***SOLD!!!***

Hello Guys/Gals,

Some of you know that I sold my red s13 vert not long ago. The buyer ended up not being able to afford the wheels, so I took them off. My other car is now 5 lug, so I no longer have any use for these.

I purchased these from some army dude in NorCal in waaaay back in 2003, he brought these over from Japan personally through his checked luggage. Back then big wheels were kinda rare, especially in 4 lug, and being a huge fan of gold mesh, I dropped a cool $1600 on these puppies. I babied these the best I could, but they still suffered inevitable track damage (curb marks only, no bends, no problem holding air).

Description:
Fronts are 17x8 +24, with 215/40/17 federal 595 tires, 80% tread left. One of the front wheels have a good bit of curbage, the other is fairly clean.

Rears are 17x9 +38, with 215/45/17 (or 225/45/17, i forgot) federal 595 tires, 40% tread left (some camber wear). One has some light water spots on lip, the other is fairly clean.

Overall I'd give these a 7/10 condition. Passable at 10ft. Not for show. All four are 4x114, all four center caps are present. Faces have minor scratches/scuffs.

Price:
$1200 obo with tires ***SOLD!!!***
$1000 obo with out tires ***SOLD!!!***
$150 for shipping in the continental 48 states. Will NOT ship with tires.

Thanks for the kind words guys! These were (and has been) one of my favorite wheel designs. Definitely a classic.

Sure, I'll part out tires. PM me an offer and we'll go from there. Also shoot me some more info on your tires too, just in case.

Lots of guys offering in the $800 to $900 range, and as of now I'd be willing to take $900. First to pay gets the wheels!

Tons of flakers! I had 3 guys that were pending payment, and each flaked out the last minute. I need these gone. I could toss in some goodies to sweeten up the deal (rare valve stem caps, lug nuts, whatevers, etc.).

Replied to all PMs and emails. Lots of interest (and more flakes!), but no one has put cash in my hand yet. Price dropped again to $850 no tires. I could get these repaired and repolished, but price would definitely be much higher. Or, if you prefer, I could refer you to a reputable guy who does wheel repairs. C'mon guys, I need these gone!

EDIT: Found a relatively recent action pic, which proves that these wheels are drifty as hell!
