    Default Buying wheels online?

    Hey im just curious as to where some of you order your rims online?

    I just ordered some rims and tires from 1010tires since they are canadian so you dont pay brokerage fees,

    turns out the rims they guaranteed me to fit would not clear my front calipers so i had to send them back and after waiting and waiting i have not had a response from them yet so i would prefer not to go through them again.

    If anyone has any good places online or locally that would be great.

    im looking for an aggressive set up for my tsx so some online store that only sells high offset stock size rims would not work for me


    or if anyone has any rims they are looking to sell im looking for something around 18x9 - 18x9.5 (+20 to +35)

    i looked there, they dont really have a wide selection of rims. Basically only XXR and DRAG.

    Are you looking to keep it in canada or do you mind going down south?

    If you take anything I have to say seriously, you're gunna have a bad time.

    Aspec wheels in California are amazing. Very minimal duties paid when I ordered my last set of wheels through them

    Honestly i would like to keep it within canada because of dutie fees and brokerage fees when crossing the border since i have heard rims and tires are qquite a bit when crossing the border into canada.

    im more concerned on brokerage fees, even my coilovers were almost 130.00 from UPS in brokerage fees. Ridiculous
