I'm up for some blizzak wrapping, but it's gotta be cheap enough to play with. $100 for the rims? I can pick up this week. If that's not a reasonable offer, no offense intended. I'm assuming they're 17x7 or something similar.

Let me ask her & get back to you. I'm heading to Reno on Thursday early AM, so if you want them this week you'll have to pick them up tomorrow (I'm available after 4pm).

I'm in no massive rush - whenever it's convenient (if she's interested). I'm also near 80 in Sac, and can meet you on your way up to Reno if that's better, on Thursday morning.

I can't bring them on this trip because I'll have 7 passengers in my SUV w/ no more space to spare. I might be able to bring them during X'Mas break, but I can't promise.

I talked to my sis-in-law & she's hoping to get half of what she paid for her new wheels (paid $500 OTD) & I told her that's way too much to ask for steelies. These steelies are sold online about $150 ea. brand new ($200 ea. MSRP). I'd say $150 for the whole set is fair. Let me know what you think.

Fair deal, but I'll pass - don't really *need* 'em and the lug situation is interesting with these - I have enough wheels that I don't fell like messing with it for the novelty. Certainly don't want you holding onto them on my account

For anyone looking, these adapters are the way to go - http://www.doghouserepair.com/store/item/4420

Hondas use a ball-seat instead of a cone-seat lug, and you really want the correct seat interface; these will make a Scooby lug mount securely to a ball-seat wheel. Get 5 sets (or 6 for spares, they're cheap). Noone makes a 12x1.25 ball-seat lug (which would be the optimal solution) - I've been looking for the last 6 hours, lol. Steel wheels are awesome for winters - they're much more durable and resistant to damage than alloys, and this is a great price for anyone who wants a winter STi/BBK setup - guys on IWSTI were paying 200 gladly for these sets.
