17x9 5x100 (and 5x114.3) Sportmax 050 rims (38 offset). they have 255/40r17 falken azenis tires on them with about half life remaining  
the rims i bought new from a vendor on ebay, myself and bryon picked up the last 2 sets available. they have been discontinued, they are a great affordable rim and weight about 19lbs on my postal scale at work. they clear brembos and stoptech bbk’s  
they where originally a polished chrome paint. I panted them with Krylon gold wheel paint, and cleared them with a rim specific clearcoat.  
they look really good for a rattle can paint job. a few members on unysoc who have seen them in person.

when i got them

Nope. Just to give the OP an idea, I payed $400 for 18" Sportmax 962’s in mint condition with a good set of Falken Azenis RT-615 tires.
