Where are the wheel sales ?!

[Muhnopoly]

Trying to buy some wheels and tires in the next few days.
Been eye balling LMR r357 19x10 square with nittos but they don't have any sales going on?
Trying to stick in that price range around 2500 or lower with tpms and everything mounted. Anyone have a coupon code?
Vendors, have anything similar to that price range? I'm firm about 19x10 square with offset at minimum 35-45

Not to make things political, but COVID has been used as an excuse to rake prices up on just about anything. Prices are at a premium and it’ll be hard to find discounts anywhere.

Just ask for quotes from multiple different vendors and see who gives you the best quote. When I bought my wheels, Get Your Wheels was really the only vendor that bothered to answer my questions and gave me the best price quote. Id recommend them.

aint that right. I just sold out a ton of crap I bought 4 years ago on sales (like tool kits etc) I cleared my garage out last few weeks, and I sold everything ABOVE WHAT I PAID from 4 years ago. CRAZY times when people rush to buy a used item for more than I paid 4 years ago. but its still cheaper than new.

I just priced out insulation today, the raw material is up 110% of what it was 2 years ago when I last insulated my attic in garage.



Wheels, spring is here, usually within next month or so is when deals happen (if they have enough supplies to warranty discounting)

Good luck with “sales”… Supply and demand man.

Just let go of a set of wheels today.

You have to know your sales people. With the experience the sale is much better. Hopefully a lot of you guys have that. I’ve been buying wheels tires and parts for 40+ years so I can get deals and good prices while others have to suffer.

I would agree with a lot of this. Developing relationships with your build partners is key to a successful and efficient build.

There won't be any sales.

That's not what's happening with supply and demand right now. Wheel manufacturers and distributors don't have to discount anything, they can't keep up with the orders coming in.

Tell us about your last purchase of a set of wheels. When did that occur? From whom?

where is the money coming from? as far as im aware, the news makes it sound like people are struggling to make rent etc.. but commerce is booming.

They've been given tens of thousands for doing nothing.

In this area people were getting $48K annual in un-employment during COVID.

Now, with the staffing shortage, people at McDonalds are making $25+ an hours.

The latest set was done in July 2021 from Wheel Warehouse. I was looking at the Savini BM14's keeping the wheel and tire sizes the same as PP1 stock. We had a deal all wrapped up. After a few back and forth calls with Savini WW told me that Savini couldn't get the fronts to fit. I did have a second choice, the SV-F1's. I changed my mind on the sizing and went to 19x9.5 275/40/19 in the front and 20x11 305/30/20 in the rear. The tires went up a little due to my change but the wheels were going to be $600+ more. Because he told me that the BM14's would fit he ate the difference in the price of the wheels. I'm not saying this is normal but having the relationship sure helped.

Supposedly the CEO of Micky Ds made over $10.8 million last year despite missing performance goals...so there is that to think about lo.

My wife is making $18 a hour just answering phone calls for a call center from home. They provided a desktop, monitors and a headset.

She has no idea the extra car stuff she's purchased for me
