Default Good Price or not?

Hey guys,

Was just trolling through ebay and came across these:

18x8 T3 Pursuit rims
http://cgi.ebay.com.au/tickford-ford...lenotsupported

Just wondering would it better that I try and get these for around 1200-1300 then take it bob-jane and get balance, alignment and 4 new Maxxis tyres for $800 etc plus $80 or so for postage to Vic.

or option 2 go to Wheel King pay 2300 and get them with blue streak 245s already balanced then pay the $50-100 for postage?

Cheers

IM hopefully getting some rims on my fairmont from wheel king on saturday..actually need to PM them about that.

$1000 is about right, I couldn't pay that much coin unless I actually had a T to put them onto. Have you looked at other packages WK have?

Yeah I'm thinking 2200 is probably a bit much, not so much for the rims as they are T3 Tickfords just for the fact mine isnt a T

Ive looked at these rims 18'', got a price for 1250 delivered with tyres:



What do you think?

Honestly..generic. Ok price but what tyres?

Have a look at Wheel King, site sponsor, they have some sales on at the moment.

They come with Achilles tyres which im assuming are terrible. I dont know I want rims that are nice but not over the top. Ill check out wheel king and see what they have thanks poly I appreciate the honesty, it makes for an informed decision

Juzman, they are just off ebay if you type in "18'' Wheel Ford" they come up.
