You ideally want a 48 offset or so, and at least a 7.5 inch wheel if you're going to a 17 or 18 inch wheel

ES100s are Yokohama AVS ES100s, decent 3-season tire (no snow)

I leave for Japan tonight, so let me know pretty quick, lol. Rims are scratched up a bit, so they're not perfect, but they're also 16x7's for cheap with tires. I just picked them up last week for my car, but I have no need for them at the moment.

Are those the wheels that I saw at the meet a few weeks ago? Why are you selling?
Thanks, but I am really looking for gloss black, but those look really sharp!

Many of us have done it. If you put in a good effort it will probably come out well. Of course it helps that most of us are using flat black on our track wheels, but still...

I park it at my apt complex. Good neighborhood. I don't know anyone in my complex really besides an ROTC buddy, and my downstairs neighbor Gert. He is this cool guy from Germany. I am totally good with everyone else I know in Davis. I have not had one confrontation since I have been here. It was some random jerk. My car was next to the building, along a main path, plenty of foot traffic. High risk of being seen.....sigh.



Thanks to Aaron though, I am back on the road. Thank you. I will be rolling these RS rims for the next week or two at most, until my 18s that I order show up. So if anyone wants to buy these, with decent rubber, let me know, I will sell them for 267.53 with my other stock rims, with two good tires. :-P Aaron has first dibs. or just the RS rims and tires that I just bought for 200$...which is what I just paid....but I am only going to roll them for a week or two......:-P

but yeah....so I am back on the road again...fine way to waste my day before three finals...
