They are: AZA Z2 Staggered Rims in Black wearing
Front: 255/35/19 Rear: 285/30/19 (Bridgestone Potenza)

This package runs : $2500 (New)

Asking : $1100 or $600+OEM Wheels

I'm thinking about selling these. I've found some OEM wheels however would be willing to trade for some OEM wheels + cash. I just picked up a set of Tein S-Tech springs so I'm not sure if I'm going to face an issue of rubbing when it's lowered. I just wanted to see if there is any interest in these rims. The tires have about 60-70% tread left. I don't know, I love the wheels and the grip that they give so I'm not sure if I'm willing to let them go. I just want to go all out with the suspension. Let me know if anyone would be interested.

Thanks,
Jon Swift

I think I'd be willing to trade my rims/tires for OEM's (with good tread) and $600. I'd rather do a local meet-up, could exchange in a parking lot. I'm not 100% sure I'm going to let them go yet, I think I'd be looking to get $1100 obo for the wheels/tires. They run about $2500 for the package new. (w/o tax)

Ballston, but I'm in the Shirlington area a lot...I guess I probably am all around, but I do pass through Falls Church too

My gf used to live at The Prime and I stayed there often, before I moved to Falls Church. There was a black 8 that always parked in the same garage as me. Was just wondering if that was you.

free bump and back on topic.

More info on the wheels would help: offsets, width, etc.

Not sure of the offset, I believe they are 19x8.5 up front and 19x9.5 in the back, I'm not 100% sure. I'll do some research.

I saw something online about the offset being 45, not sure if that is correct. I really have no idea. As for the weight of the wheels I was unable to find that information, they don't seem to be really heavy but they are wide 19's so I'm sure heavier than an OEM wheel.

Will consider offers. Open to any other 5-spoke 18" rim as well. Not in a rush, but I'm worried that I will be rubbing when I throw on the Tein S-Tech springs. Offer above still stands. $1100 obo or $600+stock wheels.

It's a secret, haha...yeah I can't find much about the specs of the wheels. Their own website has the rear wheels as "coming soon." I might be able to take off a wheel and weight it with an inflated tire. I wouldn't imagine is weighting too much more than the stock wheel. It's probably made out of stronger and lighter material but the tire size is what probably would add weight.

According to Tirerack: **Lightweight: 30.0lbs.**

I think I'm going to hold on to them, I didn't realize I could downsize to :
F: 245/35/19
R: 265/30/19
It seems this set-up will work good w/o rubbing issues, I'm still open to offers as I do have intrest in other wheels as well.

I like those Kazera KZ-A's a lot, they are the ones that look just like the MazdaSpeed wheels.
