Is this a good deal for Cobra Rims?

s48jet · December 28th, 2011, 02:17 AM

I am in the market for wheels and came across this offer on craiglist:

Up for sale is a set of 2003-2004 17x9 SVT Cobra OEM Ford Brushed Alumimum Rims and Tires. The Rims are in very good shape except for a little to no curb rash on just 2 of the rims, the tires are the Original Eagle F1'S 275/40/17 and have about 30% to 40% left on them. $400.

is this a good deal? Or can you generally find these rims for cheaper? In my research I was not able to find anything cheaper. What do you guys think?

i got my machs with new tires for 375

I see perfect Cobras going for $400 without tires around here. Those have rash, but they include tires that will need to be replaced soon.

I'd offer him $300 cash and see what he does.

I payed $500 for oem cobras with some rash and almost brand new tires.
I don't think it is that bad of a deal though.

whyxitx · December 28th, 2011, 12:38 PM

like he said, 300 cash.

I got my cobras for 200.00, two had brand new tires on them, the other two were bald tires.

xtreme 2 · December 28th, 2011, 01:06 PM

my 95 Rs I got for $250 with tires. Had them powdercoated black for another $100. then replaced 2 of the tires.

dgt_mustang · December 28th, 2011, 01:10 PM

I'm going to plasti-dip mine and see if i like them black, if i do then i will powdercoat later, i need to see it in person.
