Yeah unfortunately you have the most over produced wheel in Viper history...and the price does reflect!
I don't think that's 100% accurate. From what I've heard, they were produced in normal quantities, but thanks to them not being a popular choice when actually ordered by dealers/customers, they ended up with a lot of unused ones that they dumped on the market. (I'm sure the 09 production halt didn't help matters either). So...we're seeing more of them offered on the after-market than other designs, but I doubt they were overproduced.
Yep, even EBAY and another site I've sells them for way less then that and PTS RAK!!!

There may be places cheaper than PTS RAK, but every effort should be made by the Viper community to support the vendors who SUPPORT the Viper and the VCA.

I might have to pick me up a set of those one day.

And good luck getting any support if something is wrong with your order when you order from Fleabay! You get what you pay for.
I agree, we should support site vendors but vise versa is also VERY IMPORTANT! Also, I've never had a problem with other website vendors including ebay, and never treated poorly by them in any way, EVER! I use Paypal insurance so I get what I expect and pay for or I get my money back...
I would have to say, just buy where you're most happy and get the best trusted service, here or elswhere...
Your 09' coupe looks great Mike, the six spokes look great with the Blk/Red stripes color combo.

Agreed - I just don't put much faith in PayPal insurance. I got hosed on a VEC 2 which was DOA and never got reimbursed by the seller or PayPal. It dragged on for months and the end result was as if I threw the money in the toilet. Sorry but it's true. Did my due diligence, payed by PayPal and got nothing! That's where I'm coming from..

Thanks for the comments on my new baby. I hear you bought a set for your B/W - I guess I missed them last week.

Same thing happened to me. Got ripped off buying an item out of town. Wasn't too worried. I went through Paypal and Paypal's "insurance". Presented evidence and Paypal "agreed" with me.
Result.... Paypal suggested I "contact an attorney" That's it...
Paypal has no more legal authority than you or I. One of the biggest scams going...

Those 6 spokes look great on that GTS!
I agree, I'd like those for a second set on my 08...
