    I would say no. Where are you located in Canada... I say this cause kxwheels is in Vancouver so I take it your somewhere in Canada and lovin the idea of free shipping. I say no because you can get some wayyyyyyy better rims (never even heard of those before) for the same price or a litttttle bit more. Correct me anyone if I'm way off here.

    Never heard of that wheel myself, price to me sounds good. Have you tried to look them up on the net. Check www.curtiscustomwheels.com I found out about these guys after I ordered my wheels. Almost all the wheels shops in town use these guys. I DO have a connection in town to purchase from CCW. The prices around here are just stupid unless you know someone. Although my $2900 US wheels are looking more like just under $5000 CAD by the time I get them. At least i'm getting the wheels I really want though. I made that mistake with my exhaust, I hate my MagnaFlows and I will be changing to Zoomers soon.

    Yeah, Ive never heard of those wheels either... Id love some sevas s22 but they're so damn hard to find. Thanks for the link STS, they have some nice wheels in there. Do you guys know by any chance which wheels should i go with if I wanted a fat lip? Around $3000...
    Thanks,
    Adrian.

    Sevas in Canada are hard to find, $3000 and under Canadian imposible for 22's with rubber. If everything was to go right with 402 motoring for me it would have been around $3900 CAD shipped, currently i'm around $4500 and still climbing. But i'll tell you right now 402 has great deals just get someone like UPS to ship them, right now I'm kickin myself for not going that route. My wait time will be a month if I don't see my wheels by mid next week.

    Those look nice. BTW if I was a Canadian, and wheels and tires were a lot cheaper in the States, ahem, I would try to work a little sightseeing weekend down to a US Discount Tire , etc, across the border and do a changeo. Maybe work out a deal with a member for your old stockers.

    AdyRO - Maybe don't order anything until you can see some cars at the ALX meeting tomorrow? You can see the 22's and the 20's side by side, and maybe have a better idea of how much rubber you will want on your rims.

    Personally, I went with 20's due to the incredible crap roads in the Edmonton area. Our car is a daily driver, and if I had gone to 22's, with that thinner sidewall, I think I would have had at least one bent rim by now.

    Anyway, hope to see you Saturday at STS's ranch and we can talk about the difference between driving on good US roads, and the ones we have to deal with
