Diablo delta force rims
I am thnking of purchasing a set of 19" diablo delta force chromies. they look like work euroline knockoffs with about half the price tag.

I was wondering if anyone on here could get these real cheap. most sites have quoted me between 2 grand and 2100 with rubber/shipped. I have about 1500 right now, and could probobly come up with a few more hundred in a week.
Also what would be some good tires? IM not looking for anything too expensive, but decent. Thanks for any help..

NOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!
Stay away from Diablo. If they are Diablo Racing wheels. Stay away even more if they are sold out of Dynamic Wheel and Tire in California. I had some chrome Diablo Concept 9's on my Accord. Within a month, chrome peeled off and was black underneath. Almost flaked off like aluminum foil!! NO JOKE! They warped within 6 months. I take extremely good care of maintanence and I get my tires and wheels balanced every 3 months or so. So it's not like I was hard on these wheels. I drove on regular smooth roads and washed them with car wash soap and water.
Plus, Dynamic Wheel and tire did the ol bait and switch on me. They qouted me a price on the phone, told me they couldn't take credit cards from Minnesota due to fraud. I had to western union the money. Then, them azzholes called me back to tell me they got my money wire and that they need another $175 to for shipping and so called handling. Since I didn't use my credit card, I was stuck. They already had my money. So, after I threatened legal action, the only charged me $75 extra.
Hindsight, I checked them on BBBonline and they got numerous complaints for workmanship and cust svc related issues.
I know you may not even be dealing with Dynamic, but if Diablo wheels were the same Diablo I got, buyer beware. My two cents based on experience. Good luck

oh no
this is not good news. i was so looking forward to having these nice lookin rims. arent they supposed to have a warranty on the chrome.. or something like that? I don't think its dynamic wheels where i got a quote for $2,150.00 from. but if the wheels are going to peel and warp i will definitely stay away.
