ATTN: Anyone looking for wheels *PICS*

My new wheels are already in the mail and paid for.... but I stumbled upon this auction:

17X8 Boyd coddington Smoothies II in 4.5" backspacing. PERFECT for a thirdgen, with tires.... Kind of like a TTII but a million times better:

Happy Bidding!

No crap... you don't like anything that isn't stock. No one asked you.... this is not an opionion thread. I already have wheels for my car.

I posted this for the people who have been asking about these wheels... could be a chance to get them for cheaper.

Get out of my thread homo.

The rims are hot... but maybe not for thirdgens. I think the look of them dont fit the look of the thirdgen as well it would a muslce car or a hot rod. I LOVE the lip on the rim... very sweet. If i had my 67 GTO dream car, i would get a set.

wow..those rims are serious...and the price is amazing...those rims go for about $320 each here in canada and that doesnt include the rubber...if i didnt have my rims (and if i wasnt going 20 inch next year) id go for them..they would look sweet on a black or red iroc...
i say if someone needs rims..bid on them..just scrap the tires..they are too narrow..but the rims are sweet

I'm sure they didn't. The seller ended his auction early. eBay may think he sold them at that price, but I'll bet he worked out a deal with the buyer for a lot more money, but he'll only pay eBay fees on the amount shown.

I've got my wheels/tires on eBay starting tonight. I'm hoping to sell them before the auction ends so I can end the auction early and save the eBay "final value" fees.

I think they look ok, but that was just not cool what you said to brody.

They look nice, but the tires are 225/45/17 . Too thin, IMO.
