This thread created from old FS thread: http://www.rx8club.com/showthread.php?t=164754


My R compounds are dead so I am selling the Powercoated black OEM tires that had the R compound tires mounted on them on the way home from the powdercoating shop. They have only seen pavement for the same ~100 autocross runs as the tires did. Center caps included (one center cap's paint is a little rough because i picked it up too soon after painting. can easily be touched up. The finish on the rims isn't perfect, but its damn close. There is minor minor wear from a couple cones and mounting/dismounting tires once, but absolutely no rock chips, no curb rash, or bends in the rim at all.

The powdercoat job cost 300 and a set of rims is worth at least 400.
Starting price 650 + S+P.

Excuse the pic quality, bad lighting in my kitchen and only 3mp camera on the phone.

I need to get these sold quick so we can eat off the table again!!

Free rough shipping quote for Cali people. (~$160 for people in cali if anyone is interested in them, have them shipped to your work its cheaper) I'd be all over them if it wasn't for that, mine are sandblasted ready to get powdercoated.

No its less than that. I have a fedex business discount. I've shipped to utah and its not gonna be 160. Greyhound is a little less convenient, but much much cheaper and they've done well shipping subwoofers and other heavy, delicatew items.

Any chance you still have these available?

I was going to get my stock rims (same as yours exactly) powdercoated but maybe if youd be willing to work out some sort of exchange for cash and my rims we could make this work?

No curb rash or any dings on them at all

Sorry I'm trying to sell them to make space in my living room. If not for that, I'd keep them for myself as a backup set.

Hey, I have a MazdaSpeed3 and I've been looking all over for some decent RX-8 wheels and I do believe you have them sitting on your table! I dunno if you can figure up what shipping would be to go to Ocean Springs, MS but if you can, that'd be great. If I can swing the price, I'll take them off your hands.. or table.
