Has anyone dealt with Super Buy Tires ???

So far they are the best price for the Wheels/Tires I am looking at.

1999 + 150 Shipping for (4) 18" CHROME Giovanna Corsica’s with 225/40ZR18 Falken Azenis ST115 Tires.
Includes Mounting, Balancing, Chrome Lugs & Chrome Valves.
No TAX because they are out of state.

I haven't personally bought from super buy but i do check their site alot because they have a huge ass stock of rims. On the prices they are expensive compared to the local shops here in miami. Try shopping around at some local places.

Do any of those local shops in Miami do mail order because that doesn’t work around here.
If you know of any shops in Florida that do mail order drop me a line.

I was just to two local places today and they are both in the 2,800 dollar range for the EXACT same setup.
Add 6% PA tax and you are at nearly THREE GRAND.

It’s cheaper to have them shipped in from California.

I've emailed them asking about some wheels before..
good luck, they are dumbasses..

You have to tell them exactly what you want otherwise they can't answer your questions.. They are sorry..

Here is a copy of my email to them.. I won't be buying from them, I wouldn't feel comfortable they would send me the right wheel that I bought..

Hi, Yes, They come in your bolt pattern in a +42 offset. Thanks! Mika

Please Advice
Thank you

Hi,

Perhaps I wasn't clear enough on what I was asking.

I just wanted to know what offsets are available for this wheel;
particulary, any offset close to +48 would be better.

If you need to know what kind of car, it's an Acura 3.2TL, PCD:5-114.3

So, does this wheel come with a polt pattern of 5-114.3 and an offset close
to +50 in 18x7.5

Thank you,

EP

I think I told them EXACTLY what I need so there wouldn't be any screw-ups.
I said the car was a 2002 because I figured 2003 isn't in the books yet.

Here is my E-Mail

I'm looking for Wheels / Tires for my 2002 Acura CL Type-S Coupe.

Giovanna Corsica in 18" CHROME 7.5" wide.
I believe the required offset is +45.

Also looking for (4) Falken Azenis ST115 tires in 225/40ZR-18 size.

Are these items in stock and if not how long till they are ?

Price for everything mounted, balanced and delivered to Pennsylvania.
ZIP code 18055.

Thanks,
Shawn S

long time ago i heard some negative comments on them.

none in awhile tho...


shawn, check with nearby speedshops before you order... likely to cost less then superbuy & no shipping.

you may even be able to call some of them and have them drop ship it to you.


many shops are alot cheaper then superbuy.


alternatively... many wheel manufacturers will also let you buy direct from them with tires & all.


for instance, Axis lets you do this and it ends up being significantly cheaper & faster then ordering from te net.

Soopa, read my above post:

I don't live in LA and there aren't a lot of places to check.

If anyone knows of any better / cheaper online sites, please share.

I have contacted about TEN so far and this is the lowest price I’ve found.

Try www.wheelmax.com. I think they're a bit cheaper. Also inquire from www.wheelwarehouse.com. They're both in Los Angeles area.

You should try Salesco.com. They have pretty cheap prices . Oh and Discount tire will match any online ad on rims or tires.

Shawn...

I have the wheel you are currently wanting. First, i ordered them through Superbuytires. After 3 months of waiting and bitching to them, and having give me a million different reasons why my rims havent arrived, even after they took the money out of the bank.... I had them gimme back my money and cancel the order. Then they tried to give me a 200 Fee for canceling the order which didnt work with me. FUCK THEM!!

thats all i gotta say. FUCK THEM!

jdtypeS,

Thanks for the info. I’ll take that into consideration.

Actually, I’m taking all the prices I get on the NET and I’m going to use them to negotiate with a local shop.
Hopefully we can meet at a price in the middle somewhere.

Where did you end up getting yours and do you like them?

BTW, if you have any photos of your car, please E-Mail them to me or provide WEB links.

Thanks,
Shawn S
