hey everyone, bought these rims for my protege5 and they are too wide. I thought someone on here might be interested, these would look awesome on a ranger.
anyways, they are straight and true, no bends, cracks or warping.
Im just trying to make my money back on them, I paid $400.0 for them 2 days ago, and have spent the past 2 days cleaning them up as they were seriously filthy.
$400.00 plus shipping if not local, but will deliver or meet within 100 miles of where I live.
they will have no tires as the tires are pretty much history.
the last picture is with them on my car.

PM me or call me if interested.

whats the bolt pattern? 5x114.3?

 

yea, sorry, I thought I had put it in there, I will now.

 

rice

 

Doesn't look too bad, are there any side shots or 3/4 rear fender shots

 

I had simmilar wheels on my mr2. loved them. If they were staggard I would have bought them.

 

there is a yaris running around here that has a wider rim that causes some poke. looks good imo.

 

here you go :)
I wish I had taken a couple more angles when I had them on yesterday.
they dont look too awful, but the tires on the rims are trash and the tires on my mp5 are brand new (x2) and 85%(x2) and Im not comfortable with stretching them to fit these rims. and it would be a pretty good stretch.
this is the front tires on these rims:
front stretched

this is the rear tires:
rear stretched

these came off a mustang GT built for the track, so I dont think they are rice. certainly not as rice as many other rims Ive seen on honduhs and the like :)

 

you could pull em off. more stretch on the tires, moar lower with pulled fenders... probably more work than its worth lol

 

exactly
if I cant sell them, I'll just hold onto them for when I get another Ranger.
but Id like to get rims on my mp5 now as 1 or more are warped and I dont want to ruin the new tires I just bought, but Im limited on funds.
I bought these only because the guy couldnt tell me the width and I assumed they were 7" wide, and after driving 2+ hours to get them, I figured Id at least give it a shot.

 

if they were 17x8's up front with the same offset, id consider them.



wish i never sold em lol

 

the guy I bought them from ran 235's on the front and 275's on the rear with no problems, so they have a staggered look if that is what your going for :)

I should add that Im probably going to go with a graphite paint scheme in the center forged area and keep the lip polished, close to this PS image:

 

these should be finished by the end of the weekend and will look very close to the PS in the post above this, will also have several layers of high strength clear coat over the entire rim.

 

2 day price drop
I found a set of rims that would fit the mp5 perfectly, the guy is asking $350.0 and agreed to hold onto them for 2 days if I meet his asking price.
so I will eat $50.0 on these and let them go for $350.0 + shipping if they are sold by tomorrow late afternoon.

 

still for sale

 

bump
still for sale, and back to the original price
$400.0 + shipping if not local

 

had a chance to weigh these today, rim with metal bolt on valve stems and center caps came in at 18.3lbs.
