Default Did the price of wheels come down???

I remember paying much more for my DD bullits than $395 for a set. I just out of curiosity clicked on one of the OE links and saw that. 18" FR500's for $375 a set???? I'm not looking for another set of wheels but dayum... I wish I could find some 15" drag wheels that cheap!

I think I paid $395 + shipping for my DD 17" Bullets a year and a half ago.

And yes, OE Wheels are very good quality wheels, my tire guy said he has never had a better wheel and tire balance when he mounted them up.

I paid $850 for FOUR black bullit rims(17x9, 17x10.5), 4 Sumi Z rated tires(245s, and 315s), lug nuts, mounted and blanced, shipped.

AM.com can't compete with that for hell

add in the awesome customer support, and I win.
