No offense bro, but I dont understand your thinking on that. They didnt sell on Ebay for $1000, so you want $1200 for them? Why dont you install these on your S?

 

I think the auction timing was not the best. I probably caught a lot of our west coast friends either sleep or stuck in a traffic jam!
The fact that it did not sell this time does not mean it will not seel at all.

If you see the size of pot holes and kerbs in NYC and westchester you'll understand why I do not use them myself. There are also financial considerations and the "one who must be obeyed"! (she is not that bad really!)

 

Fair enough. I will let you know if I am interested in them. Can you tell me what tires should be used if I am lowered about 1-1.5 inches? I want to do some tire pricing before I buy 19s to replace my 18s.

RO JA BOY i AM RUNNING 225/40/19 IN THE FRONT AND 245/35/19 IN THE REAR. I WANTED TO RUN 265/30/19 IN THE REAR BUT DONT THINK WITH MY DROP THEY WOULD FIT. I COULD RAISE IT UP A LITTLE AND BE ABLE TO RUN 265/30/19 IN THE REAR. NEXT TIME I AM GOING TO BUY 265/30/19 FOR THE REAR AND ROLL THE FENDERS. I FOUND MY TIRES AT ONLINETIRES.COM THEY WERE THE CHEAPEST. ABOUT $745 SHIPPING INCLUDED. I AM RUNNING THE BRAND NEW TOYO PROXES 4 AND I REALLY LIKE THEM. FOR THE PRICE AND WEIGHT THEY ARE THE BEST.

 

I like these wheels, and for the price you can't beat it..BUT..... I live in WV, where potholes are around. Do these wheels, being forged, bend incredibly easy, and how do they hold up with 40 and 35 series? Also, I'm stock height, would it look goofy that high?

 

Nothing you can do about pot holes but look out for them, and you ask are they strong? THey are very strong. to judge if it would look goofy go on a search and type in "acari" you should find a red S2k with these wheels on it at stock height. I think any car looks goofy not lowered, and our cars being short and high off the ground these wheels would make it look like a tonka toy IMO!! I think for 19s to work on a S you either have to slam it to make it look low or have a body kit.

 

i'll be going to jersey at the end of the month..

if you have the rims by then i'll take it for 950$ cool??
