Default American Racing wheels

I was looking around for 16' wheels for my monte. I have new tires with only about 3000k on them so i would rather stay 16'. Anyways, I found this site called pungoautoparts.com. It has same really cheap AR wheels. Here's one for only $75.

http://www.pungoautoparts.com/Produc...ProductID=1336

With free ground shipping too, 4 wheels are only 300 bucks. What do you think about these wheels, and or the web site?

I don't think those are actually American Racing wheels?

If you go to their website and do a search for all 16x7 tires, those don't exist.

And on that website the center of the cap doesn't show the american racing logo, which is usually VERY prominent on every one of their wheels.

How about sports edition. I'm not really a big fan of chrome anyways, so i like this wheel. It's on sale now too. Ever heard of sports edition?

Yes, they are!! Those are the Split wheels. I wanted them for mine as well, I really ike the wheel. They are discontinued right now. When I was considering them , it was late 2005, early 2006. So the price could be because they are trying to get rid of stock. The 18" version was only about 180/piece brand new when they were first out.

Thanks for you comment. I may reconsider the AR wheels. I'll let you know what happens.
