    List who you either have bought wheels from or know where a good place to buy wheels are? This would help me out a ton as well as others:)

    ya the guy was like ohhh no way those eliminate thread count and your wheels will be barely holding on I was like dude those are spacer adapters not just little spacers you throw on the lugs and hub and he was like "YA I KNOW THOSE ARE WORSE" . He was all "If your wheel falls off which it very could were held responsible for it" I told him I understand and explained how spidertrax work but he didnt get it so I was like forget it dont worry about it man have a good day and left

    When I was researching for places to order my PC wheels from a few months back, I ended up comming across this company called 'pssautomotive'. Turns out they're located about an hour away from me. I had never heard of them before, but maybe they are more widely known than I think.

    Anyway, what lead me to ordering them from there was that the wheels were cheaper than everywhere else I could find and shipping is only $9.95. This was for the set of four wheels that I ordered.

    They had prompt shipping and shipped all four wheels in two different large box's with two seperate samller one's in each for each wheel.

    My only complaint was that when I had to exchange the first set of wheels that I had ordered (my fault), it always took a very long time (like 3-4 days), to get a reply back from them between our email exchanges which was quite frustating.

    Next time ask for a manager, explain the situation of them. Most of the time, it's up to the store manager to make the call. Company Policy states that we (Discount Tire) cannot work on spacers that are the flimsy throw away. It's the manager discretion to make the decision whether or not to operate on sidertrax spacers... Hope this helps

    So I called discount tires again and this time asked a manager if I came in and purchase a set of wheels from them will they put them on if they have spidertrax on them he said no he will not allow anyone to work on them.....Those spacers will get loose and fall off and in turn I will sue him for the damages because we put your wheels on for you.....I just laughed and said ok thank you and that was it

    Are you planning on continuing to run the spacers with new wheels? If so...what offset are you planning on running?
