FS: OEM Evolution VIII wheels
 

Hey Crew,

This is more of a gauging interest kind of deal. I have a set of Mitsubishi Evolution VIII OEM Enkei wheels. I've been sitting on them for quite a few years. These wheels came off of my 2003 Evo VIII within three months of owning the car. I ordered my Evo from Japan and obtained one of the first fifty ever sent to US soil, so I am the sole owner of this set of wheels.

I recently threw them on my RX8 while I waited for my new wheels to arrive. They are 17 x 8 with a +35 offset. They fit perfectly on the RX8 and they look pretty decent. I don't know if there is much of a market here for them, but they are exceptionally light and would make a great track wheel or a dedicated winter wheel. I unfortunately don't have the weight of the wheel, but I can do a little research for those who would like to know.

They are in excellent condition, with one very small area of rash that is hardly noticeable unless I point it out. I can take more pics, but like I said, I was just gauging interest. I would be looking for $450 plus shipping for the wheels. The wheels are wrapped in the stock tires, which are Yoko Advans, size 235/45 17. They have quite some camber wear from tracking the tires, but I'd consider throwing them in for a little extra coin. I'm thinking $650 for the whole setup. Offers welcome. Let me know if there's interest.

Bump...No interest?

i'm surprised no one has any interest yet. they're good looking wheels.

2 things:
1. are all 4 tires good for at least 3 months of use?
2. would you be willing to sell the tires seperate?

you've sparked my interest and I asked my buddy to sell me his evo 8 rims and he is for dirt cheap, not saying your price isn't fair which it is. (I also like the weight reduction!)

I will snap some tire pics tomorrow, if that's cool. I'm a Firefighter and on my way to work for the next 24 hours, so I won't be able to jump back on here until monday. I would say 3 months of tire use is definately possible, but it obviously varies based upon your driving style. I'll take a good look at them today and let you know. If not, I can very easily strip the tires off for anyone who just wants the wheels. If these don't sell, I may just end up keeping them as my winter wheels.

ok well let me know about the tires! thanks
man

also do these have TPMS or will it trip that code?

Hey. Sorry I didn't get pics up yet. I looked the tires over and they have WAY more camber wear on the inner tread than I first thought. I'm not even considering selling these tires with the wheels anymore. I'm not comfortable giving a fellow member tires that may potentially be unsafe, so just the wheels will be up for sale. I'm sorry. The outer tread looks great, but when I got down and really examined the inner tread, it is just bad. Sorry again!

so..^^

:scratchhe

GL...

Sooo...what? I'm confused. I already said the tires were worn way more than I was comfortable with, so I wasn't going to include them in the sale or seperate them and sell just the tires. I can take pics of worn-out tires, if you want, but I'm not selling them, so...:pfanndina

Oh, and no TPMS.

Bump...Like it or not, winter IS coming and these would be great winter wheels. Anyone?

Ooh - have an idea what shipping would cost to California - 94025?

Shipping will cost roughly $25 per wheel...so a hondo should cover it. I can possibly get it done for cheaper so consider that a worst case scenario price.

Bump...these would make perfect winter wheels! Cheaper than 18 s for tires

Still up for Grabs?

still have
