I think I have a buyer lined up, but in case that falls through I'd like to get the jump on finding out if anyone wants these.

They're 16 inch American Racing "Spyder" rims with 205/50 Ultra HPR Radial GT tires on them. The rims I've used on my 91 before and they have about 25000 miles of use, but the tires have less than 120 miles.

I put a new set of rubber on the rims when I bought the 96 two weeks ago and there's something wrong with the car that won't let me use these rims. The steering wheel wobbles all over the place when these are on the 96. There is an almost imperceptable shake in my steering wheel with the factory 15 inch wheels and 55 series tires, and the problem gets very much worse with the 16 inch wheels and 50 series tires. These wheels work absolutely fine on the 91, so there's nothing wrong with them, it's my car that has the problem.

I've already bought a set of 15 inch rims to replace the factory ones hoping the light shimmy in the steering wheel will stay that way and I won't need to fix something in the drivetrain or suspension, at least for a while. I need to move these.

I don't want to disclose price just yet, the potential buyer said he'd let me know for sure today, but if it falls through I'm open for others who are interested. I have a picture of the wheels on my 96 in my profile. I'll try to add another (I think we can have three pics total) that show them off better. I also have pics of just the wheels and tires as well as what they look like on my 91 I'm trying to sell.
