Default Wheels on EBAY
I was wondering what the big deal was about buying rims off of eBay? I bought a set from eBay for my last mustang and when I took it to the wheel shop to get them put on, the salesman "said you got these off of ebay didnt you?". Is there something wrong with wheels on ebay or something? Anyone have any good/bad stories about wheels purchased off of EbAY?

Most ebay wheels are cheaper and not balanced as good as actual good brands.
