advice on craigslist wheel buy

spaseghost · July 18th, 2011, 07:34 PM

So I got my FR500s about two months ago and i really like them, but they were my second choice because the saleens were not in stock. I saw and ad today and just wanted to know if everyone feels like this is a fair price for some saleens? I havent called the guy yet or anything.

Depending on if the rims have no damage (curb marks, bent wheel, chipped paint etc.) I'd say that's one hell of a deal. . It's kind of hard to tell from those pics, but if the tires have good tread then it should be a good deal. If not, then i'd try talking him down $50-$100.

yea that's a nice deal but those tires look like they don't quite fit the rims perfectly but other then that they look pretty good but i would ask him for pics of all 4 rims

In my area i saw ones in CL for $300 with tires...I Shoulda taken it...Id say $4-500 is good

He wants $600 for them with one bent, and one tire is going to need to be replaced because it was out of alignment? I wouldnt do it considering 4 brand new wheels are under $600 shipped (and tires can be bought on craigslist for under 200 if you look)
I paid $350 for authentic bullitts (obviously not as rare as authentic saleens...) with 4 good tires. Just wait for a set that doesnt have a bent rim.

or I'd offer him $400 for them
