So this is a bit more of a 'feeler' but if someone steps up with the funds, they are selling/sold.

As it turns out, our Nissan cars are 'underweight' for class and we have to add weight anyway so these uber light 9.5 lb wheels are 'overkill'. I was using them on my miata but have just sold that car and just don't see myself using them on the B13 or b14 track rat for anything other than HPDE or test n tune days (again, overkill) so I thought I'd see if anyone here was interested.

$700 cash pick up price for the set of 4 (no tires included and the hoosier tires seen in the photo will be dismounted before shipping or pick up)

All are dedicated track wheels that have not been bent. There are some marks here and there from the tiremachines but this should give a clear indication of how they look:

These wheels helped us get 6 1st place finishes at NASA events with my former Miata (resulting in contingency wins because of how many people were in-class)

You can actually feel the difference in weight!

Additionally, sorry I didn't make this clear up front but NO TRADES!

DO IT! It's not too often that people part with them, and it's hard to find a wheel that you can literally carry around on the tip of your pinkie finger.

Just thinking out loud here, but why wouldn't you add weight to the car in a more advantageous place? Bolt a 25 pound plate under the passenger seat, or something like that? It seems counter-intuitive to add unsprung weight to a car under any circumstances, no?

^ we may end up going that route but there is also a concern about too much HP on the dyno with the lighter wheels (we are probably cutting it close). Once we get a dyno reclass, and a new dyno pull, we'll know for sure obviously.
