There ya go. Contact them about them. They have them listed in their catalog, but I dont know if that means they actually have them or not. It kinda sounds like they have them though. Good luck either way .

Here is the deal

They sell them for &155 us each, thats $620. I think I will try to find them cheaper, if not I will buy something else.

Also I live in Canada and the exchange rate ain't so good, its about $1000 Canadian plus shipping.

That's alot a cash for used rims.

Before you spend the $$$, check the archives. In an older thread, someone said they weren't as good in real life as they looked in the picture....wouldn't want you spending all that money just to be pissed off.

If you want to do that, send me $1000 and I'll sleep with your girlfriend...

It says that they would if they have them...IF they have them .

~T.J.

All WHEELS are refinished in "as new" MINT condition, and sold with a Limited Lifetime Warranty against material defect. Listed Prices are per wheel, and a SET consists of 4 wheels. Center caps may be included in wheel pricing if available, or may be priced separately if not in stock. Please note that pricing is subject to change, so call or email to confirm price and availability on the wheels you are interested in.
