19x8.5 wheels made my Enkei

Item: A&L Racing 388

Color: Hyper Silver

Manufacturer: Enkei

Forged: According to Enkei, these wheels are M.A.T. forged.

Size: 19 X 8.5

Bolt pattern: 5x114.3

Offset: +42

Clear the Brembos (on an Acura TL)? YES!

Tires: General Exclaim UHP 245/35/19

Reason for Selling: I need the money.

Info w/ regards to the wheels: These wheels were designed by Import Drag Racing legend Adam Saruwata. As mentioned above, they are manufactured by Enkei, using their M.A.T. Forged technology. (http://www.enkei.co.jp/en/t_mat.html) I’ve checked various websites, and the lowest price I’ve found so far was $379/wheel. Cheapest I found online

Info w/ regards to the tires: General? Who the hell are they? Apparently, they are owned by Continental (someone please correct me if I’m wrong, but that’s what I read). These tires, imo, are exellent, especially for the price you pay ($127 each at tirerack.com), you cannot go wrong. About 95% tread is still there. (Only on the car for 2000 miles)

Also, here’s more info from tirerack.com: Info on General Exclaim UHP

Total retail price:
$379/wheel x 4 = $1516
$127/tire x 4 = $508
Total = $2024

Asking price: $1600 plus shipping
I would prefer local, that way I wouldn’t have to deal w/ shipping, but I am willing to ship at the buyer’s expense. Unfortunately, because I’m not too familiar with paypal system (w/ regards to receiving money), I will ask for check or money order.

Pics:





More pics to come tomorrow!

They wont fit a Z or G coupe unless you're using 15mm spacers. They'll fit the G sedan just fine tho.
