hey guys...i am looking to purchase this spring in 19's with continental extreme contact tires...

under the group buys it says special on these wheels but it seems like they always go for around $800 for the rims (is that really on sale or is this just what they always go for?).
i want free shipping or something...anyone know where to purchase from to get this?

I am also looking at getting a 5th wheel w/tire.
thanks!

$200 a wheel for 19in rs4 reps is a pretty good price. I think I paid more than that for my 710's that were 18's. rs4 reps are popular wheels around here, so you can always keep an eye on the classifieds and hope to pick up a gently used set.

It also depends on the finish. Onyx is 100 bucks more, and shipping is 100 bucks.

I'd be interested in a spring group buy if a vendor makes one...[:)]

If you find a local vendor you avoid the shipping costs

probibly will want to go with brand new wheels...but what are the conditions of them and what tires do you have?
i assume HSs means hyper silver?

Understandable, thought I'd offer. The 4 on the car are in excellent condition...any time I had a problem I bought a new one or had it replaced (bend, flake, etc). The 5th wheel has some cosmetic issues but is straight and true and has a brand new tire on it, never touched the pavement. I have Falken FK452s in 235/35 on there, decent tread. Yeah, HS is hyper silver. On my car from a while back:

is it necessary to get aligned after i get new wheels and tires (moving from 17 to 19's)??
i have my suspension right now and want to lower it but waiting on the wheels **- however wont get the wheels for several more months...

can i put hte suspension on - get alignment - then get the wheels and no alignment??

That's the right order. Changing the wheels should not affect your alignment.
