Default Rim Swap worth a look!

Hey guys

Currently ive got a set of EL GT 17's on my eb i paid $900 and then tyres where free about a mounth ago brand new so they have not got a single mark in them. But sitll im fair keen on pre AU, AU 17" xr8 rim which i was goign to buy instead of, so if anyone has a clean set and wants to swap me for mine pm me or contact me on msn at terrible_svann@hotmail.com! By the way if you have scratched up buggered rims dont bother and if you have nay other type of rim dont bother!

I noticed in that add you posted a link to, the guy says that the wheels are +38 offset, whats up with that? AFAIK E-series are +0 or very close to?

what size are the rims you have? 17X8.5? or only 17X8? if they are 17X8.5 I might be interested in buying them straight off you, then you could buy a brand new set of whatever wheel you want...

PM me if you like...
