Is this a good deal?

Hey guys,
Are SI (99-0) rims for $250 with bald tires a good deal?
They are in good condition with 2 marks on them.

I did search but I'm just wondering if prices have changed since.
Thanks

Iono since the tires are bald. New tires would run, what? $250 installed? So $500 w/ new tires? Hmmmm . . . . I would look at some 18" Enkei Bortex that Im sellin

250 for 4 rims isn't bad. If you want them with tires, I got 4 of them, powdercoated anthracite with good stock tires in my garage... I was trying to sell em for 425

I would buy them from you but I'm in CA and shiping is probably a bitch.

Nodnero, I can't handle 18's...not with the 100+ miles of daily driving I do.

I guess if I feel happy about the price I should buy them.
I need to buy new tires on my stock 14"s anyway, so I thought this would be a good time.

i might sell mine if the price is good enough. they are brand new 99-00 si rims from the dealer and have Falken ZIEX-512s on them w/only about 1,000 miles on both wheels and tires. i might keep them though because i like em and might want them for resale of my car. yeah, $250 isn't that bad but you still have to buy tires.

I like how this thread has turned into a pissing match to see who can outbid who.

Dude, if they are the newish Si rims, you should know they are heavy.. that's my $0.02

im not trying to outbid anyone, i was just saying i might sell them. if he was interested, cool...if not i don't care either. there is no pissing match.

si rims aren't that heavy. they look good and come straight from honda, so you know that they work well w/our cars. they also ride much better than 18s which is what LIKEaFERIO is looking for

Don't want to start another thread so I'm going to ask here:
Where is the cheapest place I can get the Honda 16" 7 spoke rims?
They look like the design on the CTR.
H and A has them on special for $115 a piece + shipping = $500.

Anyone know where I can get em cheaper?
I might just go with these.

JCiv03 is on a distinguished road
^^^ Wow, that's about the cheapest i've seen those HFP rims. I'd say get them while you can for that price. Just my two cents....
