I have a set of four chrome replica Corvette C6 5 spoke wheels for sale. Only have about 7,XXX miles on them. Sumitomo rubber, rear tires will need to be replaced soon, but fronts are fine. However, the very insides of the front tires are worn down, because of poor alignment on my car. Still have plenty of miles left on them though.
Wheels have no scratches/dings/curb rash whatsoever. Very good condition.

I'd like to get $700+shipping OBO

Here's some pics:

This is what both rear tires look like:

why are you selling them? did you get a new set of rims or something?

Would you be willing to ship these? I live in MA so it I'm assuming it'd cost quite a bit to ship them. If it turns out cheaper to get these than buy brand new ones without paying for shipping, I'd be very interested.

StiLlsMoKiN875- I'm selling them because I hit some ice on the road (3rd time I've ever taken it out in the winter) and went in the ditch, taking a sign with me. I have no choice but to part the car, which is why I'm selling them.

lil' jon- I have no problem shipping these. Just a heads up, one wheel is still on the car, because my brilliant friend stripped my lug nut key. I'm in the process of getting a new one, so as soon as that gets here, they'll be ready to ship. Give me your zip, and I'll get a shipping quote for you.

Do you have any pics of the tires yet? Do they have enough tread to drive a few more thousand miles or what? For some reason the back tires on my car area bald too haha. Could be the donuts & burnouts :/ haha

Oh btw, that's too bad about your car. Looks like it was a beauty too.

Alright, I'll get a shipping quote quickly here. You could get a couple thousand more miles, just stay out of any snow/ice/and as much rain as you can. They're probably below what they legally should be, but there aren't any wires or anything showing.. I wouldn't totally recommend it, but personally I would have used them for a while longer.

And thanks, it's been a pretty emotional adventure.. This car was by far my most prized posession, so it's been tough tearing it apart to sell it.

Rear wheels are $83.99 a piece, fronts are $33.19 a piece. Total would be $1134.36. Let me know if you're interested, and I can give you my paypal address.
By the way, I paid like $1600 for these off ebay, so I think this is a pretty good deal, considering the rear tires can be found for under $100 a piece.

Oh, and I should have close up pics of the wheels and tread (at least 3 of the wheels/tires) tonight. I'll post them on here when I do.

$1000 shipped good enough?

Yeah $1000 shipped is great. Also, are those clear corner lenses still for sale? $1020 if you throw those in? I am in the process of setting up a paypal account, so I wouldn't be able to pay today. It should be set up by the end of the week if that's cool.

If they don't sell by then, yes. I need the money ASAP, so first one with money sent gets them..
If there was a way to send me a down payment to hang on to them, I'd do that.. (Paypal doesn't take that long to set up, does it?)

Well I'm setting up my paypal account to withdraw from a savings account, but it'll take 3-5 business days to verify my account. I may be able to come up with a small down payment, how much were you thinking?

I'd say about 25% and I'll hang on to them, so like, $250?

Sorry man but after looking at those tires a little more thoroughly, I've realized that it isn't feasible for me to spend $1000 on wheels that will need new tires. I don't have the car registered right now and those wouldn't pass so I wouldn't be able to get any use out of them. Sorry again to get your hopes up.

I love those rims, and they are exactly what I am looking for. Here is your issue though. I can get brand new ones for $650+shipping. You include tires, but lil_jon is right, there is no way those tires will pass inspection. So why pay $700 for a used set of rims, when I can pay $650 for new.

I don't have inspection around here, so I guess I never really worry about that.. The fronts will work fine (would they still pass inspection)? But I agree, the rears won't pass.

Just out of curiousity, where can you find them for $650? I've seen them as low as $900 for just the wheels, but not $650..
