I have tried for over a week now,but they only seem to have odd sizes like 18x7.5 or stuff like that.Its got to be 18x9.5 or 10's.

Whats the deal with wheelguyz? I got mine from there back in march & got them a week after I ordered them, with out any problems of issues. Seems like once everybody starting buying them they started getting a bad rep.

Here is my dealings with those bastards. I order my rims, they get here in 10 days, two of them are scratched bad, and one is not even mounted right, call them and tell them, they offer to take off $25 for each wheel scratch "that is all they can do." I say BS, so they send me three new wheels, guess what, one of them has a bent lip, I call them and tell them, they give me the run around for 3 weeks, I talked to the manager ATLEAST 20 times, even got hung up on a couple times to when I told them my name. Finally they said they will get FedEx to pick them up and when they get them they will refund my money. They get the rims and two weeks go by, nothing, I call they say give it one more week, week goes by I call and they say there is something wrong in book keeping and they will have to wait a week to get is straight and then they will cut me a check, I say **** you, I have to go to my bank and get my money back. NEVER ORDER ANYTHING FROM THEM, those guys are a joke.

Oh, Well I ordered mine from them, got them the same week none were scratched, bent or messed up in any way. Everything went real smooth with my transaction.

i think the widest rims HP makes in 18" is 8.5, and 19" is 9.5. try a search, there was just a thread about the EVO's a few days ago that listed the sizes and where to get them

I am not saying every transaction will be like mine but I know another person that went through the same BS I did. There customer service sucks ***. If the first set of wheels would not have been scratched and the one would have had the tire mounted right then it would have been a great transaction but it wasn't. Like I said, if you get your stuff from them in good shape then great, but if you have to send something back or whatever it is a nightmare, they have the worst customer service I have EVER seen.
