FS: Widened Factory 17" Aero wheels (rear 9.25")

I have a set of rear aero sedan 17" stock rims that were widened and factory color matched to my existing rims. I ran these for about 2500 miles with no issues. They actually balanced up better than the stock rims. I ran them with a 10mm spacer and they fit great. My car was lowered 1" with Eibachs. Tires are a 275/40/zr17 Azenis RT-615 tire.

I am asking $700 plus shipping ( about $125 ). Car has been sold.

New album created.


Rims are 9.25" wide now. The rims were actually made out of 4 rims that I got off of this forum. They cut 2 rims on the lathe close to the face and 2 rims close to the back side. Because of the taper of the rim the 2 new halves actually slide into each other and overlap by about 1". They were then double welded on the inside and outside edges of the overlap so they are extremely strong...almost like a forged 2 piece wheel that has been welded. They balanced at the tire shop better than the factory cast 1 piece units. This was a worry of mine as well but after seeing how little weight they took to balance my worries were gone. The guy who did then for me does alot of rims for Volvo and Mustang guys but usually they are just 2 halves butted together with a band of aluminum in the center. He was very happy with how these rims worked out. I had a local body shop do the paint color match to my spare tire that I left with them. Color match was dead on. They do a lot of work for the local BMW, Porshe, and Mercedes dealers.

I did use the factory sedan aero 17's with the coupe Brembo's at one point. I had to use a spacer on the front but the rears cleared just fine.

To clarify....as in the original post.....this is for a set of widened rims for the rear of the car only, not for a set of 4 rims.
