Wheels Feeler/Maido III Rims F/S

I have had these 19" Maido III GR5 rims 19x8.5 Front and 19x10 rear
for about 8-10 months now and I am not feeling the ride difference between the 18" stock rims I had before, They look good but the ride comfort was alot better with the 18" and the tire cost is crazy for the 19's.

so I have just won an auction for a set of 18" rims to put on and will be thinking about selling these 19's when they come in, I am not in any hurry I just wanted to though a feeler out to see if anyonoe would be interested
I really just want to make enough on these to cover as much of the new tires and balance as I can.

First thing is the girl who owned them before me must have curbed them because all four appear to have some rash on them, I don't know what it would cost to have them reconditioned but someone who is more in the know will prob. be able to get these repairs and still make out ahead of the retail cost of them.

I know that these are less then perfect so any thoughts about what I may be able to get for them would be appreciated.

from the Pic's you can see the road rash is very light, the rear hardly at all
you really have to look close to see and you can almost see it on the the third pic, I just want to really get this out there, I guess I may be overly **** about it but I wanted to really make sure I stress that these rims need to be reconditioned in my opinion.
but they are very expesive rims that go for well over 3K
I was thinking 1k shipped with the tires which may have another 6 months of life on them.

I am just dropping in the remarks I had for another memeber, I may not be parting with these just yet

First thing is the guy I was buying the replacment wheels from, fell through on the deal so I am not getting the 18" rims I wanted.

second is the offset I will have to get but I think the fronts are 26mm, not too sure but from the pics you can see they fit perfectly with no rubbing at all and clear my Brembo brakes.

Last is I may have to wait a little before I find a set of rims I like to replace these, unless I get an offer I can't refuse.

Sorry

Tony
