(4) 17x11 50mm ZR1 wheels.
They have some slight surface "blemishes". Mainly from being loaded and unloaded off my tire trailer, being swapped at autocross events, etc. I've had them for almost 10 months, bought them used from a guy in DFW. They are great wheels, not out of round or bent, etc. Don't know what else to say about them. The pics speak for themselves.

They have Kumho 315/35/17 710's mounted on them. The tires have one track day and about 12 autocross events on them. They still stick better than a Toyo (IMG:http://www.frrax.com/rrforum/style_emoticons/default/tongue.gif) Once again, look at the pix.

I'm asking $750 for local pickup (San Antonio, TX). If you live near, I'll try to work something out with driving them a little ways outside of SA to meet you. Shipping is obviously a PITB for something like this. I was quoted about $275 from the UPS Store (IMG:http://www.frrax.com/rrforum/style_emoticons/default/dry.gif) . That included them packaging the wheels (IMG:http://www.frrax.com/rrforum/style_emoticons/default/blink.gif) Obviously it'd be nice to find someone close...

Reason for sale: CCW's baybee (IMG:http://www.frrax.com/rrforum/style_emoticons/default/biggrin.gif)

Any questions, post here, pm me, or send me an e-mail:
nickvalentin AT gmail DOT com

edit: I'm not interested in separating wheels/tires at the moment. Trying to sell as a package first.

If you have to ship them, try FedEx. They are way cheaper. Also, If you have a Kinko's Copy Center in your area, check with them. They have a FedEx counter inside the store and they are open late.

I'll give that a shot. It's got to be better than $275 (IMG:http://www.frrax.com/rrforum/style_emoticons/default/blink.gif)

I used to ship wheels and tires all the time ... and through UPS.
But the UPS store surcharges the hell out things ...

They should make weight and demension shipped in pairs.
UPS charges by demension, then a max weight.
It will cost the same to ship 20lbs of lead in a 24x24x12 box as it does a 24x24x12 box of air.

Put the 2 wheel faces together and bind the 2 wheel/tires together with plenty of tape.
Maybe cut a cardbord disc and sandwhich them if the wheels touch.
To get them tight, let all the air out of fthe tires, bind them and then air up the tires.

Find a UPS terminal and take them there yourself.
It should only cost about $50 for each bundle.

That's how Tirerack shipped my mounted and balanced set of 4 tires/wheels.
(well they used nylon strapping instead of tape...)

I think shipping came to around $65 total on my invoice.

The UPS store is indeed the butth0l3 of shipping. But it's the closest facility to my apartment. There is a Fedex inside a Kinko's further away, guess I'll check out their charges before I put these on Ebay next week.

Thanks for the help, guys!

If you decide to split up the tires and wheels, I'll take the wheels.
