Pirelli Snow Tires w/ Moda F6 rims - Long Island, NY

Ok, here is the story: I purchased these off this board a few weeks ago for my '06 G35 Sedan 6MT. I soon realized that they did not fit. These were taken off an '03 G35 Coupe. In the process of attempting to fit them on my car, I ended up scratching the INSIDE of the rim on my calipers. The scratches were basically surface scratches that went to the paint. This only happened on the 2 FRONT wheels, as the rears have smaller brake rotors, and were unharmed. On the 2 wheels that were damaged, I ended up sanding down the scratches, priming and putting on a combined 5 coats of wheel paint and gloss. The backs of the wheels look just about as good as new.
Besides, you can barely see the backs once they are mounted, and you will definitely not see where they were scratched. The fronts of the wheels were unharmed whatsoever. They are in great shape as you can see from the pictures. There is only one noticable bit of curb rash that I have taken a close up of. It looks to be about an inch long, if that much. 3 of the tires have 3K miles on them and one of the front tires (I think it is the passenger) has only 400 miles on it. This is the setup:

4 Moda 17" Moda F6 rims
2 Pirelli 225/50/R17 - fronts
2 Pirelli 225/55/R17 - rears
Stainless Steel valve stems and covers
Chrome lugs with associated lugwrench adapter
All wheels are balanced, tire pressure set, and ready to roll

All tires are labeled as to where they should go on the car, however they are unidirectional, should you want to rotate them perpendicularly. I was told that this setup basically makes the car like a tank in the snow. I ended up having to get a set of 18" rims and snows to fit my particular setup, so I didn't get a chance to play with these in the snow.



Please note that this setup will NOT fit any '06 coupes or sedans with the 6MT option, as the rotors are too large. If you have either of these cars, do not buy this setup.

A similar setup cost $1,200 + tax new from tirerack. I am selling them for $700. I would prefer local pickup, as these could potentially be expensive to ship , depending on where you are in relation to NY. I will drive up to 20 miles to meet you if you are far away, but I can only do this on the weekend, as I work very late and commute to and from Manhattan.

Below are pics as referenced. I have tried to be as descriptive as possible, and provide as much information as I can, but I may have missed something. An questions, please reply or PM me. I know I do not have a reputation on this board, but if you need a reference, you can see my perfect feedback on Ebay - ID: Boomer775. Thanks!

tires and rims

Hey man-
I saw these for sale a few ago on here from some other guy, i am assuming these are the same ones. I was a bit weary about the fit myself.
So will these fit an 04 coupe automatic?

If so, i live in Danbury, Connecticut area. Let me know what the shipping is, i'd rather u ship them then me go pick them up.

sorry but another bump. Is global warming keeping everyone away from snow tires this year?
