Default Best price on AR wheels?

Just wondering where/who has the best price on American Racing wheels?

Anybody have any current pics of their cars with American Racing wheels on them, like the TT2's?

yessir still do!

Bought them back a few yrs ago. Some retard at the tire shop(from the guy I bought them back from) evidently can't run a tire machine, and scratched up the lip on a few of them. Other than that, they still look pretty good. Like new rubber on them too.

I've been running 17x11s for years and have never had any issues with rock chips. I honestly think that if you get 17x9.5s, that you'd regret it. The 17x11s look much more agressive. I bought them new from a discount tire store in Illinois. The original buyer didn't come through with the purchase, and I got them for a killer deal
