Hey guys, I'm selling the rims I bought for my protégé last summer.
Rims are O.Z Michelangelo 8's, They're 16in, bolt pattern 4x100. Rubber is BF Goodrich G-Force T/A KDW, 205/45. They're perfect size replacement for OEM Mazda protégé rims and should be a good size for any compact car. I bought them at the end of last summer, but I ended up buying my skyline not long after and the rims have basically been sitting there ever since.
I don't have a picture of them on my car yet, but for a general ideal you can see http://www.tirerack.com/images/wheels/oz/swap/oz_mi_angelo_8_ci3_l.jpg
They are rather lightweight and they have the obvious advantage of being the same size as stock overall, but with much lower profile tires.
The front rims have slight curb rashes, which I can get repaired for a price if whomever buys them wants me to.
I'm asking 1300 (very nego of course), which is basically the price of the rubber. You pay for what is probably the best tires on the market, and you get a nice set of rims for free lol. 1000 is not even half of what it's worth, rims alone were over 250 us (when it was worth a lot lol) + tax, plus duties (they came from the states, new from tirerack), plus handling, plus.....
I'll finish by adding that they're "bright silver", which basically means silver and not chrome. The finish is guaranteed for another year. Those rims get you looked at wherever you go. Invest in good rims rather than buying cheap "fast wheels" that will weight more and break in half after the first pothole. Buy some quality rims (I know, I know, I sound like a salesman from shopping TVA lol).
Anyways, anyone intrested, let me know !
I might consider trade for parts I need + cash too.
I speak french, english, spanish, I understand german and italian and I can also decipher latin, so anyone, pm me, I can understand you lol.
Thanks !
