No more Performance Wheel Outlet!?

I was planning on picking up a set of 18x8" IROC rims for my 89 this summer and I was suprised to see that The Performance Wheel Outlet doesn't seem to be around anymore. Am I missing something here. I know they carried OE replacement rims in a bunch of different sizes and they had exactly what I was looking for (18x8 polished aluminum IROCs). Can someone tell me if they have changed names or if they have just shut down? Are there any other dealers that I can get these rims from? Very upset because I can finally afford the rim/tire upgrade. Please let me know if I am out of luck. Thanks in advance.

Hi there,
I sold wheels from them. They were bought out by a company that now answers the phone, "Wheels".

I do not carry their wheels anymore because my cost rose over 55% from what I was paying before. I can get the wheels but they are not cheap like I was selling previously.

I know you had PM'd me previously about them. I do apologize for not being able to hook you up like before although I do still have a hookup.

take care,
Colin

Found 'em

Thanks for the info Colin. Finally found them at HAWKs, looks like they still carry them for $999. Pretty cheap if you ask me. Sucks to hear that PWO was bought out, they had every OE rim and great prices. Thanks Again

The best I could have done was 850 for polished through another company i found.
later Matt,

Wheel/Tire Package

Colin, I checked out your site autogoodies.com and the wheel/tire packages look pretty good. Does the price listed include shipping? Said Price Shipped, but I just want to make sure. Do you ship anywhere in the US?, I am in NY. Thanks again for all the help.
