IMHO.... i would rather just sell the rims to you guya and gals.... the prices that this guy is getting on tires arent the absolute best, but they are competitive... but from what i have seen, i cant find a better deal on the wheels, in this big of a quantity

Ok folks,
I hope that people are still interested here about doing this.... I have decided to contact Whalen Tire to see if they can compete with my dealer, and to also make the people who questioned the price happy. You all have to realize that i am not in this to make anything, i just want the cheapest price. Being a college student paying 17,000 a year for school, it makes it difficult for me to have 1500 dollars for a new set of tires.
I appreciate the fact that so many people are interested in this, and i hope that your interest stays. I am forwarding a list of all of the requests to Whalen Tire, so that they can crunch numbers and maybe get us a better deal. Also, they will have less tires to choose from, which might be a blessing!!! LOL
I will let all of you know once i find out pricing whether or not one way is better than the other.

That sounds good. Have you thought about talking to Discount Tire? I don't know what you have to do as far as getting in contact with someone there about this, but I have talked with people from their company before and they are extremely nice. Just my $.02 again.
By the way, thanks MarkusSVT for starting this and I hope it works out for the best!

Thanks for all the hard work. I think you should talk to DT as well. While you are talking to these places could you please find out what the shipping to Canada will be? I am in the Toronto area.
