CA RX-8 Wide Grip Belt Complete Pulley Kit $400 obo

I'm not going to cut and paste the pulleys, here is the website:

http://www.srmotorsports.com/RX8_Power_Pulleys.html

i bought these for $550 about a year ago and then sold my RX-8. Now selling for $400 obo. They are blue to match the winning blue color. Still in orginal packaging.

No lowballing, i'm not in a hurry to sell these, serious buys only.

will be shipping from Oceanside, Ca. 92056

When I called and asked about the effect on the car they said everything would be fine, understand they want to sell the product. But a friend of mine had them ( which is why I bought them) and they were fine. They made him his idle run a little faster, and the went through the first couple gears a second or two faster, but they are lighter weight, that's expected. And yes they are the wide grip set. Asking price includes shipping.

The installation is really just three bolts off then back on, some belt adjusting and tightening. a mechanic could do it in less than 45 mins. It's really not that hard.
