FS/FT 18inch 5x100 AME Shallen CX wheels

Manufacturer's website:
http://www.kyh.co.jp/products/ame/sh...hallen_cx.html

18x8 +38 in the rear (76mm of lip) and 18x8 +48 in the front (66mm of lip). Offset was picked to maximize the amount of lip without modifying fenders on a Legacy.

My fender is not rolled. The car is lowered, and had -2deg of camber in front and rear. No abnormal tire wear with 0 toe, but I went for more agressive toe setup just to try it out, and the inner edge starts to wear out quicker.

So the front has 10mm less lip than that.

They have not been curbed, and the lip is still very polished. Will sell with tires if you are local. But if you are far away, it might be cheaper to just ship the wheels only. Ther tires have good tread left on them. 215/35/18 Kumho MX. Only issue is that one of the tire picked up a nail at IKEA, it is patchable at tire shop, but I haven't bother with it yet. I will take picture of that particular puncture to show that its repairable.

Paid 550 each plus 300 shipping from Japan ($2500 total). Tires still have very good life left. Selling for $1500 + shipping. If you are in northern california, we can meet some where and get the deal done, saves me packing headache.

....Or, if you have non 5-spokes rim, I am willing to trade. Wheels to me is like accessories for women, I can never have enough variety.

more pics off the car

Here they are, all together:


There are plenty of treads left:


Different angles of the wheels:





Ok, here is the front wheel that picked up a nail/staple at IKEA:


As you can see, just a tiny hole with no rip, any tire place can plug it and you would have a set of wheels plus tires to ride on the moment you get them.


The other 3 wheels/tires is inflated at 36psi right now, and holding pressure.

According to my bathroom scale, wheel + tire is 38lbs. Tire is 19lb according to tirerack website, so the wheel is in the 19-20lbs range.
