jeez, but at 70% off? thats nuts. If these are legit then this is the deal of the century, a proper set of new forged light wheels for $1000 is unheard of

ill weigh them as soon as i get them and borrow a decent scale from someone.
LSD i would call them and make sure they are still in stock. the 8.5 +22 said they had 4 left (on their ebay ad). i called and placed my order over the phone to make sure they had a full set.

i just got off the fone with buddy.. these are the real deal made by rays in japan
and are forged wheels pretty much rebadged volk mes he told me , i purchased one set only one left availble...

i asked to order a 9.5 rear and he said id have to wait till spring to arrive from japan and theyd be 750 ish per wheel... the only reason these are going for dirt cheap is over stock and only 1 set left

lol post # 1234

Redline201 and LSD, post pics when you get wheels installed. I don't think you need to do any fender mods if your not dropped and depending on the tire sizes that you'll be running. 235 on 19x8.5 may rub. You may need to heat gun the front fenders.
