Where to buy OEM 19"s ?

There are several threads in the classifieds section where people mention that the OEM 19's are fairly cheap, about $1200ish brand new. Where is the best place to buy brand new OEM rims? (I couldn't find OEM's on the sites listed in the sticky)

You can order brand new 19" OEM rims from the dealer. They will run you about 1k and some change per rim. Knowing that, I would rather opt for new aftermarket rims and new tires. It's going to cost the same, if not cheaper depending on what set-up you choose.

Edit: Why not simply buy used 19"OEM's and save a ton of money?

Well I was looking at used one's in the forums, but someone mentioned that new OEM's with tires only run about $1200 for a full set. That's what they seem to be going for on ebay as well, so I figured, why not just get all new ones.

Unfortunatly, andy is right....it will cost you tons of money to buy them brand new from the dealership. Stick with "used" ones
