^^^^HOLY....good observation!!! Thanks for catching this!! This dish itself is chrome, but the spokes/wheel itself isn't!! ugh..and I had even sent an offer! THANKYOU everyone for the observation, think I'll stick to actually orderin' them straight from Japan.

Does he have less than 1k miles on the wheels and tires and are flawless? Also with 0 offset on an 11" rear does he even have a fender anymore? My Wheels sit flush with the fenders and do NOT rub. His car must of looked really funny.

Also I will need to check on the color name They are brushed on the spokes and have black on the outside and inner with a polished lip. You have to wait 4 months to get these from Japan as well as pay shipping etc. I am not going to sell if I dont get my asking price as I love these wheels, but could use the cash.

actually i've seen a few car's w/ 0 offsets..and no, it doesn't look "funny". Just because you wanted to avoid rolling your fenders does not mean that your offsets are the correct offsets for the car, it just depends how aggressive you want to go, and what modifications you're willing to make to get that stance to work successfully.

Also, out of every single quote I've gotten, the manufacturer always has quoted me "shipped", again, brand new wheels, same price you're asking, OH, and not to mention, 100% BC, not brushed spokes. I'm lucky you didn't accept my offer!

...GL w/ the sale

So they are not the rare black chrome? They are just the regular BP finish?

Great looking wheels, but you definitely need to do some research and rethink your price John. You're not in the ballpark. I understand not wanting to take a huge loss, but in that case you should just keep them.

FYI: I have 0 offset on my Varianza T1S....and that's on a sedan. It looks funky at the moment a lil because it needs a little more pull. It's on a 10.5", but still, if we're talking about an 11 with 0 offset on a coupe, it could still be more aggressive and look right. You don't always have to use wide and thick tires Anyhow, GLWS.

They are the Black Polish, which im my opinion look better than black chrome.

UN-owned.

again people, like I said I am in no rush to sell and am not going to sell if I do not get the price I want, so if you cant afford them go buy the Sevas s55 and call it a day, you get what you pay for.

Thanks

LOL! You want to play this game?

Each and every one of the dealers had quotes with tires, which MOUNTING and BALANCING were FREE. and yeah, "WAIT TIME IS ZERO" as you said.

Black Polish...over Black Chrome? ....not in a million years bud.
