Someone selling 3 oem 166 wheel for 400 bucks. Two rear and one front only. Wheels have curve rash and scratches but not bent. Is this good price? Im thinking of powder coating them when i get the fourth wheel sometimes in the future.

Curve rash? Is that some STD?

Joking aside, you may also want to make sure they are OEM, and not sold as OEM. Sounds like a decent deal at face value. Post some pics!

If it sounds too good to be true, it usually is.

It's a seemingly good price. That said, these Franken-wheel sets almost always end up being a problem. What Price Hassle, Capt. Flagg?

Just want to let you know that I got the wheels for 350 bucks. They are all OEM and staggered with BBS germany encrypted.. Two of the wheels have deep scratches on edges but not bent or cracked. Now I have to look for one more wheel to complete the set and will have them repaired and powder coated. What color should I go for a titanium grey car?
