Question Best sources for 3DM wheels?

Specifically the 3DM Avila 75mm 77a in white. I have looked at the forum sponsors, but was wondering if anyone knows where the best prices are. Thanks!

Seismic/3DM wheels are pricey no matter where you purchase them....considering that they (the white Avila's) are no longer in production I would jump on whatever set you find

Try Seismic direct. Not only will they (or more likely Dan Gesmer) actually reply to emails unlike some other wheel companies cough cough.... but they will send out promptly.

If you like the White ones do have a look at the new clear colourways on some of the classic Avalon and Avilla shapes.

...and if you like 3DM wheels, you'll be doing yourself a disfavor if you never go to Purple Skunk and get some Grapey Apes.
If you don't score on the white ones, the blues are really nice too.

great deal there.

The White 77a & Blue 81a should be Black Ops even though they don't say it. I'm under the impression that only the red and purple 73a are regular urethane, and black ops is 77 duro and higher. ???

I ordered the blue 75mm Avila's and the blue 77mm Speed Vents and they both had white cores which should mean that they're both the old school urethane.
