FS: Enkei RS5 Rims w/ Kumho 712 Ecsta tires
I'm selling 4 Enkei RS5 rims with Kumho 712 Ecsta tires. The rim size is 17X7. 3 rims are size 5-114.3 & 5-100 and 1 rim is 5-100 & 5-112 so initially it would fit only cars with with a bolt pattern of 5-100. . There is some minor curb scuffs to the rims, but in good condition. Includes the spline tuners and key (or lugnuts)that will fit in the rims and the tires are still in good condition. The tires still have 70 - 80% tread left on them. Asking $380 for everything. I'm located in the bay area (California) and I'm willing to meet anywhere in the bay area with reasonable distance. But for those who are outside of the bay area, I'm willing to ship it to your location. If interested email me at nautex16@aol.com.





he said $60 shipping from Vallejo, Ca to Jersey 07307
i might buy them but its a lot of money [for me anyway] and hes far from me so i can't make sure theyre as good as they look/ as good as he says. anyone in the area want to take a look for me? [ok maybe im pushing it there but it doesnt hurt to ask, if anyone wants to do me a favor ]
tell me what you guys think.

For around 450$ if you like them its worth the money... I would check your local Craigslist as well.

$380 for everything??? ffs thats a steal, the tires alone cost that much. Jump on it!!!

doooooo it

Those are some nice rims.

Thats a good deal

i like em Steph

i wanna know where he got 60 shipping quotes. Cuz USPS charges like 80 just for rims, and they were the cheapest i found. So if he got a 60 quote for the rims PLUS tires, he must have some kinda connections.

thanks guys!

i think i was most suspicious of the shipping being so cheap

edit: i emailed him saying if he wants to wait two weeks until i get paid again i'll buy them. i wish i had the money right now but its all going to the remaining manual swap parts (just motor mounts and shifter left w00t)

he doesnt want to use paypal b/c of fees and security scares...are there even fees?
so he wants me to just deposit the money in his bank account...
i dont want to do that

is there a safer way to do this exchange?

have him meet u in kansas with the rims. give him cash, take the rims, done deal.

>

haha
who wants to go to kansas?

[no offense to anyone from kansas ]

>

toto?

lol...
anyone have a logical answer?

kansasians

>>>>>>IMO.....love the rims, as I like ENKEI, and don't like Korean Tires KUMHO.>>>>>>

if its too good to be true then it mostly likely is, deposit the money straight into his bank account? f*ck that, i've been around to know not to do that, tell him its either paypal, you guys meet up, or no deal! be careful man, i dont wanna see you get hurt

$380 for everything is extremely cheap... Just the tires alone might cost over $380

>

if there gonna meet, im coming along.

i told him id pay with paypal
and if he doesnt like that i suggested he look into the UPS and FedEx Collect on Delivery option where i pay for everything at the door when they deliver it and they send the requested amount back to the sender...but i dont know much about that

he hasnt said anything back yet

he said paypal is fine
i gave him my shipping info
said hed try to send it out later today
i told him to expect 450 on fri morning
(assuming nothing happens with my paycheck )

hopefully they are as good as they look
thanks for all the input!

good luck! i'd love to have those rims :-(

There's someone is selling a set like new (no tires) off tamparacing.com for $300. I was supposed to buy them but i couldn't meet up, but i think im getting 18x7.5 racing hart mesh wheels

Steve

i got two of them yesterday!

so far so good...the curb damage is sooo minor and its only on one of them. of course the curbage on my stockers are soo much worse so almost anything would be better

and the tires are practically brand new...like they were driven home then taken off and sold.

i cant wait to get the other two, expecting them on thurs
