09 R3 wheels
 
1 Attachment(s)
I have a set of 09 R3 wheels that came off of my R3. They have less than 10,000 miles on them. These wheels are perfect. They have ZERO scratches, dings, curb rash. They are in perfect condition. They've been sitting in boxes for awhile. I am in no hurry to move these wheels so no LOWBALL offers. I know i'm new to this forum so you can text me at 918-284-2938 for more pictures. Im asking 1500 before shipping. If you want a good deal on these wheels I will trade for a set of BRAND NEW stance gp+ coilovers, go fast parts, cf body parts. No tires just the rims.

Lots of people looking for these

09blueR3 05-09-2012 05:11 PM

Bump! Come on guys perfect wheels

AZ R3 05-09-2012 05:14 PM

9krpmrx8 05-09-2012 05:21 PM

It's because everyone is f*^&^*ing broke.

09blueR3 05-09-2012 08:47 PM

Thanks a lot guys. I'm new to the Mazda game. Been in the Nissan (Silvia) game for awhile. I am going with Work vs-xx wheels so I need these to sale!!

09blueR3 05-10-2012 11:46 AM

Bump

Jack McCall 05-10-2012 11:53 AM

SIIIIICK wheels! but low on my list of mods. Good luck with the sale!

09blueR3 05-10-2012 03:48 PM

I'm open to trades for go fast parts!

Jack McCall 05-10-2012 04:26 PM

stickers make you go fast right? i have lots of stickers =)

09blueR3 05-10-2012 06:22 PM

Hahaha.... Stickers aren't my style. Flush, simple, and clean. That's my style. Sorry bro. That's a shit load of stickers though!

09blueR3 05-11-2012 08:28 PM

Bump! Someone needs to pick these wheels up. They are perfect.

Are-Ex-Eight 05-11-2012 09:48 PM

Tempting but price is too high. Are you including tpms?

09blueR3 05-12-2012 05:29 AM

Nope just the wheels. If you read the original post you can pick these up cheaper than $2g's. I'll trade them for a set of BRAND NEW stance gp+ coilovers. Then you only have to pay like $1,500-1,600 instead of $2,000.

wcs 05-12-2012 05:50 AM

OMG I love these rims ....

If I didn't have to put a new roof on my house <sigh>

09blueR3 05-13-2012 09:35 AM

Bump!! Someone buy these.

Are-Ex-Eight 05-13-2012 10:19 AM

I have a feeling if these are for sale when I sell my house I'll buy. That's not until November though.

09blueR3 05-14-2012 12:21 PM

I hope it doesnt take that long to sell them. They are perfect. I didnt think it would take this long. Like Ive said i'll trade for go fast parts, new coilovers, maybe some cf body parts, possible 18x10 + 15 wheels.

09blueR3 05-15-2012 12:30 PM

bump! Price drop $1500 before shipping

carrrnuttt 05-15-2012 01:11 PM

OP, if you're looking for a quicker sale, don't limit yourself to the RX-8 forums. If what I've read online is accurate, MS3 and MS6 and even non MS owners covet these rims.

I'd suggest even the Nissan forums, as being a former Nissan guy myself, I know the lug measurement is the same (not sure about center bore though), but I don't know how I feel about seeing these rims on a non-Mazda.

Mazdaspeed RX8 ver2 05-16-2012 11:10 AM

I'm interested in these, want to put this on my MS6. Is it still for sale?

09blueR3 05-17-2012 05:27 PM

yes still for sale

09blueR3 05-17-2012 05:32 PM

pm sent

G_ man 05-17-2012 08:29 PM

Man, you still have these rims. Whats going on
I'd buy them but I already got a set of those myself.
I want a set of 18"really dark smoked chrome wheels with a polished lip for the track

09blueR3 05-17-2012 09:33 PM

Yup still got em. These things are perfect also. I mean not a single
Scratch or anything. They've been sitting in boxes. Brand new ones aren't this nice.

LifeAfterRx8 05-17-2012 10:19 PM

How haven't these sold yet? $1,500 for perfect condition R3 Wheels...

09blueR3 05-18-2012 11:07 AM

I think this is a good price. I've seen the for upwards if $3k before. Am I wrong?

It's a great price but it's so hard to sell niche items like this in "this economy"

Same across all sectors. You can either practically give them away or stick it out.

The worst thing you can do is keep lowering your price and devalue the market :nono:

DeViLbOi 05-18-2012 11:24 AM

Sure...it's a great price...compared to going to Mazda. But if I can get a set of Enkei's for $1100 which would you buy? The style of the R3 wheel is great...and they are in demand...but new Enkei's vs. used OEM...the Enkei's win for me.

You can get a set of 19x8 enkeis that weigh ~21lbs for $1100?

The RP03, the only one a quick google found, would be about $1600.

Gt01s are 23 lbs and almost $500/each.

09blueR3 05-18-2012 11:44 AM

Well I'm not going any lower. I'm not in a hurry to move these wheels they are just taking up space in my shop. I appreciate all the input guys. I'm new to the Mazda scene but not the car scene.

^ That's not even taking into account that these are forged BBS rims. Here's the closest approximation I could find (BBS F1): http://goo.gl/ag4ar

^ The cheapest in that Google shopping list is $1,948.

Add to that, these are uniquely suited for rotary cars, with the rotary design built subtly into it.

DeViLbOi 05-18-2012 11:50 AM

AZ_R3 - I specifically looked for exact match to S1 stock 18x8 which Tirerack is selling RPF1's for $1100 as to me...the 19" vs 18" is a wash looks wise...weight is 4lbs less per wheel...and then new vs. used...

09blueR3 - You will find a buyer at your price in time and I wish ya luck. Just may take a bit...

Aye, good catch.

BBS > Enkei. Period. Full stop.

If you really need the money then do what you have to,but if not then keep them until some offers you what your willing to accept

yeah, 18 vs. 19 is a wash, thats why the cost is exactly the same :yelrotflm

I'll try that argument next time I buy wheels.

DeViLbOi 05-18-2012 12:24 PM

Didnt' say that the cost was the same. What I was trying to show was that from the buyers perspective you can get really nice wheels new for less than the asking price of these used wheels. If the seller is willing to wait around for someone that sees the value and wants these wheels at this price then that's great. If he wants to move them in under a week it ain't gonna happen.

nycgps 05-19-2012 07:55 AM

too bad I just got a set of Racing Hart :)

They are OEM wheels but keep in mind, they're OEM wheels for the R3 Package.
These wheels are forged BBS Wheels. Enkei's are overplayed, I've seen those on so many 8s as they're light weight affordable wheels. After you drive a mile, your wheel is considered used, there's nothing wrong with pre-owned wheels. ;)

DeViLbOi 05-21-2012 09:30 AM

As someone that bought Speed6 wheels for his RX8...I understand the form over function argument. I have never said anything negative about the R3 wheels...all I have said is...that the wheels are not a steal at this price. You can call the price fair or reasonable...but not great. At this price the OP can expect them to go in time as there are going to be a number of people that will pay $1500 for them...it just won't happen in a week.

09blueR3 05-21-2012 11:14 AM

Bump! Pm's sent pics sent to e-mails I'm really easy to reach everyone.

09blueR3 05-22-2012 06:46 PM

and a ride back to the top for mr bump!

benben01 05-22-2012 09:23 PM

OP is free to ask whatever he wants for his R3 wheels. As others mentioned, they are not getting any love due to price or lack of demand for them. Check out this craigslist ad for some E46 M3 wheels

http://washingtondc.craigslist.org/m...024805708.html

This dude has been advertising them for almost 2 years now. I shit you not. Think he gets the message?

armando_montoya01 05-24-2012 01:05 AM

do you still have them ? PM me please

09blueR3 06-24-2012 10:26 AM
