FS: staggered 19" Axis Hiro Wheels/tires local to Orlando only

Sup everyone. I've been waiting for my new Arthur Exchange wheels to arrive from Japan for friggin ever now. Nine months later, they are finally finished and being shipped here next week along with my new tires.

So, I am selling my current Axis Hiro's and tires ...They are in MINT condition. No bent rims , no damage, no uneven wear, no bs and they get detailed along with the car every month. Luckily, I live only 1/2 mile from my office so I put barely any miles on the tires (they are practically NEW). Still has 90+% meat in the tread left ... Brand new, they were over $2000. (I have the receiepts to prove it)

Asking $1500 (old price ...price reduced to $1375)

Why so cheap? What's the catch? NO CATCH

Anyone looking for new wheels...this is a SMOKING deal. Here are some pics of the Axis on my car currently. I can also include to you the receipt for the wheels and tires as I would no longer need the paperwork for anything.






Here are the wheel and tire specs:
Axis Hiro Wheels Gunmetal & Hankook Ventus K104 Tires
19x8.5 45mm / 1.5 Lip (Front) w/ 235/35-19
19x9.5 55mm / 2.5 Lip (Rear) w/ 265/30-19

for your reference, here are some on ebay trying to sell their new hiro's with tires for $2200-$2300.....19"axis hiro w/tires

Here are some more links from people trying to sell their wheels ONLY (no tires) for more than I'm asking for both wheels and tires.
asix hiros..wheels only

Even if you don't need em, you can resell them for more $$. $1500 firm gets you both my wheels and tires.

For all who pm'd me, I'll reply shortly. But pretty much, the first one to paypal or send me a $100 non refundable deposit gets them.

No more catch...I've already installed my new wheels...and since I made an extra $100,
price lowered to $1450 for local pickup or....I'm willing to go 50/50 on shipping if buyer is not local.


pic of my new wheels..same size wheels and same size tires as the hiros i'm selling..to give you an idea on what a good deal these axis hiros are ......this set cost me $4000+ with no tpms sensors...(just the tires and mount/balance were over $900)--you get wheels/tires/tpms sensors already mounted for $1450. Let me know peoples. :

BUMP..Second buyer backed out and I made another $100 deposit so I'm passing another $50 savings to next buyer......new price:
$1400 -

Practically brand new 19" Axis Hiro's and perfect tires already mounted and balanced plus tpms sensors already mounted and installed for $1400= unbeatable smoking deal. Perfect fitment for RX8 (just look at the above pics) It clears the brake calipers and no rubbing issues. No need to roll fenders. 1st come first serve ...
note to future buyer: Please be certain you are serious before you paypal me the $100 non refundable deposit.

-just found out the price of new wheels are discreetly going up $100-$200 a set due to the "higher cost of materials and oil". You can call Mackin, Volk Racing, or your local wheel shop if you want proof.

This news just made my set of Hiro's an even better deal than before...first $1375 gets it.

Thanks

Rubber is near perfect. I just installed my new wheels and tires and you cannot tell the difference between my new tires and the ones on the hiros. 90%+ tread left thanks to the fact my average two way commute to work every day is only 1 mile. (Even my car itself still only has less than 10,000 miles on it and it is a 2004)

If this one backs out I will drive to Orlando to pick them up. I need to go visit family anyway.
