Default Buying from O E Wheels

I'm getting my tax return here pretty soon, sadly only getting $600 or so, but I'm very interested in getting some black rims for the 'stang. I thought about doing DD black bullitts, however they're getting kinda played out, and I found some black 03 cobras I like much better. They also are selling some 18x9 Saleens I'm kinda looking at too, but I'm leaning toward the cobras.

I can either get the 17x9 rims with Mustang Tuning (about $520 shipped for the set of 4, with cobra centercaps) or I can get the same rims on ebay for the same price (but with pony center caps, which I want anyways) from O E Wheels. However, in the past, I read about a few people who advised NOT buying from them because the wheels are low quality and blemish easily. Their feedback on Ebay is good-- only a few negatives, but that's to be expected from some people.

Has anyone bought from them? I know the prices are only a few bucks off, but if these wheels are good and already come with the center caps I want, it'll save me the hassle later. If anyone has heard something bad about them, please tell me about that too.

Thanks guys!

I think the black bullitts will look better. The chrome lip gives it a better look. I think all black rims are nicer looking with a chrome lip. But thats my own .02. Believe me, it will look good. As for quality, ive heard nothing bad about the rims from mustang tuning. They better be good. Im getting my DD bullitts from there.

Maybe I'll have the guys over in the chop shop set something up for me. I think the EBay store I'm looking at has bullitts too.

Anyways, I know mustang tuning sells reputible stuff because I've bought from them... however I'm wondering about OE Wheels on Ebay, just because the wheels seem like such a good deal.

I bought my black bullitt rims from wheel index for $454 shipped! They are very glossy, very high quality!! Just figured I'd let you know!

Heres a link for a current auction.

Also I noticed you have a black car. Wheel index has some white bullitt rims too, although I'm not sure how they would look.
