Local swap meet. They wheel and deal (pun intended) and no shipping!

There should be a fall something or other comming up real soon in your area?

Also, find a local vendor that you can buy from and not pay shipping.

Re: best place to buy american racing torque thrust wheels

I have a friend (board member) that has a set that he may be getting rid of.
I'll show him this thread.

jkaylor knows who I'm talking about.

Re: best place to buy american racing torque thrust wheels

I "3rd" the recommendation for Newstalgia........good people service and very competitive pricing. No tax (if you're out of state) and free shipping = pretty nice savings.

Just be prepared to wait and wait and wait for Americans (unless something has changed) since alot of the wheels are cast over in China now.

Unless he wants a custom offset, they probably have em in stock.

I'll be the 4th recommendation for Newstalgia. They were great, not all big headed like other places I called. Some of those other places acted like they were doing me a favor by talking to me. I didn't like that.
