I want to get rid of my rims, but do it locally only. There 18" TSW Nagaro's, and there in almost perfect condition, there is 1 little scuff on 1 rim about an inch long, there only 6-8 months old, and most important, just the rims I'm keeping the rubber.
The only reason I'm getting rid of them is because I bought new ones, ASA AR1's, I know there ASA's but everyone has Rial's and I wanted a mesh rim so...
Looking for abot $500 for them OBO, thats under half what i paid for them

Thanks guys (and you to icemaid)
I bought them from Volco, like I said I used my old rubber, I think they were $250 a piece but heres the kicker. There not 5x110's, there 5x112's with a floating lug, they did not make the rim in a 5x110 so when I went in I asked fpr something close to the croft in a 5x110, the guy working there said he could fit the 5x112's on. I was a little uneasy about it at first, I figured they would not be on there as tight. The guy pointed out the window at a very clean, very Euro lookig GTI, with some 18's on it. He said thats mine out there, I have them on it and I drive it hard every chance I get, been over a year and not a single problem, there the same as your normal lugs these just give you 2mm of play to fit them on. In any case they were $6 a lug ($120 total) and come with a socket that will fit to get them on and off, kinda like having 5 lock nuts on each rim.
This would mean any 5x108 or 5x112 rim could fit the SS/SC's
Now I have to re lower it though, I hate the fact that the front wasn't lower than the rear, but when I put the stereo in, the rear really went down, so I think I'm going to switch to the H&R's to give it a lean to the front, the Eibachs are a nice smooth ride but all that wieght in the trunk is getting noticeable
