FS: 20" AutoCouture Insignia Wheels for R230 SL & SL AMG's BRAND NEW w/ Advan Tires!

Hello Guys. I have for sale a set of BRAND NEW AutoCouture Insignia Wheels, Gloss Black Center with Chrome Lips for 2003-2008 Mercedes Benz SL500/550 or SL55/63/65 AMG Vehicles, and/or 2006-2009 C219 Mercedes Benz CLS500/550 or CLS55/63 AMG Vehicles. They are 20x9.0 front & 20x11.0 rear. Tires are BRAND NEW Yokohama Advan Sport 255/30/ZR20 front & BRAND NEW Yokohama Advan Sport 305/25/ZR20 rear.

You can check out these wheels at the below AutoCouture homepage:

http://www.auto-couture.com/blacklab...nia/index.html

You can check out the tires at the below Tire Rack homepage below:


http://www.tirerack.com/tires/tires....e1=yes&place=3

The wheels cost $1500.00 EACH

The (2) front tires are $336.00 EACH

The (2) rear tires are $391.00 EACH


Total cost for these wheels and tires WITHOUT shipping would run you at least $7,000.00.

Pic of what the wheels look like on a Gallardo (I know it's not a CLS or an SL, but it's the only pic I could find of these wheels with a black center and chrome lip)

Various pics of the actual wheels & tires:






I am selling these wheels and tires for ONLY $4600.00 plus S/H!!!!

Please send me a PM or email me at hdsr5@netscape.net if you are SERIOUSLY interested in this AWESOME DEAL! Please, no lowballers...

Price lowered to $4000.00/firm + shipping guys!

Take advantage of this ridiculous deal. I have been too lazy to actively pursue selling these beautiful wheels, and they are just sitting in a garage closet. Someone please buy these and put them on your SL or CLS so these wheels can be put to good use...

I am not hurting for money, so I am in no rush. I want to sell them at a fair & reasonable price, rather than let someone get them at a lowball price. I'll probably burn them them before selling them for a lowball price.

I am looking for the right buyer with the right perspective, obviously.

No problem. Good luck...

lots and lots of choices out there. Just didn't know if you'd rather have the $$ than the wheels.

Lots of choices, yes, that will ALWAYS be the case (when has it ever NOT been the case?). BUT, I am selling these Brand New wheels & tires for WAAAAY below DEALER COST on the wheels AND on the tires. So you have choices, BUT if you are looking at getting premium wheels for your premium car, these are a steal of a deal at a price that CANNOT be beat.
If you are looking to buy cheapass wheels then that is a different story, again, that person should sell their car and buy a Honda Civic to put those cheapass wheels on the so the wheels match the car.

I'd rather have my pride and burn the wheels than to bend over for some lowball penny-pincher...

AGAIN, I am looking for a specific buyer who is in the market for Brand New premium wheels AND premium tires, and is looking for a good deal compared to what he would pay from a store OR ANYONE for that matter, given the price I am selling these wheels & tires for...

Uh, is all that really necessary?

I was only inquring. I didn't "insult" you with a lowball offer. If I don't like the price or circumstances, then I pass. No offense intended, none should be taken. And I hardly think that anyone who's willing to buy a set of used wheels that cost more than a used Honda is cheap. (Yeah, I know you're going to tell me they are new. But they have no warranty from the reseller, and you're pretty much on your own there.)
Anyway, good luck to you again. There's no harm in inquiring. And by the way, exactly how did you know what kind of "lowball offer" I had in mind? I don't believe I said "I'll pay $1000 for those crap wheels that I don't really want". It's nice stuff. I just don't want to pay $4k for the set of wheels that's not my first choice in the finish that's not my first choice. That's unreasonable?
I understand. I've been stuck with stuff I wanted to get off of many times. Much more than a set of wheels too! As they've been for sale now since last November, waiting a while longer can't hurt.
Flame on, I'm good.

My post was actually not directed at you at all, it was directed at several individuals who have been wasting my time and trying my patience via multiple back & forth emails and messages, only to ask well into our correspondence if I could do a price that was ridiculously low. If you took offense to that I apologize, I just have a short fuse for people who waste my time and have no serious intention on buying my wheels. I am not the only person on this forum who is sick of these people who seem to have nothing better to do than ask questions with zero intent to purchase.
btw, These wheels may not have a "warranty" but a $1500.00 discount from DEALER COST should alleviate any concerns people may have. Autocouture wheels are of a very high quality, and will probably last the life of a car, if taken care of properly. Advan Sport tires are some of the most expensive & best performing tires available, so this is the pefect combo of high-quality wheels with high-quality tires.
Again, I will repeat myself, I am looking for the right buyer with the right perspective on these premium wheels & tires. If that is not you, that is ok with me. Please don't buy something that isn't exactly what you want. I wouldn't either do it, I don't expect you to.
I don't want this thread to turn into a debate on anything, I would like this thread to remain what it was intended to be. Simply, to sell my wheels... I don't think that is too much to ask...
