F/S: 18" Carlsson 1/5 with tires

I bought a set of 18" Carlsson 1/5 wheels with Michelin Pilot Sport tires and I want to sell them. It was kind of an impulse buy at the moment, and now that the idea of my baby arriving (real baby, not car... due date in early Dec), I need to be more sensible with my spending.

Here is the ebay Auction i Won them from, I'm just looking to break even @ $695
http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/ws/eB...m=170034485722


The wheels are 18x9 all around, but have staggered tires installed. 225/40/18 up front and 255/35/18 in the rear. All Michelin Pilot Sports. I think the rears are the new PS2, can't be for certain about the front tires.

Only 1 wheels seems to have curb rash on it, the rest look good. I saw the wheels last week when I paid for them, but haven't picked them up since I couldn't fit them in my car.

Let me know if anyone is interested. You can PM or email me at mmgrad@yahoo.com

i think thats just the going rate for these wheels. They are probably worth at least $1,000, but, I don't want to take up space at my house, so I just want to move them out quickly for the same amount.... I'm not looking for a profit or anything... It was practically an impulse buy when I placed my bid... I didn't expect to win, but I did...

Anyhow, as I went shopping for my baby, a crib, stroller and infant child seat is already $1,000... so I just need to lay off on buying toys for my car, hence the reason why I'm selling them

i had 19" Carlsson 2/5 for my W208... I loved them so much, I snagged these for the W211.

But, after starting to shop for the baby this weekend, I gotta reprioritize my spending since I'm not made of money

should have no problem fitting your c-class. as for the tire condition, please see the link to the ebay auction. I don't have anything to measure it with, but, the original seller posted about 60-70% tread remaining, and that looks about right. They are all wearing evenly...
