Thanks, but I've got a set of Fikses on the way - I don't need another pair of rims (thus why I'm selling my AMG 18" rims/tires).

See ya,

Cool!! Which Fikse model are you getting. I loved the FM10s that I had on my E39 BMW. Just wished they would fit my new car!

Thanks. Yes, I too have Fikse FM10s on my RX-7. I ordered the new Profile 10s for the SLK55. I like my SLK rims, just don't need them anymore & they will take up space.

See ya,

Matt,

Did you PM Blake P? I know he wanted your rims on condition that he sold his. With your price drop, he might jump on this price. Here is his thread mentioning your rims.

PM'd ya back.

To all, the first $1.6k offer takes them - no bid wars (all that does is **** people off over a few measly hundred bucks - life's too short for that nonsense).

I told Blake this AM, there is a 1" X .1" SLIGHT silver polish discoloration on the right rear rim lip created by me from polishing out a surface scratch. There is no physical shape/metal penetration from this scratch and I can vouch, its very hard to find. I'd take a pic to show, but my SLK is in the shop getting its diffuser put on/painted. Its just soooooooo minor it can't really be seen. However, I'm an honest guy & wanted to let you all know - zero surprises for any buyers. I think maybe some elbow grease may eliminate this slight defect - I'll try when I get the car back & post a pic if the rims aren't already sold (which is likely, I've had 5 PMs this morning).

See ya gang,
-Matt

The rims have just been sold/held for a Buyer until my own rims arrive. Unless the deal falls through, pls consider this sale closed. I'll re-open the thread in 2.5 wks IF the deal falls through for some unlikely/unknown reason. Thanks for your interest people.

Got your PM...will hold them for you until your return. And yes, the ever so slight 1" X .1" discoloration on the 1 rim lip surface can be fixed/buffed easily - likely by yourself. The discoloration is actually just a slightly more shiney sheen (not discoloration per say - my bad description ). You honestly can't even see it unless you KNOW exactly where on the rim to look - its that invisible. Anyway, congratulations Blake!

See ya,
-Matt

I was hoping it wasn't a scam. I was considering these. In, fact now that i look at it, it has to be a scam, unless this guy moved to Georgia. What do you guys think. It says hes in Cali on here, but GA in the bay ad. Plus there are no recent pics, and the mileage/wear on the tires does not match up.
