Precision Installations in Valley Stream is good. I got my last set of wheels from them. Their prices are somewhat close to internet prices also.

Precision Installations in Valley Stream, sucks big time. At first they sell you the rims and tires a good prices, but if you need service on them, then they f--k you. I brought there in 2001 and then thought Paul (eastern). The color of the hubs turned color on me, in less then two month old and was told, I would have to buy new one. That's B/S to me.

I wont go through precision. They will charge you tax even if you give em cash. thats why their prices are so low.
Atlantic infiniti also deals with them...

Go with da mayors suggestion. That way you will go through a much more reputable source.

Both Precision and Speedworld are sketchy as hell.

Good point but I doubt he's walking in with 3 - 4K cash... But hey, could be wrong

Speedworld I would never buy wheels from anyway. Prices are a bit high.

OMG !!!! Its funny that you say that because my last two cars had systems installed by them and both of them got broken into and the system stole. WTF!!! I cant believe this. I am never going back there again ! WTF ! I wish there was a way I could find out if it was really them...

BTW... How did you find out abt this Neal?

in the automotive world you hear about a lot of stories... like back in the day a shop in queens used to do motor work and swaps on customers cars and make copies of their keys. my friend in autocrime told me that lovely story they'd just come to your house w/ your alarm code and copy of your car and just drive right off or steal parts. what happened to all the nice reputable shops-- thats why neal376 knows i only deal with certain shops and people.
