SOLD

I have been asking $350 for these since the bent one was supposed to be repairable for $85 at Sierra Wheel Repair and they have some Summer tires with some life left on them. This morning I took the bent rim to SWR and Roger tried to fix it, but he just called and said that it still has a slight wobble that he can't completely fix. To be honest, I barely noticed the wobble before he worked on it, even when it was mounted in the front. But props to Roger and his business for being honest about not feeling he was able to fully repair the wheel and therefore not charging me anything.

The other three wheels balanced just fine when I had the tires flipped recently. The paint isn't perfect on them, but they look good from 5 feet away or whatever. I have used Rota Touchup paint and clearcoat on them. I'll include the leftover Rota paint and clearcoat with the sale. They are gunmetallic in color. Let me know if you'd like pics. I'd keep them, but I want to go 17X8 and I'm moving soon. The first $200 takes them.
