Boss 338 Wheels **GROUP BUY**

[Dirty McFast]

Would love to get in on this if you do a second round. I followed the thread about the fitment issues for months just waiting-guess I kinda gave up, because I missed this completely.

[Sublvr72]

I'll see about opening up the purchases again after things settle down. Eagle is working hard to locate all the rims you guys ordered. Once I know what they have left I'll try to open it up again for another week.

I'm not bugging anyone about when my wheels are going to come in I am just wanting to know how to check to see if they have been shipped I dont know how too lol. I ordered them 3-28-10 from the website they were the 18s -2 so they should have been in stock. Also when I ordered I didnt create a account but afterwards I did so I could try and check my order but it would not let me any help would be appreciated and thanks guys for the sweet discount and putting this all together.

[darthwall]

you should get a email saying that they are being shipped from Sublvr72 saying whats going on it could be awhile or they could ship out right away

I got my front two 20x8.5's today and I guess my rear 20x10 are coming from another warehouse. my front two that I got came from about 20 miles away from me. They look sweet and I mounted my front 255-40-20's and they bolted right on my 96 GMC Yukon 4dr 2WD without and mods and I have the 1 1/4 inch rotors. Hopefull to have my rears tomarrow and be rollin' them soon.

I used this site and did a search for the 295 40 20 and the 245 40 20, which provided a few options.

Discount Tire's online outlet store does a little better on pricing than their regular website, plus has free shipping and doesn't charge tax. I've bought two sets of tires from them in the recent past and have been VERY happy with the service and prices.

If you want to try to save a few more pennies, check OnlineTires.com and try to get Discount Tire (or whoever) to price-match.

[NORCAL SS]

guys please pm me if you want to save money on tires which smokes discount tires all the time.

[NORCAL SS]

how long is it taking you guys to get them after you place your order?

[Security guy]

Just got mine today here in north carolina. I ordered on the first week. I got an e-mail saying 'awaiting shipment' and was expecting another e-mail saying that they've been shipped. Come home today and

[Sublvr72]

Yep, I just got home from eagle again, another 6 sets went out since the last time I was there. Problem is by the time I'm told they ship, you guys usually have them. lol

[justincat]

got mine in today. Try to snap a pic in the next day or two.

Im just wondering.....

Why would Eagle release the 20x10 before the 20x8.5, when the rears didnt have any issue fitting? I'm not complaining, just thinking out loud....

Honestly, I was thinking the same thing. No idea.

[Sublvr72]

ok, here's the deal for those who would still like to order wheels.

I will open up the ordering again for a 3rd round. Please be aware that there could be a delay on shipping of 30-60 days if you want to get in on this round 3 buy. I say this because I have received full cooperation from eagle's regional sales manager. If he doesn't have the wheels in stock he will personally go to the owner of the company and go to bat for us, and make sure they get built! It takes them 30-60 days to complete a run of rims so that's why I say that there COULD be a 30-60 day delay in shipment. If they are in stock at a warehouse in the US they will ship asap.

I know there are a lot of guys in the 73-87 and the 88-98 boards that expressed interest so this opportunity will be open for them as well. This will probably be the last group purchase at this price. I kind of overwhelmed myself with these orders for the first two weeks, and I under estimated how much of my time was needed to get this going, so if you want this price get in now!

[Ipaintgrt]

So to get in on this order do I just follow the instructions at the beginning of this thread? I also need a 5 x 4.75 bolt pattern. Is this going to be a problem getting a different bolt pattern? Is it possible that these would be on back order for 30 to 60 days? Thanks for doing this for all of us. Its a great deal. S

[rodstored-72]

i just started to pay attention to this!...LOL!! SOOO if i read right i can get a set of 18x8black or grey wheels (like pictured on the first page) for $480 plus shipping???-on the third deal?

also i have a stock 1972 rearend with a CPP rear disk brake kit approx. 5 yrs old now, & i am wondering if the offset would pose any mounting issues? i am not sure what my rotor thick. is? but i believe they are stock-although new. i am aware of the front issues with the center cap - so can anyone tell me if the issue has been id'd & if it has been resolved??? ooh the truck is lowered 5/4.5 rear & front respectively

it really sounds like a killer deal.... if i understand right!

thanks for the efforts guys!!

My guess is you'll need a spacer for the rear. Only measuring will tell you for sure. There's a great discussion about backspacing here.

As it says in the first post, the revised 18s still aren't shipping. Yes, the problem has been identified since last year, but no, they still haven't fixed it for the 18s. It's only certain 20s that have actually started to ship.

I can get 5x4.75 as well, I'm pretty sure those are in stock. It's the 5x5 that are running low on.
