    Brand New 16x8 Diamond Racing Steelies

    Ok so a lot of R3V'ers are misinformed and are making some false assumptions so let me break down what these wheels will cost you If bougt new...
    16x8 pro series is $116 a piece. So 116x4= $464. Now lets not forget that diamond racing steelies are pretty heavy and shipping will cost right around $100...so now we are 564 dollars.
    The tires are Goodyear eagle F1's and per good years site http://m.goodyear.com/en-US/tires/eagle-f1-gs-d3 they are starting at 295 a tire, so about $1200. Now we are well over $1,600 and you have to figure that the DR steelies are made to order so AFTER you pay you need to Wait about a month for them to even ship them to you.

    Of course I don't want anything close to that, but keep in mind that the steelies are 2 weeks old and the tires have about 50-60% tread left

    Ok, now proceed to read my FS ad, educated.


    16x8 +12 offset.
    I have 5 mm spacers as well
    Tires are Goodyear Eagle F1 205/45/16 - decent amount of tread left

    some of them got a little chipped from shipping but nothing major. not curbed, never scuffed. in almost perfect condition. About 2 weeks old as of 9/26/12 .

    diamond makes these wheels to order, so if you were to order them yourself it could take about a month to get to you.

    Prefer local pickup, but not totally against shipping.

    Asking 700

                    Haha you're here too! I'm also wondering what it would be to ship without tires. 750 with tires sounds premium..

                      68 a wheel direct?! you guys have no clue what you are talking about...it's $116 a wheel direct, plus shipping cost, plus waiting time to get to you( about a month) then you have to take into consideration tire cost.

                      if you want to thread shit, make sure you know what you're talking about first. I'm not going to sell to you or your buddy, go buy a honda.

                        I have a 2006 civic hybrid, bought since new. =)

                        I'm clearly asking if you're willing to part, not to thread bash you. 750 just sounded on the high side because steel wheels usually do not price hike from its original value. Lesson learned for me, sounds like a deal.

                        Cheers!
