Is everyone else backordered?

Or is it just me?

I've called 4 local stores, and 4wp on several different sets of wheels and every one of them has none of the following in their inventory (all in 16x8)

KMC Enduro (out of production?)
Pro comp 7089 ( I was told Late Oct at the earliest)
Procomp 7032 ( Late Oct.)
Method Race Wheel ( No eta )
ATX Chamber ( No Eta )
ATX Artillery ( No Eta )

Where's everyone finding wheels these days? Am I missing an online retailer, or is it usually this hard to source wheels?

 

I believe the enduros and the chambers are discontinued.

 

I thought they were, but it didn't hurt to ask

 

Been waiting weeks on Artilleries.

 

found em in stock through some distributors we used on recent group buys....pm'd

 

Did you try StreetSideAuto.com. I recently ordered Pro Comp 8089's from them after 4WP said they were on back order.

 

Sent you a PM, I am also looking for some Pro Comp wheels.

 

Call SDHQ for Method Wheels, I'm pretty sure they have some in-stock!

 

In my search I heard back from Pro Comp via Summit Racing, they are backed up 60-90 days on a lot of their alloy wheels.

I ordered a set of Pro Comp Series 52 steel wheels.

 

I do not think those will clear the calipers in the front.

 

Done plenty of research, been told by several sources the 17x8 with a 4.5 backspace should fit fine.

 

Ah the 17s....nevermind

 

I got some KMC enduros about 2 months ago. I ordered them SEVEN months before that, though. They are not discontinued. The reason they keep saying "backordered" or "no eta" is, from my understanding, they only do production runs for the wheels a couple times a year, probably due to tooling costs. So, what happens is, depending on when you order, it may be a very long time to get your wheels. I ordered my wheels in December, but when I got them in July, the production stamp was only 12 days before I got them, so they were REALLY brand new.

On the flip side, I read about someone on here that got the same exact wheels I have, only difference is that he just called a retailer, and the wholesaler happen to have them in stock so he got them in three days. Coincidentally, this was also in July. Hmmm.

I know a lot of people have been frustrated with the availability of some of the wheels you mentioned.

 

Funny. Yes, I've been running into the same problem. No one has inventory. Strange

 

Just ordered some procomp 7089's from tirepackage.com for $122 a wheel, they said they had them in stock but I'm waiting for a call saying they don't have them.

 

I just got 5 enduros through American tires last week. They are absolutely not out of production. And they were in stock when I ordered, I just had to wait 3 days for them to get them from from wheel pros where they order there wheels

 

Thanks for the info on StreetSideAuto.com... I tried 4WP and was told the 7089's were back ordered and would not be available for 2 months. Looked at Summit Racing and they showed they had them and they would ship out in 1 -2 days. Found out they didn't have them and they would not see them til Oct. 20th at the earliest.

After seeing your post Tuesday at 6:30 PM EST I checked out StreetSideAuto.com; had a quick live chat with Murph and he assured me that he had them in stock. I placed my order around 7 PM Tuesday and they were shipped out yesterday and I was sent the tracking info. The wheels were delivered at 10:30 this morning.

AWESOME SERVICE!!!
