Craigs list is a good place to start. I found mine there.. and there were a few to choose from. some people want stupid amounts for them and others were reasonable and some down right cheap. I think I got a good buy on mine. It is just like brand new for $5500....

The bushings are the only thing I have had to do on my 06 RTX and the regular oil changes. But I also take most of the sled apart over summer to look it over never found a thing that need fixing.

I hope I have the same luck as you with my 06 RTX...

changing the size of rear wheels is not any benefit until you get above 120mph or so....mine are stock size.
the stock rear wheels are 178mm
I went to all billet wheels(outers) as i was sick or rubber delaminating. My Billet wheels are from 'Tricked toys' and are lifetime guaranteed. I had them "reverse" powdercoated so to not show scratches on face.
They are a TY advertiser.

Rocker, those are some beautiful wheels. What did they cost you per unit, and how long to install one? Wouldn't mind getting my hands on some of those myself.

if you keep replacing the rubber wheels all the time,then the cost will even itself out with these IMO.
PM tricked toys,they have package deals,and even sometimes previously used packages that look perfect!
I got all my billets for 350 package deal. I went with 135mm OD.
