Wtb: Isf wheels (any year)
I'm interested in buying a set of 4 ISF wheels (without tires). They must be in good to excellent condition. I Like both the 1st gen wheels and the newer ones as well so I don't care which they are. Thanks!

double crap! lol that would have been a better deal! (not have to repaint wheels and your coming with sensors!) If for some reason the seller backs out (doubt he will though) I'll definitely buy yours!!

LOL, yep those are the ones! Unfortunately he didn't fall through and they are intransit right now. Maybe they'll get lost or severely damaged in transit? 
I'll let you know if I get lucky!

Well I got three of the four wheels yesterday, and I'm not impressed with the paint job on these things.... They look like they were painted with a paint can!!! 
GRRRR Now i'm definitely going to have to shell out more money to get these looking nice. (not to mention the trouble of trying to match the original color) Anybody have any good ideas on that?

I've was thinking about that, but I've read on some other forums, that powder coating may make the wheels weaker and more prone to failure due to the high baking temps.... (apparently a lot of track drivers won't PC their wheels for this reason)

So even more bad news... the wheel repair/repainting place that i'm using to repaint these wheels have increased the price from $130/wheel to $195/wheel as they have to ship them to another place to get them blasted/stripped and because of the "special" paint. OUCH!!!! So I'll be spending $900 more for these in the end over what I could have bought from ISFSteve. .... TRIPLE CRAP!!!
