u can get them brand new for 600$ including tax.......

Ummm where? 17x9.5+15 isn't listed on Discount Tire's site any more. If you want to spend $600 on 17x9+30, be my guest! :)

Under 17", do you see a "17x9.5 5-114.3 15MGM"?

Because that's what these are.

And nope.

Not there.

I'm not trying to be a jerk. But don't post in here to tell me you can buy them cheaper from Discount... because you can't.

Man I wish I had the cash for these. I tried ordering two 17x9.5s from Enjuku Racing, only to get a emailed that they are back ordered with no ETA. :(

Good deal to whoever picks these up.

Enjuku quoted me $150 a wheel. So $600 without shipping. Need to lower you price a little.

Also, i emailed Discount tire direct about getting a special order and they said they cant. They dont even have a ETA of when they will get a shipment of 17x9.5 +15 Mb Battles.

Anyways glws

Guy that posted above you said he tried to order from Enjuku and they don't have them in stock.

And like you said. Discount doesn't have them in stock.

What point are you trying to make?

Shipping isn't cheap; I don't have a hook-up; I live in the middle of nowhere. Shipping these via UPS will run around $95 to most of the continental US (even more, depending on where you are), and PayPal fee is 6.50 or whatever 1% is. So $100 for shipping is not BS.

My asking price, minus shipping, is $550. That is for wheels that you cannot buy new at this time. Even if you could, that's $50 less.

$550 for 4 is $137.50 a wheel for 17x9.5+15. That's Sport Max territory, cheaper than Rota. I'm not making any money, and I'm not ripping anybody off.

If anyone is wondering: I will entertain offers. But don't expect a magic $150 off my asking price. That's not how this works. If you feel $100 for shipping is too much for your location, PM me and I can get a specific quote for your ZIP code. I don't want to rip anybody off; I just used $100 because that is less than some areas and about what it is to California... which seems to be where most of you guys are.

That's with a 235/40/17 all around, -4 camber rear, -3 camber front. If you go with a smaller tire or pull the fenders more you don't need as much camber. If your car is high, they will stick out, and you probably aren't quite ready for this size yet.

Note: these are 5 lug. Even though they are on an S13. They are 5 lug.

You guys need to get off his dick.

If you don't like his price, go find something else.

He has the supply, you have the demand. He can set his price accordingly.

Don't like it. Go look somewhere else or save your money.

Yeah, it would be totally different if like DTD had the wheels, and was selling them for less than what you got them for, but that's not the case, all these guys are in here like :cj:

What people don't seem to understand is that prices determine who gets stuff. Scarcity. So if 4 people want these for $550 shipped, that means not everyone can get them. There is only 1 set. To determine who really wants these the most, the price has to go up. That's the entire point of prices. Scarce resources, and lots of demand. It has to reach equilibrium. Blindly picking who gets them for $550 is simply not fair to all those involved.

It's basic economics.
