Default Wheelmax.com and Dragonwheels.com

I ordered rims about a month ago, and dealt with both of these two places. First, I called wheelmax cus they had my first choice. So I get this guy on the phone, and I said I wanted to order a wheel/tire package, and he takes down my credit card info FIRST. wtf? Anyway, so I tell him which wheels I wanted, and he said they didnt have any in stock and werent gonna get any for at least 6 months, so I asked about 6 other wheels, yes 6, and not one of them they had in stock, and 5 of these wheels were in the weekly specials/normal specials. Anyway, so I finally find a rim they had in stock, and the guy is like your total is $1060. I said but wait, on your site it said $899, and he was like oh well the rest is for lug nuts, mounting and balancing and packaging, so I was just like **** it and hung up.

After that I tried Dragonwheels.com, and everything went very smoothly, no hidden charges, had the wheel (first choice too by the way) in stock, and I was on my way. The wheels came about a week later, which isnt bad considering they were being shipped across the country, and I was set. So overall, wheelmax = :down: dragonwheels = :bigok:

You should run a search on wheelmax on ANY forum, and you will see MORE negative feedbacks than positive.



They have THE worst sales reps.



They have THE worst packaging people.



They CHARGE hidden fee's... Free shipping? Yea, but they'll bang you for ~$80 to "balance" them...



don't have to take my word for it,

i couldnt agree anymore. I HATE WHEELMAX...i called last week about couple of sets that i was interested in...the guy who answered my call was rude as F**K with no manners whatsoever....(all of them are usaully like this). i asked about 5 sets! all of them were out of stock, most of them they wont be getting anymore and the rest they dont know if they will. i asked,...ok if i wanted to upgrade the tires to a larger size how much will it be...they told me they can give me Nankang(cheap tires), so i said your website shows about 12 tires...guess what? they only had about 2 type in stock. very cheap or super expensive that will take 1wk to order(paradas). so i asked well, how much for 1 rim? so i swore under my breath and hung up. dame, how do they continue to do business with that kind of attitude.

I went to the DragonWheels.Com site and... its a carbon copy of WheelMax. Even their locations are almost identical. Maybe they're sister companies or something?

If it wasn't clear to you yet, Wheelmax and Dragonwheels are the same company. They also sell under other names as well. Shady... :no:
