In any case, I withdraw my interest in these wheels. Good luck with the sale; at the price you quoted, you'll make someone very happy! (Or keep them, jclouis27, I think they are wonderful and will look even better with a little cosmetic care.)

I'll take a page out of the life experience manual of another member here from "the Carolinas (don't remember whether N or S)," who had negotiated for a month with a seller in TX over a Designo Graphite CLS (1 of 11 in the U.S.), only to be told ten minutes after his last phone call with the seller that the car was just sold (to another member here from WA who was unaware of the situation). "Carolinas" bought an identical car a month later from Tampa. The lesson: there are plenty of wheels out there, and even more opportunities. See, quaalude? I'm learning patience. . .

My apologies to all the members subjected to my grievances. I realize this public forum isn't the place to express my dissatisfaction, and I won't do this again (I'll stick to PM's). Also, apologies to those sitting back and eating popcorn as my tempest-in-a-teapot unfolds - sorry to disappoint you, but I'm not going to talk about this here again. Real life is dramatic enough.

The back ones are Conti 3 but have hardly anything left. The rims are in good shape except for the messed up clear coat that A..Hole Jorden did it is pealing in some places and I took them off the car cause it was looking bad. I could have them refinished and coated but am just so turned off the whole Jordan ****.
