Default What is the best online dealer to buy rims from?

I've been shopping for rims for a few months now. I've finally figured out the specific rims I want purchase. I'm having a hard time distinguishing which online retailers are trustworthy and good to do business with and which are not. Literally everyone i find a good price and right before I make an order, I look at the companies reviews and its always 100s and 100s of HORRIBLE SCAM STORIES. So who has bought rims here and who can you recommend that's not selling them overpriced. For example Discounwheelwarehous ; F- rating with the BBB, thousands of ripped off customers. 4wheelonline, same story. PLEASE HELP ME I NEED MY NEW TIRES ON MY TRUCK YESTERDAY

Discount Tire Direct, hands down. Call them, they can get you any wheel / tire and combo that you want and give you a better price than they list online. I have used them for 12, yes, 12 wheel or tire purchases. All have gone off without a single issue. Once had a issue with some Cooper tires, they replaced all 4, even though I didn't buy replacement certificates. Great company!!

I was excited to read this response and immediately went to their website. Unfortunately it looks like I don't carry the brand I'm looking for. I'm trying to get a set of Mayhem Wheels

They didnt sell the wheels I bought either. I called them and they told me they could get any wheel I wanted. I also paid $70 less per wheel than any advertised price online. Like I said, CALL THEM.

I had an extremely positive experience with CarID. I buy a lot from them, wide variety of products and quick shipping and response time. Bought my Fuel Mavericks there

While this may be true as far as the service, you pay out of the *** through Carid. Every single wheel I've been interested in I've looked at Carid and their prices have literally been at the very minimum $100 more than literally every other place online . That's what I was talking about when I said overpaying . Sure Carid is an authorized dealer and you can trust them,,, but that's if you want to pay well above what any other store or business dare asks for the same exact product .

This pains me to think how much money I've given discount tire direct but.....

I've gone through discount tire direct for every tire purchase since 2009 and I've bought several sets of tires costing $1500-$2000 and even more expensive wheels. I've called them and requested wheels they don't advertise and just like Summers22 said, they were able to get whatever I wanted for cheaper than anywhere else. I won't go anywhere else as long as they keep up their current customer service, great prices and incredibly fast shipping.

I only shop discounttiredirect.com because the customer service is top notch and the prices are unbeatable.
