Directly from Centerline is cheapest I've seen. They were really great to deal with when I bought mine too.

Got mine straight from Centerline. I love my 22" Archers but I don't plan to do business with Centerline again. Although UPS shares the majority of the blame for my wheels being damaged Centerline does a craptacular job of packaging wheels. They just throw them in a plastic bag (oooooh, that'll protect 'em!) and put them in a box that barely fits around the wheel. There's ZERO packing material in the box to protect them.

Getting Centerline to actually fix the ******* things was another debacle......

You'd be surprised how many places ship rims exactly like that.

Mine were in boxes and wrapped in plastic with plastic rings around the lips. Didn't have any problems with mine; I guess just order them so they're shipped on a Wednesday

Doesn't make it any less retarded. Mine didn't even have plastic rings on them. Not to mention when I sent them back to be repaired the wheels sat in the corner of their shop untouched for over a week until I called them and asked the status of the repair. They replied: "Oh..............we were wondering what those wheels were here for."

Don't even get me started about the wheels being covered in swirls/scratches when I got them. When I mentioned that to Centerline they said all wheels look like that after being washed and dried and offered to "polish them up" for me. Needless to say I declined their offer.

I love the wheels, the whole thing was just frustrating.
