FS: Custom Gloss Black OEM 17's

EDIT: Price lowered to $525
For sale are my custom OEM 2003-2004 sedan non-sport 17's.

I bought these wheels initially from a local G35 owner who bought his car new in 2004, and put new wheels on the day he came home. They were laying covered in his garage for 1 year with all of 5 miles on them. I initially got them to drive around on till my 20's were completed, but grew to really like their design. A big local meet was coming up and my 20's weren't in yet, so I decided to do something different with my wheels- I had my bodyshop paint them gloss black. They wheels were in flawless condition before being painted, so there was minimal prepwork involved. They used multiple coats of the gloss black paint and clearcoat, so the wheels will certainly hold up to road debris... I had the whole centercap also painted to match the wheels color, and left the Mt. Fuji logo in the chrome color.

These wheels give the car a very unique and aggressive look, as if they were setup for track duty. Also, the gloss black against the tires gives the illusion of the wheels being larger than 17" in diameter.

Everybody that knows me and my car knows how much I baby it. The wheels are FLAWLESS! The wheels/tires have 1,200 miles on them ONLY! The wheels are wrapped in the OEM equipment Goodyear Eagle RSA's 215/55/17 with 95% treadlife remaining.

I paid $475 for the wheels initially and another $300 for the custom paint. I'm asking $625 for the wheels and tires.

Here are some pics of the wheels on my car:

I testify, under penalty of something-or-other, that these are the cleanest, most well looked-after wheels & tires I've ever seen. One thing that you can guarantee with vodkarocket is his babying of his precious, and I've yet to see anything amiss with it (I hang out with him - and her [the car] - several times a month).

You can't go wrong here.

And the pics are here. Sorry for the delay guys!

As you can see, the wheels are flawless (any specs on them are simply dust that I didn't wipe away). In many of the pics, you'll notice the inner barrels of the wheels look brand new- that just goes to show the perfect, barely used condition they're in. Also, you can see the colored lines in barely used tires- they still look brand new, and have over 95% tread life remaining.
