I'm so excited I just had to show you.....

I've always admired the GT500 Rims so I bought this set off eBay which were pulled fresh off a new one for 22 inchers (!) The Goodyears even ride smoother than the Bridgestones I had on the old Torq Thrusts.




I kept the running horse and made sure the installer oriented the running horse to the bolt holes.



...and they're made in the USA!

I paid 1400, which is less than the sum of the parts, figuring the rims list for 280 each, a set of 4 tpms included (listing around 300) and tires included. Tires are Goodyear F1 Supercar which are on sale on TireRack for around 170 each for the front and around 200 each for the rears (?) His asking price is 1399 plus 160 shipping so basically I offered 1240. Essentially, I asked for free shipping and he accepted the offer.

The fellow shipped very quickly to my tire dealer whom I made prior arrangements. They just took off the old ones and slapped the new ones on. (Checked tire pressure, etc). I left the old rims and tires there for my buyer to pick up. Quick and easy, methinks.

I sold my old rims and tires to a co-worker and I think I'm getting a fair price. I also sold him my concept wheels in the past. I'll bet his wife is killing him.
