Smokin hot deals on Weld wheels!!

This is an unbelivable deal on Weld forged wheels. The deal is 75% off on any Weld wheels, and have it shipped to your closest 4WP store so that you don't have to pay shipping.

One such example of the deal, a $462 wheel is $115. Another example is a $316 wheel is $76.

This is smoking hot for the auto enthusiast!

Im pretty sure weld went out of business so if you have warranty issues (leaking at weld on two piece) you will be sol or if you ruin one you eventually wont be able to get a new one but other than that it is a smoking deal.

What kind of bolt pattern and backspace are our trucks?? I spend so much time looking at the power side that I've never even considered the "bling" stuff. But yes thats real cheap for Welds. At $500 a rim I'm not surprised they went out of business, but aren't Welds considered Very good rims??

Weld Racing Wheels did not go out of business. They were bought by American Racing Wheels and are still alive and well. http://www.americanracing.com/weld_racing_wheels.asp http://www.weldracing.com/ . Greg Weld started another wheel business Greg Weld Designs. http://www.gregweld.com/

4 wheel parts does not have anything worth having for our trucks. Most of what they have left is 4.5"bs 17x10 wheels. I tried to get some myself and they had absolutely nothing.

American Racing did buy Weld Racing, but most of the current styles are going to the wayside. That's the reason for the selloff.

Not according to their website. There seems to be a bunch of 20" wheels still in stock.

Exactly, shows what a RIP OFF 4WP is normally. Nevermind what I really think, but after knowing some guys who worked there, I would never buy from them. Watch when they do the buy 3 get 1 free deal, they mark up the 3 to cover the free 1.......wth??????

4 Wheel Parts isn't completely bad. Most of their stuff is priced right at MSRP, which most companies don't do, but when they have sales they've got some really good deals. I bought my fender flares from them cheaper than any other place on the internet during a sale.

I called in Tuesday and ordered a set of the Weld Method wheels in 17x8.5" with the 6" backspacing. The guy told me there was only one set in the company, somewhere on the east coast. I'm hoping the inventory was correct (need a smile for fingers crossed). I did the store delivery, he told me it'd be a couple of weeks.

I'm thinking on my red regular cab these will look good, and not too bling. I may eventually do the black powerwagon flares, black linex rockers, and some custom bumpers (painted black). I've never seen them on another truck. I may have the black lettering on the outer rim stripped, it depends on the finish on that section of the rim.

It doesn't show anything...other than they're having a SALE. Take a look at the prices and it's very obvious they didn't mark the Welds up by 75% to cover the discounts. Despite what you might think, selling items for MSRP is NOT "a rip off".

JRUSSELL, I'm sorry I didn't say that differently, if you know alot about 4wp then you would know they have a tire sale a few times a year. Watch for yourself, they will actually mark up the tires enough to just about cover the the 4th tire. SOrry I didn't specify, I didn't mean they were doing this on the wheels, yes this is obviously a blow out sale. I just don't trust 4WP and their tactics, I've used their services in the past until I found real offroad shops locally that don't **** the customer.

The last time I purchased a set of xterrain tires for my Bronco 4wheelparts was having a buy 3 get one sale. There wasn't a 4wheelparts store in Tucson at the time. I went to my local Big-O retailer and they said they could honor the deal because 4wheelparts was passing it on to their wholesaler too. The price was the same as if I'd purchased them from 4wheelparts, but I was able to get the full roadhazard certs as well. I've never seen evidence that they mark up the other 3 tires to cover the fourth for the sales, but the regular price is definately inflated to be price competitive to BFG and Goodyear with a lesser product.
