First the specs, 99% sure on these: The fronts are 17x7 with a backspace of 4 3/4 which makes the offset +18.5 and the rears are 17x8.5 with a backspace of 5 3/4 which makes the offset +25. Front tires are 215/45r17 rears are 255/40r17.

I had these on my Celica Supra p-type for a couple weeks, they roll perfect however there is a slight rub on the inside of the driver's side that did scratch the inside of the tire, doesn't appear to be anything more than cosmetic damage. I honestly didn't hear the rub before I took them off, I'm sure the inside of the wheel well could be pounded in enough to make clearance. The tires have great tread, but are off-brands and I honestly could not tell you how old they are, but assume 5 years or more. They do not have dry rot, and haven't seen much time on the road over the past three years. I recently cleaned them up and put in new nuts and bolts around the edge of the barrels. Okay now the photos:

This one has quite a few nicks, definitely the worst of the bunch by far.

Here's where it rubbed:

It just caught the wheel weight, there does not appear to be any marks on the inboard flange:

They still look great, even the wheels with nicks are awesome from just a few feet away!

My asking price is $1500 OBO. I would estimate shipping to be at least $50 per wheel, or more considering how far you are from 87109 in New Mexico. Add 3% for paypal.

Oh, and here's how they looked on my p-type:

These are two piece wheels right?

I believe they are three piece. I replaced the nuts and bolts one at a time so I did not take them all the way apart when I cleaned them. They are still balanced right and roll perfect. They were originally bought for a Datsun 240z many years ago, I bought them from another Celica Supra owner though. I bet they would look SWEET on an old Z car.
