Where does /o/ buy its wheels from. I was looking at tirerack, but their prices seem a little too low. Are they legit. Any reccomendation?

Tire rack is probably the most reputable site you can buy from...
I bought my wheels used off zilvia
Everything on my car is straight out the junkyard
>tfw a set of summer tires for 50$ feels good
tire rack is a scam site all their wheels are fake chinese crap
>>13904676
Craigslist, because I only tend to like OEM Subaru wheels, and WRX owners seem to almost always immediately get rid of their stock wheels for volk te37s

>>13904711
conflicting opinions, why?
>>13904757
Idiocy. Tire Rack is not a scam site.
>>13904676
Never bought wheels from them, but I've purchased tires many times and they are genuine.
>>13904759
>>13904700
Okay, that helps allot, because their prices are pretty good
Direct from the manufacturer..
tire rack is god tier, but keep in mind all their prices exclude
>cost to ship to your house
>cost to mount/balance tires on wheels
>>13904676
They are a reputable purveyor of tires and wheels. Have ordered tires dozens of times from them and 2 sets of wheels. Easy as pie.
Alright, I've had enough of this shit and it's time to clear some of this bullshit up for you twats.
tire + rim = wheel
wheel - tire = rim
wheel - rim = tire
rim = what tires are mounted on
wheel = combination of rim and tire

I wonder how you function in real life with this amount of retardation
>>13904893
A wheel is a wheel, a tire is a tire. Put them together and you have the "wheel and tire assembly". The rim is just the outer edge of the wheel.
>>13904919
You're joking right?
You mount tires on rims not wheels.
>>13904893
Yup, you got it right
>>13904864
What's the cost to mount and balance them typically cost?
>>13904930
See pic
>>13904939
It seems you're talking about split rims/multi-piece wheels, not single piece wheels like on passenger cars.

4chan ate my pic
tire rack is a scam, none of the tires they sell are real
nobody's ever heard of 'goodyear' or 'michelin', those are fake brands made up by faggots
>>13904954
Nope. Everything from the hub to the lip which the tire mounts on is considered the rim. Rim and tire together, that is a wheel.
As far as the DOT is concerned.
>>13904961
Everything in that picture is the rim
>>13904965
I rock firestones
I love the feeling that at any moment I might have a blowout
>>13904975
we're not talking about trucks you """""""""trucker""""""""
>>13904934
at a local tire place i got
>old tires removed from winter wheels
>new tires mounted on winter wheels
>all road force balanced
for $60
>>13904893
this is the generally accepted definition, and the one that almost everyone will agree with except semantics nazis like

I'm not a "Trucker", I just drive trucks. And it's the same thing with car wheels. We aren't talking about bicycles here. That is another story.
