Interested in stock wheels if and when you make the switch. SRS ---

I figured since I was replacing the wheels anyways, I’d get the black, but I’m torn. I love black wheels but I’m thinking maybe they wouldn’t quite look right. I just absolutely hate gray wheels, they look too plain. Maybe I’ll do a slightly darker gray or something… who knows. > . How much would you really save by buying a whole other set of wheels though? A set of tires is probably less than half the price of a decent set of wheels and tires last around 30k so figure the current set and two more sets, atleast 90k miles to make the cost of a smaller set of wheels worth it. ---

Tire savings would be around $70/tire (my cost). The wheels would be around $400 - $500. So the wheels would pay themselves off in the 2nd set of tires. Sent from my XT907 using Tapatalk 2 ---

Hey OP, I think sketchy is interested in your stock wheels. ---

PJB if he sells the stock wheels it’d offset a good chunk of the cost of new wheels as well. ---

I will be selling these, but not until it’s actually time to get new tires… so it’ll be a while. I’ll keep you in mind sketchy (if you are still interested when the time comes). ---
