17x9.5 Epsilon 3pcs Mesh wheel (GTA style)

I have had these wheels for a few years and have planned on putting them on my 87 Sport Coupe, but my LS project keeps needing more money...

These are (4) 17x9.5 Epsilon Mesh 3pcs forged wheels... Sometimes called Southern Ways. They are 5x120.65 with ET35 (or Corvette C4 offset). These have platinum metallic grey painted centers with the spokes brushed and clear coated. The inner barrels were sanded, brushed, and clear coated as well. The outer hoops have been re-polished. 3 of the hoops are chrome plated, and one is polished aluminum. The polished one has been polished to very high luster and is hardly noticable. They have chrome plated hardware (wheel bolts), and all four center caps have fresh Epsilon wheel emblems. These are currently mounted up with Toyo R888's in 275/40r17. The tires are still in good shape, but have outer edge wear from an agressive camber set up on the last car they were on when tracked. I will include a set of (4) 2" billet wheel spacers to adapt to our 82-92 Fbodies.

I'm asking $1500 for the set with tires, or $1300 for just the wheels.

I would prefer a local deal, but I am willing to package, and ship. Buyer will pay shipping and paypal fees.

These wheels hardly ever come up for sale, so don't miss your opportunity to have GTA look with the performance of a forged 3pcs wheel in a performance size... with performance tires!

Its not hardly noticable with everything polished up, but I agree it would be best to be all one way or the other

Bump for a set of bad *** wheels!

How much was it to have the centers done? This is the exact look I am aiming for on my Formula with the Charcoal on the bottom. If you had any interest in trades, I would gladly trade a set of 18x8 Speedline Alessios.

Thank you. I re-finished the centers myself, so just about $40 in paint, which the left over clear coat was used in the barrels... gotta keep that brushed finish looking good.

Honestly if I'm gonna let go of them, I need the cash, more than another set of wheels... as much as I like the speedlines

The centers look like they are machined down. My centers are more of a point on the faces... Did you do a lot of work? Interested in doing another set of centers if I paid?

Not, not yet at least. The car they are planned to got on had no motor in it until a week or so ago. The car still isn't running and won't be for a few months... So I never wanted to mount up fancy wheels on the car that is sitting beside my shop. Poor car get no attention as it is, but I think with these wheels it would make it stand out and then next thing you know something happens. I would mount on my 91 Z, but they won't fit over my 14" brakes.

If you are a serious buyer and not a "tire kicker" I could possible work something out with getting these on... Or photoshop? PM me if serious.

The edges might be slightly sharper than a factory painted set, as these have been sanded down with a DA, then hand brushed, but that is about it for "machining" lol.

I honestly got way too much on my plate as it is to take one more work, even paying. The key to brushing its spinning the part... find a way to spin it and it will make the project easy. I use my wheel balancer to mechanically spin them

Just a tire kicker.... Have a set of waggons wheels if you wanna do a partial trade but other than that just looking and dreaming. Good luck with the sale and let me know if you ever do put them on the car! I love the mesh style.

I just shipped my ROH wheels to CA, and it cost $160. I bid those at 27x27x13 -rears with a weight of 63lbs

I would say these should be 26x26x12 and closer to 50lbs... maybe 55lbs all wrapped and with spacers if you needed them

I have a shipping account with Nexship, and could quote shipping if you wanted to PM me an address.

These wheels will get too much love in the Pacific NW... Mesh lovers central. Better have good locking lugs lol

I don't. I haven't got them packaged as I don't know if they will sell local or not. If you need a shipping quote let me know. My shipping account makes it pretty reasonable to ship.

Sorry have been sick. So technically speaking what exactly do you want to know the weight of? The tires are mounted so I'm limited on what I can try and weigh for you. I think some stance works page has listed weights of the bare wheels if I remember correctly. They are light for sure!
