Good taste! Install them already.
i was going to buy them locally, but they wanted $1400 for rims & VERY cheap tires, plus mounting, balancing, installation, lug nuts, etc....

so i searched for other options, came across www.wheelsnext.com, i recommend them VERY highly. I ended up paying less than $1300, and they CAME mounted & balanced (with the weight mounted on the inside), with free lug nuts. they were also offering free lowering springs with every rim/tire purchase, but they did not have any for a 6th gen celica, only 2000 +. so yeah.... much cheaper, and shipping to canada was only $150. free shipping to anywhere in the states. they took 3 weeks to get here but that's just because of a delay at the border. overall i'm SUPER impressed though.


thanks everyone biggrin.gif
that's $1300USD right? so.. does that included duties/taxes/brokerage? what tires?

no that's canadian. my money order was for $1242.00 canadian. the duty & brokerage was $148.00 so after duty it was just less than $1400 canadian.

the tires that came with, you had a choice between kumho & nankang, i chose nankang.
damn that's pretty good price... my wheels + tires cost slightly over 1500cdn and that's w/o installation/mounting/balance (bought them separately)

and nice vry nice wheels btw

I just went to that site... and it says free shipping to US and Canada!!!

http://www.wheelsnext.com/default.cfm?acti...ntent&type=free

"Free FEDEX ground shipping from our facilities to your door on all mounted & balanced wheel and tire packages, including special and sale items. Free shipping only within the continental USA and Canada. Un-mounted wheel and tire packages are subject to shipping fees on tires only."
hmmm.... they must've just changed that. cause when i ordered mine at the end of april, i called in the order because if you're from canada it has to be a money transfer or money order, they don't accept canadian credit cards, and the guy said $150 to canada. oh well, i have mine and i'm happy, so i don't care. but that's sweet if it is free shipping to canada.
those rims look sweet, can't wait to see them on your car
