FS: WORK VS-XX 18x8.5 & 18x9.5 in CANADA

WORK VS-XX wheels in 5x112 ET32 --> 3 piece wheels.
18x8.5 fronts 18x9.5 rears
Tires are Falken ZIEX-512's (225/40/18 front, 255/35/18 rear --> Safe for all wheel drive)
This setup has about 5000 km on it. I just bought it.
Center bore is 66.6 for a Benz, I've been using hubcentric rings to fit these to my Audi.

Hate to sell these... and I won't unless the price is right. I'm toying with the idea of going back to all stock.

Sorry the pics are all fancy... All I have at the moment.
2500CAD and I'll ship at buyers expense.
email works best please, I'm not a merc owner so I am not sure how often I'll return to this thread. chrisrw AT gmail DOT com

Thanks!

I'm in Ontario -- Just east of Toronto. I'd be willing to meet anybody in Niagara Falls with a deposit and some gas $.

I doubt it.
I pretty much had these wheels sold to a BC buyer last week, on the condition that I verify they'd fit over Audi S4 brakes. So I found a car with B5 S4 brakes, tried to fit my wheel on that car... and it didn't fit. Needed around 10mm of spacers from the look of it.
'Tis a shame. The dish looks so good... but clearly has its downfalls.

My brother does all the photography work for me. www.offtone.com/photography/ shows some of his work.

Those pictures are HDR, which is pretty cool stuff in my books.

Thanks everybody.
I love the wheels... but it's just not in the cards for me to keep them. I'm wanting a new car, and keeping these high end wheels just isn't in the budget for me.

The photos are taken and put together using Canon's HDR software... my brother took them, and yeah, there was some photoshop after the HDR stuff.
HDR basically uses multiple exposures to create one picture with everything exposed properly.
