Question on Volk Challenge

This question might be stupid!.

But several questions. i want the challange Volk rims, the price is 2332... for 4 rims. they are 19x9.5 and 19.10.5 both of them silver color prices are 578 and 588

Is it a good price? and it can be a local pick up... i didnt ask them to lower it more since it will be a local pick up.

second question... is it worth it to buy the tires with rims together from them...? or to buy it seperate... it seems like if i buy it seperately, it will be cheaper... but i dont know how to put it on... LOL

third, i heard something about.. u need to mount the tires on... so it look ok...? or i heard it wrong... if i do have to do that... how much would that be?

THX, I know theses are very NEWBIE questions... but i just dont know the answer to it...


PLEASE HELP ME OUT!

or subtract the quoted price with tires from the price without and figure out how much each tire is. Then compare that price to other places. Finally go to a local tire shop and see how much it costs to mount and balance the new wheels and tires.

PS Get quotes from multiple vendors so you know if it's a good price or not.

Price of Volks...............

It wouldn't hurt to check with everything G35 on the
price of your wheels. A word of warning, don't buy
the wheels and tires as a package. They'll try to sell
you cheap tires and that's not a good idea!! Find the
wheels you want and then order your tires from the
Tire Rack. These people know what size tire you'll
need according to your size rim and stay with a good
brand tire like BFGs or Michelin. Entry level tires
suck and all they'll do is make your car handle like
s**t!! LOL

Right here . . .

www.e-wheelz.com

Most 19" Volk packages (Toyo T1-R's) are under $3,200 - that's mounted, balanced & delivered. Lots of other tires available if you don't like the Toyo's.

Am I missing something here? I can only see a few specials for Volk and or any brand and it seems like they have a very small selection for each manufacturer. Only 4 choices for Volks?
