How much? With tires? If so, tread wear? You have some fender work too right? Cuz I feel like 8.5 is too big..I hate rubbing like no other. Old accord had Mexican spoke rims..LOL..and it was slammed and the thing always rubbed. Never wanna go thru that again. But I'm a 4x4 right now
What are you rollin on now? The Aspec? If so I say keep the volks and sell me the aspecs..especially if they're chrome. Don't see any pics of them in your vanquish profile.

Im looking to get $2500 w/ toyo proxes 4 (235/35/19) Tread wear is even with minimal camber wear. One tire has some ninja slices in the from rubbing on fender tab before i rolled them. There is only one wheel with any damage other than wear and tear. And its nicks in the lip edge from the wheel falling over...Luckily chrome likes hiding nicks so its not terribly noticeable.

So yes i do have fender work done, but thats because im running 10 and 16mm spacers. Specs on them are 19x8.5 +39 offset.

The ASPECs are the 2004 18x8.5 Sparkle Silver finish. They kinda have a spot with me since my car came with them, and at one point i actually sold them...but to my step-brother so when i realized my mistake i was able to buy them back. Granted they are pretty battle worn, but all the damage is from the previous owner. Since they are damaged id rather run them and sell the Volks so i dont ruin the volks come winter time.

Here is a on car pic of the ASPECs



Check my flickr (link in sig) if you wanna see more.

^ Damn...I really want some aspecs. I def woulda taken that finish too. Frickin Pete has got me on the hunt for them after seein how good they look on his car. I like that size too..the 18x8.5..but prices for those bad boys reflect how hard they are to find.
Sry Kyle, your rims are just too rich for my blood. Just started school and def don't have that kinda money

I'm actually lookin at the RJ Inspyres in 18" satin silver..silver shoes on my SSM
I'm estimating the whole setup is gonna run me about 1800 max with new tires..which I desperately need..I'm on the wear bars on my zexius after 30k which I found to be a little quick..and an alignment cuz my steering wheel is crooked when goin straight and she pulls slightly to the right.

No big deal, im really only looking to sell them if i get the right amount im looking for them. These wheels are fairly rare, and ive only ever seen them on 2 different cars. And those were not even in person.

a specs can be had for cheap if you keep an eye out for a while. Took me about 5 months before I found mine in seattle for $350 =), it was either that or 3 piece racing harts but I would be too paranoid rocking the RH.

yea, meets were all kids but they do get an insane amount of people. But with so much people there are always someone to do something stupid. Since AZ has so many members my age, I'm sure it will be a lot better..........as long as people show up.
