WedsSport SA55M BBM 9.5/10.5 +15offset w/ Hankook V12 Evos (lots of pics)
Selling my last part from my part out... the wheels and tires. This is a lightweight JDM tuning wheel from Weds sport division (aptly named WedsSport).
All specs are below. There is one spot with a chip (front right wheel) which will be pointed out in the pics that is smaller than a dime and not noticable unless you are looking for it.
I accept paypal. Buyer WILL PAY FOR ANY/ALL PAYPAL FEES! Send as a gift to avoid paypal fees!
Prices
Full Set (wheels and tires) - $2600 + Shipping
4 Wheels Only - $2000 + Shipping
4 Tires Only - $600 + Shipping
I would love local pickup but if you want it shipped you will help offset the shipping costs.
Fair Warning: All totalled this is near as makes no difference 200 pounds which will add up quickly in shipping... I will not eat the shipping costs, it isnt free for me and it won't be free for you. Have had issues in the past with people wanting free shipping so just saying.

R: 19x10.5 +15mm, 22.0lbs

Casting and Forging
Generally, the advantage of casting is that it melts aluminum alloy at high temperature and pours into a mold to form as one so the designing flexibility on the disc is pretty high thus it’s easy to mass produce and cost effective. On the other hand, from technical stand point, it’s hard to reduce weight since it’s difficult to form into thin metal. Also what was formed through casting is often uneven and particles are not cohesive therefore its strength is not good enough. On the other side, forged wheels are made by running a lump of aluminum or alloy into high-pressure pressing machine thus aluminum particles spread and formed according to wheel shape and it is stronger (Fiber Flow). Because of the way they are produced, forged wheels can be made light-weight. It seems like it’s perfect but there is a definite weakness of “It’s not flexible from design perspective. It has already been explained, forging process uses high rate of weight to form the shape consequently, it is not suitable for complicated cosmetic face design. Forging also has a disadvantage of being more expensive due to multi-processing.
"New method of manufacturing process" to make up for the weakness is born.
In AMF, first of all, simultaneously cast rim and disc. Secondary, cast disc (= rim material) is to be put through wheel-only spinning processor and roll the rim. It realizes more flexible and tenacious strength by having aluminum material’s crystal and macro formation get further detailed through being forged in this process. As a result, high-strength rim with “stretch strength,” “durability,” and “spread” which are basic characters required for aluminum wheels, is born. Now it is possible to create high-precision rim that is seamless tube as compared to the type that forms a sheet material into a ring through welding. AMF on disc surface is normally casted, it keeps design-flexibility, but it contributes to reduction of under spring load because the rim-part is spread thin as much as possible by spinning machine. Such new method of manufacturing process method is AMF which has the merit of both casting and forging. AMF was newly created the WedsSport brand concept “Faster, Safer.” New generation technology improved in motor sports enters the scene with superb performance.

Come with set (4) hubcentric rings! Will also throw in the Muteki Blue Lugs (non-locking) as well if interested! I do not have center caps unfortunately.
Original Box:
The finish on these is very unique. Depending on the way the light hits it (or doesn't) you can see blue, purple, and black. The lighter blue parts are machined finished hence the Blue Black Machining (BBM) color. I have never seen another G with this color on. I have seen the grey/gunmetal and it looked phenomenal.

Yes they need to be cleaned off a bit but thats just some dust from the garage
Gives an idea of the different shades of light:
Tires - 108 lbs total (for shipping calc)
F: Hankook Ventus V12 Evo K110 245/35/19, ~85-90% Tread Left, 25.4lbs
R: Hankook Ventus V12 Evo K110 275/35/19, ~85-90% Tread Left, 28.4lbs
Note: These tires are some of the best and have had hardly any miles on them at all with tons of tread life left. They run new $220 and $250 (plus tax) respectively from most any site (tirerack, discount tire, ebay, etc).

LOTS OF TREAD LEFT!

the rims are $2400 brand new from Ravspec plus free shipping, $2000 plus shipping it a very unreasonable deal for USED rims with imperfections.

cool story bro!
one small nick... singular imperfection
and I should know as I bought them from ravspec in dec of 2010. knocking 400 off for wheels with under 5k in miles with extremely minor damage ain't bad.
plus free shipping on 80 pounds? hell no. ravspec does volume and can maybe afford that but I can't.
price isn't firm tho so feel free to counter offer but get links to other sales up out of my thread
