Looking to add rims, wondering where everyone goes to look/buy their SS rims?
Where did those Rims come from?
-
Discount Tire is what I've found. I checked their website for the ones I ultimately found online and they didn't carry the brand. But, when I went to go get the tires ordered from them and mentioned it, they said they can get almost any wheel, and tried to get me to buy them, by knocking almost $50 off per tire to match/beat the price I had bought the wheels from.
It probably helped that I was buying three new tires at $202 each, but that's still a chunk off. My wheels cost me $300 each.

Can't go wrong dealing with Mitch...

I was gonna suggest RevDynamics too. But Check SlingshotOnly.com / Twist Dynamics too. You can get them in different sizes (20 or 22") than just what they advertise.

Mitch RevDynamics has a large selection and he'll do ya right.

Pretty sure he can do about anything ya want.

yeah, I don't care for really low profile tires, I want a bit of flex in my tire and if I want to let some air out and get even more grip, I have that option.
When buying the wheels, gotta pay attention to the offset (rear is 45mm on ours) and the hub size, may need an adapter.
I picked a random size at Discount of 20x11 : https://www.discounttire.com/f…ern=5-114.3%20mm/5-4.5%22
If you do the advanced search, you can pick diameter, width and bolt pattern (we are mustang pattern, 5-114.3mm)

18 x 9.5 +45 OffsetThey are almost an exact match to a Base 18" rear and I am currently running them on all 3 wheels

Not bad, I've noticed an uptick in rims similar to those, like they are what's hot at the moment?
Not saying anything bad, I know style and taste is different like everyone. I go through the "what's hot at the moment stages"
Currently going through that with the cz scorpion micro... the most fun my booger hooker has had in a little while

Truth is I am looking for a rim that is easy to clean.
I have stock base rear rims powder coated bright silver right now and a DDM big Brake kit. The brakes make a ton of dust and cleaning between the spokes is just a PIA

Great point
Montegi have some kick ass looking rims

That's one of the big reasons I chose the wheels I did... I hate cleaning wheels

Myself and many others have Forgestar wheels. Excellent value for completely custom wheels. You select every aspect, width, size, bolt pattern, offset, style, color... That way you get the perfect sized wheel for tire you want to run and the perfect color for your ride.
https://www.forgestar.com/wheels/
I ordered from these guys( https://howeyindustries.com/forgestar-f14.html ) because they let you build it exactly how you want it on their website with the prices showing. It may be cheaper and quicker to order directly through Forgestar, but you can't get instant pricing as you build on their website.

Hello Mateo, We definitely do custom orders and have a ton of options. Do you have a size or particular style in mind? All the tire/wheel packages on our site are priced extremely competitively. The tires are priced the exact same as discount tire and tire rack online. There are other places online that hide the original wheel center cap and raise the price an extra $1k over retail (not going to mention names). All of our packages are transparent and we also support the slingshot community in many ways. We also price match. If you need a custom set or have any questions just let me know. Thanks, Mitch
