Best Place to purchase Pro comp Wheels/American racing wheels?

Just curious where you all purchase your wheels from? What Is a good place?
I am looking at getting either Pro Comp 7005 or American racing thug wheels, 18 x 9's
Also,Looks Like 0 offset, 5" backspace is the hot setup?
2007 Fx4 is the 6x 135 correct?
I currently Have cooper discoverer SSt's 275x70 18 with 2 1/2 leveling.
Sorry for all the ?'s Im a newb and This is what I have gathered from searching on here.
any input is appreciated Thanks again, Tina :-)

I bought my American Racing rims from Discount Tire. I don't know if they are the cheapest but their service is top notch. Worth the extra money.

I'm gonna help you out. I've serched and searched and this place is the cheapest that I've found for the Pro Comp 7005's...$154.05 per rim, for an 18x9 inch rim and FREE SHIPPING.

Thats the deal maker right there because I've found them like 20 bucks cheaper a rim, bu then you pay $150/$200 for shipping so your actually paying more.

Heres the website though, this is the cheapest I've found the 7005's in 18" and 20" rims....

Also try <www.wheelsforless.com> they have fair prices for at least American Racing rims and free shipping (well there is a $10 or $12 "handling" charge, but thats for the set, not each tire). Good luck.

I ordered
18x9, 0 offset, 5" BS
I will be mounting my 275x70x18 Cooper sst's (33's)on them.
I Ordered the TPMS Strap kit also from Revolution so I can transfer my sensors over.

I called Pro Comp Direct, They said They have 33 wheelsets in Paint right now and 23 were accounted for for orders, They said If I got my order in via a vendor (Off Road Toy store)
That I should get part off this batch.
I called Off road toy store to confirm that ther 18x9's on there website order form were the 0 offset as it didn't say and they said that they are the 0 offset. (as they come in a -12 also)
They have the best price and free shipping, hope getting them is as smooth as the order went.
I will def post up pics when they are on
oh another thing when i placed my order there was an option to recieve a tire cover or $10 gift cert or Pressure gauge for free with the order..bonus!!!
-Tina
