Buying Wheels - Where ?
 
Hi

I'm looking to buy wheels for my 03 Mach 1
Where are you guys buying from ?
I have time and can order online seeing as its winter and my car is hibernating.

The best deals I could find are from the mustang shop,
Any other reccomendations ?

315s on the back
275s up front.

Thanks in advance,

Hey i can get you rubber at consumer tire, they are in Markham, durham, and peel region.... Great guys, i got rubber for my ride, all 4 installed and balanced for $500... i believe they are 255 45 17's or something like that... they are amazing... way better than stock... let me know if you need any more info. I have sent about 10 people there and no one has complained....

What about buying used? Theres a set on GTAMC when it's back up and running. 315's and 275's, not sure how much though, alot cheaper than you'd pay new.

For rims, American Muscle hands down.

For actual rubber, Johnston and Magwood. While they aren't the best to deal with, their prices have been good in the past.

I agree with American Muscle for rims....bought 3 sets from them so far.
They are good for tires as well....they also have a 6% discount if you know the code.

Tires - I just bought a set from Discount Tire Direct off of their ebay site......they have plenty of variety and was even cheaper than AM for the sizes/shipping this time.

Here is a link to them on ebay....just search the sizes you want to see what they have.

Try the mustang superstore o Dixie Rd. In Brampton. Also called Body Kit Warehouse

eBay seems to be the way to pick up parts, well, almost everything. American Muscle however offered great support and seemed to have an idea of what I wanted to achieve with the car.

I highly recommend using them.

Supporting your local vendor is nice too, but generally you can expect to pay a higher price. In this market, no one wants to over spend.

Not to sound like a dick, but have you called around to find out a price.. there are people offering help (including me) and after my post you said.... next? I wonder why? Consumer tires supplies the GTA dealerships with tires, no dealership can stock every tire for every car, so they call Consumer tire to get the exact size they need. My buddy said he would help anyone from this website and offer wholesale pricing... you pay what the dealership or tire shop would pay getting them from my guy... avoid the middle man.

I get nothing for this, he is just a great guy who stands behind his work and has never let me or any of my friends and family down,

Good luck,

Grant
