Is this a good deal?

This guy i work with is selling his Niche Shock 17's in silver with Kumho tires (215/40/17) for $800. He bought them last june and took them off in november. The tires looked perfect but i am not sure if this is a good deal or not. also will this tire size rub at all even in hard turning. Thanks for any feedback.

So you don't think it is a very good deal? and also what size tire should i get, regardless if i get these rims or not because i don't want any rubbing at all.

since they are niche....im assuming they are chrome rims??

even if they arent....with tires and rims....that is a pretty good price.....oh and use the tire calculator at the top of the page....i did it for you and they wont rub....plenty of room...unless you have your car dropped like 4 inches

id go for it

Actually they are not chrome wheels this is what they look like if you haven't seen them before..... I am not sure if these would look very good with a silver car. Any opinions?

the niche shocks are the only model i like from that company, so in my opinion, if the tires are in good shape, then i say go for it. if i were the buyer, id take into consideration that they have been used for sometime now, so maybe offer like 650 or 700 tho...
