Hey guys, check out this deal I got, got all 4 of these saleen wheels 18x9 for $200. I am not quite sure what I am going to do with them, this is not a for sale thread but I think I am going to put em up for sale if they dont sell I'll go for a 5 lug conv. I think its the tires that are going to kill me which is why I am leaning more towards flipping them.

Well I got rid of my cobras a couple months ago. If I decide to go 5 lug and use these it will put my turbo project on hold for a while having to buy tires. I would really like to flip em and use the extra cash for more turbo parts but they are SOOOO tempting. I am in no hurry so I have time to decide, i did put them up for sale on corral so we'll see what happens.

Yea I wouldnt be able to spend 500 on tires. I could finish my turbo project and have the car running with that kind of money.

I speak for myself here.... but i don't know how smart of an idea it is to be telling everybody how much you paid for these rims if your trying to resell them. But thats just me.
Nice steal man! If the rears were 18X10 I would give ya $500 for them. Im sure you can sell them easy enough.
I am not trying to sell them on this forum which is why i dont mind telling you guys what I paid for them. Where I have them listed I did not post what I paid for them and they happen to see this thread its still not a big deal.

It dosent matter what you paid. I have paid 300.00 for a car and sold it for 1000.00 and I did very little work to it. Point is if you can make a profit more power to you.

That is such a good deal i would hide them in my garage for awhile... you have to think about how much you paid... $200... thats really nothing compared to what your going to drop on the car in the future for a part that is no where near as cool. i say stash them for later use... you know you will want to 5 lug conversion some day dont lie. good deal no matter what you do.. just my 2 cents
Thats actually not a bad idea either. Im gonna keep them up for sale for a while but if they dont sell I am gonna keep them.
The cheapest I've been able to find tires is 120 a pop through a commercial account at my work.

Shelve'em and hold out for later use unless you absolutely have to sell them to finish the project.
I love those wheels, but I thought I remember reading that they are really heavy. That, and they would look like overkill on anything but a Cobra brake 5 lug swap car... Drums would look silly behind those wheels.
I say flip 'em. Foxes need a staggered set of wheels anyway.
