sucks, but some competitors offering the same products at a lower price.......unless you do something to counter it or offer something the competition doesn't have then it's likely your business will fail....the economy is also bad as well so it just sucks man.

This is completely incorrect. Tom's business was doin just fine. But his health was not. He finally got to the point of not being able to run the company as it should be so he shut down. If he pulls thru (which we all pray he does) then he will return & re-open shop hopefully.

If you found someone selling wheels cheaper than Tom was you better check to make sure they aren't plastic. I could never find pricing cheaper from anywhere else on the exact same wheels when comparing.

Lots of places do, you have to use the interweb to look around.
Most people don't like it but Ebay has alot of replicas...

That's where I got the rims you are looking for.

Wow, a lot of people, (not all, but a lot) seem to be worrying more about where they are going to get wheels from, rather than his health. Let's all hope he gets better REGARDLESS of whether or not he will continue to run his business. He's a great guy. But yes, it WOULD be nice if he were able to run things like normal again.
