Hey all. New here, but I recognize some names from the thirdgen world.
Fellow I know is interested in a few rims I have. Another guy where I used to live put him '98 SS into the woods, and I got three of his 17*9.5 rims and a new 285 tire when he upgraded. One of those deals that you can't pass up. Anyway, after sitting in the shed for a couple seasons (been in college, car is sleeping) he's offering a trade. First option is a set of Koni Yellows, slightly used, single adjustable. Second option is a 9-bolt 3.23 posi disc rear, complete. (currently have 10-bolt 2.73 drum peg-leg) I'm running a 1986 Z28 with some beginner mods to get me into ESP. Would I be best suited getting the shocks, rear, or ponying up some cash for another rim and some tires? Mods as of now: 1.5" Jamex drop springs, Delco HD shocks/struts, SSM subframe connectors, wonderbar, 3point strut brace, 383/A4 (plans for manual swap), curently running 16*8 GM crosslace wheels. Opinions? |

QUOTE (PhotoMatt @ Feb 3 2005, 12:37 PM) For sure. Turns out he wanted to trade only for a front set of struts. I passed on the deal. :drive: 3 SS rims are probably not worth a whole lot. SLP was selling "new" take off rims (pulled off of cars that were in their shop, most had 5 or 10 miles on them) for $399 and that was for 4 basically new ones. I'm not trying to tell you what to do, just that the days of "$700 SS rims" are pretty much over. I sold my 16" Z28 rims for $80 off of my 2002 Camaro. $80 was for a set of 4, you can't give them away. The 17's are a little better. I paid $225 shipped (shipped about 1,200 miles) for 4 of them last year. Anyway. Just thought I'd mention it (in case you were holding out for what may not be realistic in terms of money for them). I forgot to mention it earlier, welcome to frrax! (IMG:http://www.frrax.com/rrforum/style_emoticons/default/beerchug.gif) |
