially) since my wife is out blowing cash for the holidays.

What part # did you guys get? Hub centric or no?

 

yes, that's exactly what I was thinking, because I'm going to have to pay shipping either way, so I figured going with PP would be a better deal. I'm getting 4 wheels and not 5 though, is that still okay?

 

Very nice of you all to put this together. Nicely done and excellent communication all along the way.

Wish I could use these-I love the 'swiss cheese' look on wheels ever since my 84 Mazda 626 (Touring Sedan 5 dr) had them.

 

4wp told me they expect them on the 8th of Dec so at least they are consistent...

 

Looks like 4WP extended their 20% off sale to December 1st! hahahaha

 

Okay so I have been crunching some numbers:

Performance Products is having a "buy 3 get 1 free" sale, so the total for 4 wheels comes out to be about $401. The guy that Erik talked to said he will take off about $20 off that price (which is actually about $5 off per wheel) to make it $380 for a set of 4 wheels. Add shipping (to my location is $59.80) and you get a total of $439.80.

4 Wheel parts still has their 20% off sale till Dec 1st, and the total for 4 wheels is $387.05 + a whopping $98.95 for shipping. Grand Total here is $486.

So, Erik, you still ended up saving money by going through 4WP. But the rest of us that need our wheels shipped, the price difference will be $7.05 (with PP being the better deal) for your subtotal. After you add the shipping to both companies, you end up saving about $46 by going with Performance Products.

 

Rocket, can you please PM that contact info for PP?

 

Thanks for the kind words Ron.

yep, the PP deal is better if local pick up isn't an option. I was surprised to see 4WP put their sale back on.

okay, I ordered why wheels through PP, which is affiliated with 4WP. Everyone check your orders on the 8th to see if your wheels have been processed.

 

also ordered black caps and lug nuts from Wheeler's. If you guys don't want chrome caps and lugs, it'd be a good idea to do the same. Don't get powdercoated lugs! The coating will EASILY flake off.

 

Dumb question but does anyone know how much one of these in 15x8 weigh? Thanks

 

check www.procompwheels.com/alloywheels.html

 

Thanks Thunder. Not bad only 20 lbs.

 

Are these the hub centric or non hub centric?

 

They make both. You want non-hub centric...the hub centric version will not fit.

If you, gtfour43, or anyone wants these wheels with a very nice discount from PerformanceProducts, send me a PM for the info. The discount can be applied to other sizes as well.

 

is it to late to get in on this? i want five for my 85 land cruiser.

 

nope. there's still time.
