I bought a set of rims at the Englishtown swap meet last weekend, and I have absolutley NO idea what they are. Ive searched high and low, but nothing. I believe theyre ARE's, but thats the only info I have. Id like to know a model number or something as Id like to order some center caps and replacement chrome screws.
Theyre 17x11 by the way! They do fit on the back, but need about a 1/2" spacer. Is is possibly to get extended lugs and use 1/2" flat spacer, as opposed to a bolt on spacer? I havent tried em on the front, but I was told they DONT rub... I HIGHLY doubt that, but who knows... looks to have a pretty good offset.
Anyway, here are a few pics... lemme know any info you have!
edit: somebody hit me really hard on the head please.......i just looked quickly before replying and didnt realize that there is no way they could be 10 spoke SS rims...they look similar with the exception of probably twice the number of spokes! haha

If you feel like doubling or even tripling your money, you just let me know, mmmmmk? They're going to look like ***, so you may as well just hand them over.
i saw them on friday almost took them home until i realize they had a lot of curb damage and had no center caps i was wondering if they were bent or not?

Nope, theyre perfectly straight acually! And apon closer inspection of the curb damage, its not as bad as it looks. The only affect part is the outter lip, which Ill be able to take care of no problem. He was askin $150 for em, and when I went back, he said $100 so I said hell yeah!
At the time, I didnt even know if they fit. I still dont to an extent, but for the money I paid, I couldnt really lose either way.
Shoulda seen me stuffin all 4 of those bastards in my vert though! With the top UP none the less! That was an interesting site to say the least... after re-arranging then 4 damn times, I finally got it so I could see out the passenger window and barely shift into 5th.
