Post A helpfull Vendor: Praise for Dave from Wheel Enhancment

Well we often have bad reviews of vendors for things that have done wrong, but I just wanted to point out that Dave from Wheel Enhancment has been nothing but helpfull to me.

I have sent him a few emails regarding wheel price and sizes and he gets back to me quickly and has offered good ideas. Also they accept old strait and ture wheels on trade making the new wheels a bit easier to pocket.

I have nothing to do with them as a company, but I will be doing buisness with them in the future.

They never answered my question about available wheels for -86 Turbo
I even called them and they said they were working on it.

they had an ownership change not to long ago, that might have been the problem.

But my fitments are for a 86 turbo and I'll tell you what I know.

You can get
Replica wheels (C2 Turbo, Cups, Twists) all for about 1K
BBS LM's
Anything from Kinesis, HRE, or Fikse

and I think that is about it in 17 inch applications.

Too bad they're so expensive for used wheels.

I was real impressed with Wheel Enhancement when I ordered twist wheels for my 951. They were really knowledgeable, definatly recommended.

Thumbs up

What impressed me most about Dave, is the fact that he was always courteous and prompt with replies when I was browsing for replacement wheels. It's that type of attitude that made me go back to wheelenhancement when I was actually able to scrounge up the cash for some used Design 90 rims (16 x 6 ) for my Pcar. Even though it was only $300 US for the set, I still insisted on seeing photo's of the rims prior to sending the funds. Within an hour I had the photo's.

The guy treated me as if I were spending $3000, not $300. For that type of treatment I will never forget that. So I continue to recommend Dave from Wheelenhancement over anyone else.

Just my $2 CAN ( $0.02 US ).

Cheers Dave
