***SOLD***Simmons FR17 3-Piece Modular Wheels

SOLD!!!
These wheels have been sitting in my shop for about four years and now in my living room for almost one year. I've come to realize that I will not use these anymore since the car is a dedicated drag car. These are the original Simmons wheels.
I had these mounted on the primered car that you can see in my photobucket album for about 3000 miles or so. There is also a picture of them mounted on a bone stock 1984 Z28. They still have the original tires that will need to be replaced, but still hold air. I can ship the wheels with or without the tires, your choice. There are some small nicks and scratches from when they were on the car. Many of them came from the road trip I made from Arkansas to Pittsburgh and back. They have never touched a curb, I promise.
These were specifically made for a third gen and fit absolutely perfect. Specs are as follows:

Fronts: 17x8.5 with 4.75" of backspacing
Rears: 17x9.5 with 5.25" of backspacing
Both have .41" of disc offset

Please call me at 501-858-8651 or email at jeremy82camaro@gmail.com with any and all questions. I prefer talking on the phone rather than texting if you have a bunch of questions. $2000 plus shipping. I'm really firm on the price. I will be willing to meet up if you're close.

Here is a picture and more can be found in my photobucket albums named wheels and camaro.

Re: Simmons FR17 3-Piece Modular Wheels

No interest in these at all? Should I post them in a different section?

Re: Simmons FR17 3-Piece Modular Wheels

Bummer you weren't selling them 6 months ago. I was looking for these exact wheels.

Oh well, good luck with your sale. Most people on here are super cheap. But I think your price is pretty fair, and hopefully you will find a buyer soon.

Thanks. I actually had these on racing junk a few months back with only a few hits. Spread the word if you want.

Yeah I can't help you there! Better to ask for forgiveness rather than permission??

Re: Simmons FR17 3-Piece Modular Wheels

Ummmm yeah... I just bought a 3rd camaro after leaving her a voicemail telling her so. I think I have tested the limits of this theory as far as I feel comfortable.

I wish they were 18" I would sell my current wheels and buy those. AMAZING wheels.

Man I wish they were 18's. I would buy them as track wheels. Unfortunately the 17's won't fit over my brakes. Good luck with the sale.

Yeah that's a big brake. I only ran the Wilwood 12" rotors with them.

If you ever get to the point of really needing to get rid of them for bottom dollar, let me know. I can't use them, but I've always wanted a set of these wheels. Again, I think your price is fair, just give it some time.

Yeah I'd rather keep them than go too low on the price. It's taken me about a year to actually make up a my mind to put them up for sale.
What do you consider bottom dollar? PM or text me an offer.
