I bought these for my S15 project and have decided to scrap the entire project due to some very recent career choices which will keep me here in the middle east for the next 2 years.

I have a trusted friend that will handle all shipping from Japan. Tracking Numbers will be provided, USPS priority Shipping (7-10 day arrival) is INCLUDED in the price. These wheels took 3 months to get and were over 4,000.00 when I ordered them.

Wheel Type: Gram Lights 57 PRO
Front Wheel Size: 18X10/ - 8 /5X114.3
Rear Wheel Size: 18X10/ -12 /5X114.3

The dish on these wheels is outstanding of all the mods I had purchased for the car, these wheels were my favorite.

Iridium coated (rainbow colored like the wheel lips) Lug nuts are included with trhese wheels (a 200.00 value).

Tires were mounted however, these wheels have never been driven on, they simply served as a means for me to push the car around the shop.

Doo Doo Tires are not included.

3000.00 OBO

It looks like I will get some of it back. The big thing is that once I get rid of this thing and finish my time over here in Iraq and Afghanistan, I will start something new in the U.S. that I will actually be able to finish since I will not have to deploy or go all over the place anymore, so instead of years on a project I will be going for months. However, the new project I have in mind is not an S Chasis, so all my parts have to go.

In the end, it is better to sell it, then to risk getting it confiscated while trying to get it back into the U.S.

Wish I was there to do that.

For all others who might wonder they are doo doo 255/50/18's and I used them to push the car around because they were only 200.00 for the whole set.

TriniGT - I have someone interested in the chasis right now, but if it falls through, the Body kit will go up for sale separately.

2,000.00 (Without hood and trunklid)


Shipping would probably be a little out there but but most likely doable at a decent price.

Not a Problem



For those interested in the Wheels - Price is negotiable by a considerable amount.

I did the cost estimate on doing that plus shipping and then finishing it to my spec. The total was well over 40K. That coupled with what I already spent puts this project into the 80K + Range. It just isn't worth the ass pain when I can't even drive it every day.

I am going to be done here in Iraq in June of 2010 and then I will transfer to Afghanistan for a year (I am no longer in the military but I am a contractor now), so it is better to just cut my losses now. When dealing with something like this (namely this much money), it is best to look at it like a bad investment. Do you cut your losses now? or do you continue to flush money down the toilet and hope there are no unforeseen issues with getting it back in two years? The answer is pretty simple when you look at it objectively.

Damn think about it though - for that much money I could be driving a new GTR a used 2004 lamborghini Gallardo, a mid to late 90's Ferrari F355, A Lotus, a used Aston Martin Vantage, a fully worked over 370Z or even 4 Silvia's with very nice mods on each one.

The Juice just isn't worth the squeeze anymore and it is time to move on so I can actually afford to buy a house to start a new project when I get back.

I am 33 years old, I have lived overseas for about 12 years of the past 15. I need to start thinking about buying a house, setting up a proper garage and reapproaching this kind of thing when I am ready to do it on my terms, not paying rent to the Hobby Shop.

Sucks that this project has to go, but it is the best thing to do right now.

I wish I was a baller and could buy these just to hang up in the garage or something. I wouldn't even want them to see surface streets. But sucks to hear about your project being scrapped, hopefully your future plans work out better for you.

Free bump for some sick wheels being sold by a dedicated person.

Price Lowered to 3000.00 OBO in an effort to be a little more fair on the pricing.

wow, sad to see this go. i really enjoyed the overly anal attention to detail with your build. it was truly top notch. glad you are putting your life before your car.

good luck with the sale and parting it out. better yet, someone buy it all and finish it!

A very good friend and the only person I know that will do it right, bought the engine and is putting it into a widebody S13.

The Chasis was bought recently and will be converted to AWD.

So there are some good plans by friends I have known for a while that have the knowledge and means to make something happen.
