17 & 18" Black C6 wheels & tires - SOLD
Do any of you find yourselves saying "Man, summer's almost here; I'd like a sweet set of sinister-looking rims for my F-Body, but I don't have a freakin' grand to throw around." If so, you may be in luck.
Why? Because I have a set of rims from a C6 Corvette. I got them used, but to my knowledge they are genuine GM wheels, not aftermarket. They're this style, black with silver lip. I will upload pictures of the actual rims tomorrow. They're 17 x 9.5 and 18 x 10.5. They have Goodyear Eagle F1 tires mounted, 275/40-18 on the back, 245/45-17 on the front. There's very little tread left, though (especially in the rear--funny how that happens!), so they'd get you through a summer of driving at most. Or, you could just do smoky burnouts until the cords show and then pick up some new rubber. Whatever, I don't judge. A couple of the rims do have some light curb rash (from the previous owner--I pretty much never parallel park). It's just on the silver lip, not on the black painted surfaces. Overall, they look decent on a driver, but I wouldn't put 'em on a car you were planning on taking to SEMA or anything.
I've always thought they looked a little...well, you know...on my third gen since it has drum brakes in the back though, and since she needs some work, I've decided to get rid of 'em. Four hundred clams and they're yours.
I'll have pics of the wheels themselves tomorrow when I can drag them out in daylight and get some good shots.
Oh yeah, I also have a set of four 2" billet spacers with press in studs and two sets of lug nuts for using these on a third-gen car, for $100. I'd prefer to sell them all together, but will separate if it comes to that.
I'm guessing it's probably going to be about $120 to ship these. I'd prefer you pick them up, to be honest, but I'm willing to ship. I'm in Dayton, OH. So are the rims.
Edit: Just sold these. Thanks everyone.

Re: 17 & 18" Black C6 wheels & tires - $400 - Dayton, OH - Spacers, too!
Okay, nothing but rain and gloom outdoors. My camera doesn't really take the best indoor pictures, alas, but I thought I should get something up, so I dragged them inside for some quick photos. The tread depth is actually better than I remembered on three of the four tires--there's a little bit to go before it hits the wear bars, about 3/32, maybe? The other one (one of the rears) is a few whiskers shy of the wear bars.
They need to be cleaned up and polished, which I will try to do on Monday, and get better pics if it isn't gray and rainy. Here's one rear and both fronts (the fronts are the ones with minor rash--both rears are in good shape).

I showed this to my friend and he said to offer you $500 shipped for everything (including the spacers) to 33404. You can send them freight on a pallet if it's cheaper, we have a forklift at his shop. Let me know, thanks

Thank you all for the inquiries and offer. I just sold the whole shebang to a nice dude with $500 cash and a slick black '90 RS.
