CA 18x9.5 +45 Enkei RPF1 w/ 275/35/18 RT615 + TPMS

This setup needs little introduction. One pair of tires has tons of meat left (pictured) whereas the other pair is at the wear bars. My lack of time caused me to never rotate the tires, quite foolish in retrospect.

No bends, cracks, etc! Some marks from mounting tires but nothing drastic. Yes, I did spray down the wheels just before pics, you can even see some leftover brake dust - it is not paint damage.

The wheels are located in the 818 area code of southern california but I'm willing to meet up as far South as San Diego and as far north as Ventura area.

Asking price for wheels + tires + 4 TPMS installed is $1050

I will ship, demount tires, and take TPMS out but all at the buyer's cost.





That smudge on the tire was some sort of plant that I ran over just before taking the wheels off, not some weird wear on the tire

~I am in no super need of cash and may entertain partial trades as well~

I've got some "limited color" Work VS-XX 18x8.5 and 18x9.5 with practically new BFG G-Force tires, worth a good $2200. Interested in a trade plus $1000???

Just throwing it out there. I love RPF1

If you wanted to work something out for the VS-XX minus the tires I may be interested, shoot me a PM if you want to try and work something out.

Thanks for the <3 guys

Just throwing this out there.... Straight trade for a set of Silver 5zigen FN01R-c's? One rim is brand new, not even mounted on the car yet. Rear tires are brand new (Falken Ziex ZE-912), they have about 600 miles on them.

18 x 8.5 in the front
18 x 9.5 in the rear

Just an FYI for you. The Work VS-XX is a wheel that has to be ordered from Japan if you want a fitment. These wheels cost $760 a piece NOT including shipping. Mine are a limited edition "rare" set and probably less than a dozen exist in this color in the US. I have a good $4200 tied up into these wheels and tires. Plus a wait on recieving them. You can't buy these anymore. I was going out on a limb even offering these up for the RPF1's, but I want to get some track time in this season. I am definately having second thoughts about letting these go. Oh, and another thing, is that the VS-XX is a true 3-piece wheel and wider lips are available, to increase the rim width... future plans for mine.


Now we know LOL

RenesisX-8 - lets not let this get too off topic - Alex will give one fair response to your post and lets leave any *potential* argument at that.

Polak - Sorry man, can't make it happen for the FN01's, I appreciate the offer though!

Guys I'm working on different package pricing (w/ or w/o TPMS/tires/Etc) but I will tell you the package deal will most likely be the cheapest! Thanks for the replies and PMs, If I haven't gotten back to you yet I will soon!

No need to school me on wheels... you paid about twice as much as you should have. Your color isn't "limited edition". You can order them in any color you want, it's just an extra option, and yes you can still buy them despite what you may have been told.

Again, nice wheels, just had to set some facts straight.

Back on topic!

Tilt, I am currently deployed in Iraq for the next 5 months. If you are in no desperate need of cash, could we work out some sort of paypal lay-a-way plan? If not, then I can most likely get the scratch together by the end of the month..

*Edit* Disregard that lay-a-way junk, I can have the loot in a matter of days. If no one else has dibs, I want em. Just let me know the shipped cost as is, with tires. I just have to go to my finance office and have money transferred. (piggy bank squeals in mortal fear)

Hey! I'm deployed to Iraq too! I've been here for over a year and don't go back until June! Thats all irrelevant though. The point is, do your country a service and sell me your wheels...What kind of tires are those btw, Falken Azenis'?
