My friend bought these for like 2k altogether. He used them for 6 months then got a different car & doesn't want these anymore. He said if I want them I can have them for $200 - 300. The wheels alone were like $230 a piece....

I'm not sure I'd like them on my car. Before I saw them I was hoping they were going to look more like Coomer's rims biggrin.gif ahhh well. I have time to think about it...!

I know some of you have rims like these, so if possible could you post pics of ur cars w/ these rims? thanks!! biggrin.gif biggrin.gif

they are 17's

I like those wheels more than your current chrome ones. I'd buy them if the tires are good...that's a great price.

i would purchase them for the cheap price and if you dont like it, just sell them to get some profit. im sure ppl would want them. i like these rims better than the ones you have also.. not a fan of bling bling chrome -R

Are they brand names? They don't look like would cost $2000 at all... looks kinda bleh... But if you're talking about $200, just buy them and resell somewhere else if you don't like'em.

Yeah thats just a copy of the 10 spoke Volk wheels with the studs in them, definately not an original that costs even close to that ammount. (you can see a logo on the spoke- Volk only has their name on the center cap.)

Regardless thats still a very good deal on those wheels, and im sure they'd look great. thumbsup.gif

Heres mywhite94celicagt's car with a similar design-

Yeah I didnt think they looked like they cost 2K either even if the tires cost $230 a piece. I'll ask him though. He said they are a gun metal color but look more silver in the pics....

Ill ask him what brand they are! Maybe he will trade me...mine for his wink.gif yeah right...

100% exactly sure on those numbers but I know the grand total came out
