You can find a few sites that sell them by goggling it, but they are quite expensive. I believe it was $295 per rim.

I actually have a set that are sitting in my garage that are in great shape that I replaced at about 20k miles due to one of the tires having a flat that could not be repaired. I had always planned on getting new rims when I needed to replace when I needed new tires, but since I got the flat I decided to pull the trigger on new rims (larger diameter) when the flat happened. All the other tires are in terrific shape, with just one needing replacement. I live in the Phoenix area so obviously shipping should be a consideration.

Since they have been sitting for so long I am willing to take offers if anyone is interested.

You would be very lucky if you could find Thundercloud rims at twice that price, IMHO.

Ill get some pics posted in the next day or so since I have had some interest. I honestly didn't think there was this much interest so I was a bit unprepared to deal with the rapid responses.

Depending on the condition of the rim, It will be sweet to have a set of TC wheels

Anyone interested in a set of 18 inch Rx rims? They are in pretty good condition with some surface scratch on them? I can get some pictures up if need be?

This is the kind of rims that they are.
