OEM 370Z wheelstires for sale...

AlphaSnacks

Would you be willing to do $800 picked up for these? I'm local in NY, Nassau.

I'm a reputable MY350Z member, if it makes any difference. I go by the same name there.

Thes 18" OEM wheels he still has were mine... They were on my car for just about 1,000 miles. I got a flat from a sharp item on the road that slashed my tire at 500 miles and replaced it with the OEM yoko advan that comes with it. Not a pothole or anything even noticable, the light came on, I pulled over and had a leak coming from the rear passenger tire, coming from a nice slash.. The rims should be in perfect condition as I put them right on to his cart for his storage unit in perfect shape.

His OEM 19s are now on my car. I hope he sells them as he did me a favor in taking these for a trade towards the Rays 19s. The one tire alone for the 18s ran me 240 I believe. All four tires are under 1,000 miles and just them alone are worth more than the 800. I practically gave these to him though but I am more than happy with the 19s and what they did for my car.

Hi Chuck,

First -- my offer of $800 is still standing. Haven't heard from this party.

Second, if you read and re-read the edited beginning of this thread, the 18s are gone, and he's apparently selling 19s, instead. The tires in the current pictures are not Yokohamas but Potenzas. Also, I'd have to be there to measure, but these (in the picture) look pretty well used. If there's 30% left on a treadwear rating of 160, that's about enough rubber to get you to the tire store. (Small hyperbole!

I edited out the part about the slow leak, but a plugged Z-rated tire shouldn't be driven above street speeds. Collect and mount four of them, and you can have a nice 10-minute Youtube "drifting" video.

But it's still a crapshoot buying anyone's used rubber and rims, because alloy wheels are prone to a certain type of misbehavior. That's when you park safely next to a curb -- no curbage! no damage! -- but then have to cut the wheel sharply to exit. Your power steering, versus the curb sideways on the rim flange on a Rays forged ... who's going to win? And unlike steel rims, alloys aren't so easy to pound back into a semblance of round.

Well, that's just one little horror story. I got a set of supposedly pulled OEM rims for backup on my wife's last TL, and two of the four were warped to the point you couldn't get a good balance.

But I made a second mistake in putting them out at the curb ... because I could have gotten 60 cents/lb at the junk dealer.

I'm not entirely sure what these are worth. Some sell them for $1300. Some for $900. Some for $1000. And they all sell with tires. I just saw someone offer $800 a few posts back, and figured I'd do the same.

Hey Chuck, I ended up trading your 18's plus a few bucks for 19's to a local guy because he wanted 18's for the winter. So the sale is now for 19's again. I keep getting offers for trades everytime I post a set

jginnane

You still have a standing offer for cash. Well?

This thread reads:
**EDIT** NEED THESE SOLD ASAP. BEST OFFER SHIPPED TONIGHT, I WANT TO BUY A TV FROM MY FRIEND, LOL AND ITS NOT GOING TO LAST LONG!!!

1. There has been a standing offer of $800 cash open for 4 days. No one else has offered more, so this is the "best offer".

2. The person posting this ad has appeared in this forum since the cash offer was posted, but has not responded to the offer, even when queried directly.

3. I don't know how the seller's actions comport with the rules for this forum, but it appears the seller is unwilling to stand by his own words. It's like when you have a neighbor who keeps a "garage sale" of junk going all summer long. This stupid thread has dragged on for MONTHS.

4. If this is not resolved in the next 24 hours, I ask that this thread be permanently closed and "370Rpm" be barred from advertising here until he demonstrates he is willing to bargain in good faith.

Yeah I pm'd the seller with an offer about a week ago and he never responded.

Supracrazy

Why dont you just post a price?

chuckd05

this guy isnt stealing anything from any body... i traded my 18s for his original 19s he had.. than i guess he traded them for 19s ... But i know for sure this guy does not own a 370z so he really has no reason to be here other than selling these rims... And maybe he is just being really lazy about it... Its a pretty confusing thread so maybe it should be closed but this guy isnt a bad guy. Maybe he just hasnt been paying much atention to selling these, as the rims are prob at his storage place, and out of site out of mind.

Whatever though, I dont care what people think of him, I dont know him, I just know that I got a set of wheels off of him locally without any type of complications. He was 100 straight foward from what I could tell.

Close this thread. He just posted they were Sold on another Thread. I'd link back to it, but i unsubscripted.

That's good -- because the more I thought about it, the more I thought that I really, really, really wouldn't want to buy anything from this person. Or even, be in the same room with him. Ever.

I feel bad too for the shill he's got trying to prop him up, but also!!1!!
