    FT/FS: sexy NIB 16" ARE 3-piece wheels

    Okay- I literally just got these wheels today and the PO said they're 4x100. Turns out they're not Adapt these onto your car, adapters to 4x114.3 or 4x108 are $45 each online (adaptitusa.com, or ebay:

    They're 16x7, 4x108 and 4x114.3 afaik, and have 5" of back spacing. I have about an inch from the edge of the wheel to my coil. THey are true 3 piece wheels (no welds) and are NIB but have a few surface scratches & nicks from storage. No centercaps, but there are some on ebay.

    Trades: WILL add cash on top, so show me something nice? I'll sell outright too if anyone is interested for pretty cheap.

      There is exactly 125mm of backspacking- from the mounting pad to what would be the edge of the back of the wheel. Plenty room for adapters IMO.

      EDIT: They are ET25

          I have some wheels I'll trade, let me know if you are interested in some Borbet Type C's? Even if not I am interested in outright sale price as well.

              hexagon.
              most of adapters run in a 1 inch or thicker, so final offset will be 0. :O

              interested in 16x9 k5 all around?..add cash on your side.

                I meant ET25 sans adapters, of course. I'm not sure what K5s are. Keskin KT5s?

                    The centercaps actually look like this and the screw into the wheel above a trim ring

                    Great price for the wheels as it cost me that much to have mine repolished.

                      Adapters at 1" & an et of 25 give an effective et mounted on a e30 of et 1. The guy who runs those would have to be goofy no matter how good of a deal they are.

                        How do you figure 'goofy'? With an ET of 1, they would stick out 1 inch further outside.

                        There are tons of people who are running wheels much wider than that. For example, a Borbet type A that's 16x9 and et15 would stick out 11mm more than 15x7 et1's would.
