Default Where Can I Get A Deal On Alstadts?

Looking at the Type 1s, or the Lubrecks.

a.) Considering at leat 18s, maybe 19s; not sure on widths;

Please post some desirable / maximums without me having to modify my fenders

b.) no chrome

Curious if anyone here has a hook-up, or a friend selling.

I got these pics from Hiro's site.

Also would like to hear feedback on quality and build workmanship. If memory serves me correctly, they are up there on the 'good' list

Thanks

I know somoone who might be selling theirs used for around 3grand if you want to save a couple thousand. These are 19's with a staggered setup. Nice fat lip in the rear and a good size one up front. He is a car nut and has taken REALLY good care of he wheels.

Thanks Z - I actually got the pics from that website, Hiro's.

Here at CL, someboby always seems to know somebody, who has a friend, who is selling, etc....so thought I'd check that route first

Thanks - yeah, the Lubrecks - I like the deep dishes. I'm flipping back and forth between the two right now.

Yeah Dex, I figured you knew Hiro's site but I was/am also interested in a few Altstadts and those are the cheapest prices I've seen anywhere. Plus Hiro has a pretty good reputation, unlike some of the other importers.

Did Steve get back to you yet??

Z: Hey - cool - didn't know if you saw my text up top.....

Yeah, that special on the Lubecks really has my attention. I sent Hiro a message asking about how deep those lips are on the 19 x8.5 and 9.5s - well see - seem like I could fit a midget wrestler in there

Steve: Not yet

Yeah Dex, $2000 for a 19 inch staggered set-up, that's a great price. Why am I still looking for wheels??

What about the Lec's RCK?? It's a nice 5 spoke wheel with a hella lip. Pretty decent price too.

Does anyone know if he has an inventory of wheels or does he have to import them??
