Just wanted to share with everyone an excellent experience I had

well the whole story starts a while back when I bought wheels from wheelsnext and they screwed my offsets up, but we wont get into that.

so I was on the market for some new wheels and finally decided to go with the tenzo type M's in machine face for my OB coupe (i know not the rarest combo, but i like them an it fit my budget)

now to find the wheels, first stop venders section where I came across Top Speed Auto Sports.
I talked to Andrew via PM for at least 2 weeks, keeping me constantly updated on the status of the next wheel shipment to come in and answering any questions I had in less than a day.

finally some more wheels come in, I give them a call but andrew is out but im promptly called back when he makes it in. On the phone for maybe 15 minutes got my info and double checked my fitments and said he would get them out that day to me even though it was 4pm EST.

sure enough they shipped Wed. and I had tracking numbers.
Friday at around high noon I had the wheels in my garage in excellent condition.
A much better experience than I had with wheels next, which is the way it should be.
I just wanted to brag on top speed, they will get my business again

oh yea, pics or it didnt happen






took this one for fun tonight when I was out









pictures a few posts down of them on the vehicle!!

Good to read everything worked out to your satisfaction.

I went through three different vendors before I finally found one who actually had what they were advertising for sale in stock.

I just don't understand how people do business these days. I miss the days when people only offered for sale what they actually had in stock...not products that hadn't even been loaded onto a boat in China when the order was taken.

Where in KY are you? Florence/Union here.

funds dont allow it.

I could only afford the wheels at the time, and if anyone has ever tried to find the set of wheels they want in stock somewhere without waiting 3-4 months you know what I mean.

so I bought the wheels when I found them. I talked to the dealer who is gonna mount the tires for me and decided to deal with him when he gave me the quote

(2) 245/35/19
(2) 275/35/19
Falken Fk452

for $750 including mounting them

I'm always a fan of concaved wheels and these look really good. Glad everything worked out well for you. That's a pretty good deal on the tires too if they are mounted and balanced.
