I love when that happens.

I think it was the full-size version of your sig pic where I first noticed those rims did that. I was freakin' impressed. Now I like to hang my head out the window like a dog and stare at the reflection while I'm driving down the road.

Mesmerizing.

I have a feeling these aren't going to go for so cheap though.

they went for $465.20 shipped, and aviator won!

I made an offer to the seller with the swoopies/wtires last week. I don't know what his reserve price was. that was his second listing for them. I saw the 5 spokes listed and bid on them. Should be arriving on Monday.

They look in pretty good shape to me. just arrived this afternoon. The other two are in the same condition. No rust, or bent rims.

Haro, did you measure the rims that you got. Mine measures 18 1/2" outside diameter. Hope these will fit the 17" tires I have now.

They are standard 17" wheels. Don't measure the lip...
