Anyone in South East want to swap wheels?

Postby zachmac » Mon Oct 30, 2017 8:13 pm

I know this is the opposite of what most folks want to do but I am leaning toward going DOWN in wheel size. I want to go to 14" (preferred) or 13" original style wheel. I have a very nice set of 15" Team Dynamic wheels with 35mm offset I bought from Auto Ricambi with Yokohama tires from Tire Rack in 205 50 / R15 size. With lug nuts all in I spent about $1000. I would be interested in cash and a set of stock wheels and tires in exchange and ideally would meet up with someone located nearby and just do the swap. Cash difference would depend on wheels you have and condition of tires and wheels. Anyone nearby interested?

My first preference would be a set of 14" turbos but I'd go steel 13s with hubcaps as well. Looking to go back to original size and appearance.

These wheels were intended to make room for a big brake kit but I am not going that way now.

I'll also of course sell them outright but shipping tends to be prohibitive so local or within a few hundred miles still makes sense.

Hey zac, well I have just what you want, new original stock Tiger Paws and wheels on the original 58,000 mi car that for appearance only should be repainted. Your tires and wheels would be acceptable for my 71 spider. Maybe we can work the Hanford swap, my tires and wheels for $400 is very reasonable for the quality and condition and rarity
of my wheels and I am an existing "customer".
