Are those Ray Forged wheels? Either way; very nice choice. Hope you can get a pair soon.

 

No those are cast. Not the same as teh coupe 19s. But they are nice. Interesting choice for 18s I must say.

 

why are these so difficult to find in Canada? there must be plenty of 05-06 owners who have gone aftermarket from the oem sport wheel. i have seen these pop up numerous times on the US forum, or ebay etc... but have yet to find them in Canada.

i've been looking for 6-8 months as well...

 

Hey Swivelman!

I may have a set of these wheels off my Sport 05 sedan. One wheel was repaired by the dealer before I purchased it as part of the deal but now
it appears to have some paint issues. It has been rubbed off in areas probably from a car wash at the dealer.

Are you interested at all? I can takes photos tomorrow and show you. Otherwise, the rest of the wheels are good. The fronts have around 15,000kms and the rears have approximately 40-50% tread left.

BTW, I have just picked up a set of 19" wheels which will not be here until
2 weeks after...

Regards,

Eric, thanks for the reply! I would like to see some pics, yes.

 

Wheel 1 - worst condition wheel. Was repaired by the dealer due to
rashes. But now it appears to have paint peeling off in a couple of areas
from car washes.

 

Wheel 2 - have nicks from normal wear around the nutwells.

 

Wheel 3 - appears to have been repaired as well and have some paint
peeling off in 2 areas. Again, this is due to the dealer using pressure washer on the wheels.

 

Wheel 4 - looks to be in good condition.

 

Fronts have around 15,000kms on them.

 

Rears have less thread - my guesstimate is around 40-50% thread

 

Let me know what you think. Update: it looks like 2 wheels were repaired and both have paint peeling off. Thanks!

 

Thanks for posting the pics Eric, I appreciate your taking the time to do that. To be honest, they're a bit worse off than I imagined. I'd have to look into how much to repair those peeling rims.

Canucklehead, if you're interested, I don't have any 'dibs' here. I'm more interested in something I don't have to repair.

 

No worries Swivelman. I know they are not the best set around but they are not that bad either. I am going to see to how much to repair them as I can keep them as spare. Good luck finding a perfect set as there is not very many of the sport sedans around.

 

where are you located, eric? if you are local to the lower mainland (Metro Vancouver) i would at least like to inspect them in person to further assess their condition.

swivel - thx for the green light, i was chomping at the bit but you were here first.
