What do you guys think of these wheels? I found a set for $200 with less than 1000 miles.

SamS 03-13-2008 03:31 PM

I like mine, light and strong for the price.

Braineack 03-13-2008 03:36 PM

should have mine bolted up this weekend ;)

That's a classic wheel, and they look great on Miata's. I hate them in white, but that's just me. $200 is crack whore pricing. What's size and offset are they?

They are 15x7. Bearing in mind that i know nothing about wheels/tires, i dont know the offset.

Rishi 03-13-2008 03:52 PM

200 would be a steal for those wheels. Even though they are considered inexpensive, most places have the wheel for 100-125 dollars. I seriously am considering these as I want to save a little dough in the future replacing tires on a 15 inch wheel insead of my stock 17s.

wes65 03-13-2008 03:58 PM

i just hope that i can get a decent amount out of my current 14" tires so that i can get some decent tires to go on these bad boys. Begi s1 has left me broke as hell.

Braineack 03-13-2008 03:59 PM

IIRC they come with a 36 or 40 offset.

In 15x7 4x100 they came/come in +38 (what you want) and +45.

The super rare 15x8 4x100 came in +32 which is what you want. There is also a +22 which is what you do not want unless you have flares.

Seriously.

If you seriously decide on passing these up, I will drive down to Indiana and pick em up.....

$300 for my Falken's?

JDMAflac 03-13-2008 04:33 PM

One of my favorite wheels, I wouldn't pass on the deal.

wes65 03-13-2008 04:35 PM

i sent him an email saying that i would buy them. Now i just need to sell the wheels i have. Anybody want some of these?

$250

Zabac 03-13-2008 04:38 PM

if you pass on those wheels and don't hook someone from this forum up with the seller, you will get banned for life, not from this forum, life in general

$200 is a steal, i would delay my mortgage to get these at this kinda price...
good luck, i hope you get your $$ in place

wes65 03-13-2008 04:42 PM

oh,yeah i have the money in place, dont worry about that.

Bryce 03-13-2008 04:44 PM

I would definitely get those if I wasn't already getting Heliums.

reddroptop 03-13-2008 06:05 PM

They are cheap for what you get @ the Tirerack @ 105$ each + shipping.

Pretty much the best wheel around the 100$/wheel price point.

Savington 03-13-2008 06:28 PM

If the 6UL had never been produced, I'd probably be on 15x8 K1s.
