Your prices are OK if someone was to just buy the wheels, but your wheel/tire packages are a ripoff! $400 bucks for 16" KUHMO TIRES!!! Come on now buddy, who you tryin to fool??
16's at Pahn Auto for $450 picked up. You should talk to some of the members who have came to me to pick them up locally. I sold them near cost. Even with shipping, after the paypal fees and UPS fees, on a lot of set of wheels I break even. You can ask Chanc, one of the webmasters. I barely make any money off this - this is just to hook fellow members up. If you can get them cheaper, then more power to ya.

and $400 for a set of Kumhos. My prices include the mounting and balancing that I pay for, the chrome valve stems (not much, but it adds up after a while), and most importantly shipping. It costs me over $100 to ship a wheel tire package out. If you want you can always buy the tires off tirerack and mount them yourself - which is what I tell a lot of members to do when they ask me for tires. The bottom line is, nobody on ebay, or any sites sells wheels and tires mounted and balanced already for this price. Yes I do agree you can get wheels from me, and tires elsewhere and get it mounted and balanced and it may be cheaper, but I'm the no hassle, no bullsh*t solution if you want it done right - a set of wheels and tires ready to mount on your car when it gets there.

Oh yeah and the Ebay thing. I bet I could add "It's cheaper on Ebay" to almost all the for sale posts here. I'm not "ebay". I'm actually here to talk to my customers and help them find what they need. You run certain risks when you buy stuff on ebay as many members here can tell you. Fact is, it is always going to be cheaper on Ebay.
