Time for a weekly bump, not a daily like some dooshbogs .

Still not wanting to ship these yet. Maybe if they haven't sold in another month . Forgot to mention there are no TPMS in these, and no lug bolts included either, sorry.

Ok, it's been about a month & I still have these. $3,000 cash & you can pick them up & take them home.

So let's review, you can get this set of amazing wheels & tires for only 1/2 of the original price. And you are getting this cheap price because the tires don't have much tread & wheels have some dents & curb rash? No. Because they are painted neon pink? No. Because they some undesirable size? No. Because I want to sell them? Yes.

This is bottom line, so don't expect any further discounts.

Ok, I guess I will have to open up the option to ship these. I can carefully wrap them up & send by UPS or FedEx, but the buyer will have to pay for the shipping costs.

On top of that, if you are going to pay by Paypal, you will need to pay the 2.9% worth of fees.

I understand this all adds up & is not cheap, but in the end it is still a great deal.

If you are in L.A. & want to pay with cash, then that's fine too

Yeah, they are not really that well known in the US, but they are top quality right up there with all the other popular brands.

So here we are 6 months later. I guess the economy is still sucking, huh?

I promise, if these don't sell within a year, I'll take them off the market.

If its been 6 months, it means your price does not reflect the market value for these wheels at all. I am not trying to bash on anything, I have sold nearly 300 sets of wheels over the last decade on forums. And all wheels have a certain market value to the specific customer they can be sold to. Just something to consider.

I would be interested in these, but the price point is beyond what they are worth to me. If you are interested in talking, let me know. If not, no harm, good luck with the sale!

I considered that price may be a factor, but it's hard for me to find anyone else who is offering a better deal (and I do look). If a 54% discount isn't enough to motivate someone to buy, then price probably isn't the issue. Sure I could lower the price so much as to give them away, but I'm not 6 months behind on my rent, so I don't feel like being Santa Claus if I don't have to be, sorry.

I think you read my statement wrong. You would be surprised what a couple hundred $'s will get you in the way of attention when selling a used wheel. People looking for used wheels are looking for exactly that. A used wheel at a discount. Not all quality 3-piece wheel manufactures mark their wheels up to the $1500 per wheel price point. They dont need to. When you can get a brand new set of Work wheel for a few hundred more than a used set of an "off-name"(I say this because these arent your main name wheels that catch the casual shoppers eye: Work, HRE, DPE, ADV.1, etc. not discounting the wheel quality.) You are gonna have a really tough sell unless they happen to strike that nerve with the perfect buyer.

As I said before, good luck with your sale sir! They are quite good looking wheels and would make for a pretty nice "aggressive" stance on a E, CL, S class as well.

Not sure if you knew that these are new, not used. Well I'll take you advice & knock $100 off the price. Now $2,900 + shipping, etc.

No, I wasn't there today, I don't get down there very often (kind of far/have to wake up so early). Last time was about a month ago.
