Don't know anything about them it is still cheaper to get them from the US. I saved about $750 to $1000 cdn when I bought mine.

I haven't bought wheels, but I have bought tires several times and just bought rotors and pads for the vette a few weeks ago. Their customer service is excellent...They even returned a set of tires which had been delivered (wrong size) free of charge and recieved a full refund...

I buy most of my new tires from there. Nobody in STL will match there prices. Most say they pay more for the tires then the Tirerack sells them at. I have never bought wheels from them, but I am confident if they had a tire and wheel package I liked, it would arrive without incident and be cheaper then I could have bought locally.
