Where to buy wheels & tires?

[Michael Phipps]

Looking for insight into the process of buying wheels and tires. I'm looking to buy a set of Black Rhino Arsenals with BFGoodrich All Terrain T/A KO2s. My local shop soesn't stock those wheels, but does have the tires.

Should I go and buy the wheels and then just have my local tire shop do the tires and then have them install everything?

TireRack.com sells the set mounted, balanced, with TPMS for $3322.01. Are they a good seller? Where else should I look?

Finally, they are offered in a +12mm version and a -18mm offset. I'm having trouble picturing these. Can anyone provide guidance on which one I'd want? I'm looking for more aggressive look.

If you want to buy rims and tires, Tirerack allows you to view many reviews do you can see what people like and don't care for. This would help you find the fit for your needs (monster mudders, road tires that are not noisy, combination). Once you find what you like you can see if something similar is available locally. Costco sells tires and rims and has their guarantee in case you don't like them.
