Great old Magnesium wheel - very good condition, been stored for 20 years.- I have a full set of 4, they are $250 each. Have you ever seen any like this, I know this is not a Hailbrand or American Racing wheel, there seem to be no maker's marks on it. Please call or email me back if you think you know what these are from. . . . Bruce 805-550-2151 PS: Any scammers who email me saying, "Is your item still available?" will not be answered!

i dunno what they r but I LIKE THEM!

 

i wonder what size they are?

 

WTF? $250 EACH? Seriously? I thought 250 was OK for the whole set - but no way in hell I would pay that kind of money for those. That guy is on crack when he doesn't even know what they are or where they came from. They're nice looking as far as redoing them, but only if you get a fair price for them. $1,000 for a set of old wheels that need to be cleaned up is not a good deal.

 

If thats the price I agree with the guy above me, if you hunt you can get a set of nearly new c6 rims for $400....

 

Magnesium, guys.
