Why not give them a call or e-mail/PM and ask - I've not seen anything posted by them about Black Friday deals at this point. And yes, they are a reputable source for wheels.

I just bought wheels from Bob. Drove to Ft. Lauderdale, the shop had the wheels switch them out and I was on my way. Smooth and effortless transaction.

Top is old, bottom are the OEM wheels I got from Bob (HOUSEOFWHEELS).

Ok I ordered a set of 2014 c7 5 spoke chrome wheels for my 2008 c6 from them.
( House of wheels)
Now should I stick with stock tire size or should I go bigger with the
255/40/18 295/35/19 They are a little taller and wider .
The wider will help protect my new wheels from road rash .
But would the 1/4 taller kill my gearing out of the hole ?
Please chime in this .
$200 more for the 255/295 vs stock 245/285 on super sports .

search button is your friend, bob has been on the forum for about 10 years and had probably sold a couple hundred thousand wheels to satisfied forum members.

his prices are low as is, so not sure he will do a black friday deal but you can certainly ask. good luck either way.

I have bought two sets of wheels from Bob (House of Wheels ) should be called House of Deals and no finer customer service can be found. These wheels of mine balanced out great with a minimum of weights and no vibrations in the steering wheel ! This set has been on the car for 8 yrs, 30-40k miles om em, black powder coat finish and polished lips,. i love em ,,,,and you too Bob. Been awhile but thanks again friend.
