Does this mean you are considering buying the wheels now?

Nothing personal about my comment about on your "bargaining" so hopefully we can move past that. Have a hug buddy.

C said he got his Rad R10's for a great deal at less than half the cost, from a friend, but since you and Takman aren't friends the situation doesn't necessarily apply. I would be willing to sell at a lower price to a friend, but that doesn't necessarily apply to a stranger you know?

I did sell an extra set of wheels for my other car last night, and I did actually give the buyer a good deal from my firm asking price.. but then she flashed me when she bent over to inspect the wheels.. so I'm good. Wonder if there was any boobage involved with C's transaction. HAHA!
Haha Melvin, at first I was like woahh you sold one of your sets so you can get the Rads or 20'' LMs now?!

Thanks for helping me hold up the fort in here. I actually bought these from a different person, Michael's DPE's that were on the car beforehand were way too baller.

Thanks for the positive comments! I'll let you know if I decide to change my mind but if I can't get anything around what I'm asking I'll probably just keep them.

What is the current asking price and please post recent pics of them after cleaning and polishing. Are those tires going to rub on my car since I'm dropped on h&r sports? Also what's up with that dent? Has it been fixed? Also hard to tell in the pics but is the center color like gray of some sort, I'd love it if they matched my car color.

I think I want these wheels but need to confirm all the details first. Please post or email updated pics after cleaning. My email is rmayrap@gmail.com

also if these tires are going to rub I think I'll buy the wheels without them. Please provide a shipped price to 63021 with and without tires.

Paypal ready.

got your email about the pics but didnt get any pics....

please send again with as many pics as possible.

i need to figure out why a 255 rear was rubbing....sidewall too tall or what? im planning on putting a 285/25 on these if i buy them and dont want them to rub. any way to figure out the offset since DPE doesnt list them?

Keep in mind even if its the same tire size, each brand is different so that comes into play as well. I think Nitto Invo's tend to be a meatier tire.

This may be a guess, but I think Takman may have purchased his wheels from a 3 series/M car, which explains the 255.

Also, wont a 285 be too wide? The shoulders may rub, especially since you are lowered.

Not really Melvin, I run 285/30/20 on my car and after the fenders were rolled it only rubs on the deepest freeway dips I may even switch to 295/25/20 next time I need rears - I am running Falken 452's

The rear offsets are pretty aggressive on these I think. No idea why 255 was put on, I bought them like that and the tires were pretty much new so I didn't want to swap it out. I would guess that 285 would rub but I wouldn't know for sure. You will be best off getting your rear fenders rolled though.

I must be trying to send too many pics, there's about 16 total and I had to shrink them all when I sent them to other people which they probably didn't get either. I'll go back and resend.
