No Chambers in stock = Dilemma

AR is a month back ordered for the 16x8 Chamber Teflon (3985-6883)...Which sucks!

I'm pretty sure I called 30 different companies off the INTERNET, with no luck...And since I am a "Gotta have it now" kind of guy, I ask for your assistance...

My All Pro lift is ordered and ships tomorrow...Tires are ordered...Installation is set up (Props to Cruz)...Wheels are the Achilles heel in my plan!

So...Do any of you know who has them in stock, be it local retailer, or INTERNET?

I need 5, but will take 4 of course.

OR

Find a different wheel and different size? Or wait a month? (Which is the Dilemma...I don't want to have to do that)

Thanks for any help-

Re: No Chambers in stock = Dilemma

If that's the wheel you really want, then wait. However, you may want to check out the selection at CustomWheelsDirect. They have a large selection of wheels online. You might find something else that catches you eye. Good luck.

Have you tried contacting tomzwheels.com? They came through for me on Moto Metals when everyone else couldn't get them for months! Tomz got them in 4 days!!! Oh, and they were $5 cheaper than the other places too!

Re: No Chambers in stock = Dilemma

I wanted these wheels as well, in fact I had them mounted today!

Ordered from Tom's discount wheels as Tom was able to track down 5 for me about 3 1/2 weeks ago. The only problem is that 2 came up missing in shipment. Tom was able to find me one whihc I finally recieved at 8:30 last night to make a complete set but I'm still waiting on the 5th one. Doesn't sound to promising either. Anyway, as I'm off on vacation to the Moab spring fling I really wanted the 5th one and even offered to pay a nice finders fee and overnight shipping on top of the orginal cost, he has not been able to locate one.

Buy the way I did go ahead and buy the 5 center caps which I've decided not to use if anyone wants a good deal let me know.

DONT SETTLE - you'll regret it later! You have to look at your vehicle every day in your driveway and having something other than what you want will disappoint you every time you see it.

Re: No Chambers in stock = Dilemma

Sandbox,
I too was looking into the AR wheels.
Mojave or Chambers have not decided yet.
In your searching the net have you found anyone that
offers a better price?
thanks and good luck
