The wheels are beautiful, slightly used AF-128 chrome forged 3-piece wheels (8.5" front, 10.5" back) as seen at www.asantiwheels.com. Two of the wheels have some slight scuffing on a part of the outer edge of the wheel. I show the scuffing up close in the pictures below. Wheel America said they can easily fix the scuffing to perfection, but it was pretty inexpensive to have done, so I wanted to check on their work and have never had it done.

After having two wheels scuffed in a short amount of time (one by valet at a restaurant!), I decided these are too expensive of wheels to use for everyday. I have had them protected in my garage pending possibly putting them back on since they look so great, but probably will not.

Even though the wheels are slightly used, the Michelin Pilot Sport tires are all new except one, which is very slightly used to the point it's negligible compared to the new ones (long story how that happened). The rear tires are massive!

Front tires are 255/30 ZR 20 and rear tires are 295/25 ZR 20. I show the tread as well in the pictures below.

Price for the wheels and tires are $3600. I would like to sell the wheels and tires together if possible.

By the way, I can't tell you how many great looks and comments the car gets with these wheels on. I have EOM 166's on now, and although they look great, I don't get nearly the looks I did while running the Asanti's.

Here's some pics -

Thanks for the compliments. Believe it or not, my wife really wants me to put them back on. However, I had already decided not to and they are too nice to sit - they need to be on an e60 somewhere.

I'm interested in buying the rims only -- how much for the rims? Also, how much did they say fixing the tires cost?

I am really wanting to sell the wheels and tires as a package, so I don't have a rim-only price right now. These will also show up in the October Roundel as a package. The last step is eBay, but I want to give a shot to "our guys" first before someone buys them and tries to mount them on something they shouldn't. If I don't sell them within just a bit as a package, I will consider selling separately.

The quote I got was for fixing the scuffing on the wheels, nothing to do with the tires. I can't remember what the price was because it's been a while, but I may be able to find the quote. I just remember being surprised that it wouldn't cost more. Of course, if you show the pictures to any competent wheel repair shop, they can give you a qoute. It's a very typical type repair.

Then again, I tried to really show up the damage using the light in the pictures. When they're on the car though, it' not noticeable at all. You would have to make the judgement call whether you even wanted to repair them. Don't judge by the pictures. They look more dramatic.

Thanks for the interest.
