FS: 17" Nice Wheels + High-Performance Snow Tires (Blizzaks) + TPMS

I was selling these on craigslist Seattle, but realized that I should probably be posting them on here too, since I bought them for the RX-8 and they have a TPMS set in them. I'm asking 650$ for them on CL without the TPMS, but I'll throw in the TPMS with it if an RX8 owner picks them up. The tires actually turn the 8 into a snow car. I borrowed my parents' snows for their RX-8 last winter before I bought these and drove up to Whistler through a snow storm with them, and they were fantastic, so I bought the same tires (LM-25s) for these. The wheels look surprisingly good on the 8 too.

I'd definitely be keeping these if my next cars would fit them at all, but they're going to be an Elise and an SUV, so no luck there. Time to pass them on.

Set of 17"x7" ET35 American Racing alloy wheels, barely used. Combo lug pattern 5x100/5x114.3 (5x4.5). 500$ when new.

Tires are Bridgestone Blizzak LM-25, their aggressive performance snow tire. Tires are 225/45/17. You won't find a better dry- or wet-handling snow tire on the market. Used only for a few hundred miles (two trips to Crystal). Tires look brand new. 650$ when new.
