As many of you may know, JLB Motorsports was a great wheel website but is now out of business. I am shopping for wheels and can't seem to find any similar websites.. anyone know of one? :bow:

Yep, they've been gone for about a month now. =/

I'm looking for some 15's, under 12 lbs., and priced at $400 shipped or less.

Konig Heliums would be perfect. JLB's were about $380 shipped IIRC. But everyone else is at $440 shipped.

Or Rota Circuit 8's or Circuit 10's. Same deal though, JLB was the cheapest..

I'd LOVE RPF1's but they're so expensive..

Doesn't discounttiredirect carry Konig? If you call, they might have Heliums, they might even have them listed on their site.

feathers from discount tire are $99 each shipped....you'll only spend $16 more than JLB

edit, actually they have a $50 instant rebate now....so they'd be 346 shipped....with hub rings!

win win

Yeah I just saw that barber and Aarron. I'm in Ohio so I get charged $30 in sales tax but I will probably be getting the Feathers.

tried good-win-racing.com (http://www.good-win-racing.com)?

Edit: a more direct link in case you've never been to the site. It can be a little confusing.

Helium's for $94 if you scroll down...

They do

I bought 4 of the last 16" inch bronze heliums in the country (only 1 left at the Konig warehouse in NY) Discounttiredirect is now sold out of 16's in bronze / but they had plenty of stock of 15's

got a crazy good deal on the 16's and some falkens

I miss JLB
