Nice wheels...but seriously...for a hardtop? The only hardtop worth $600-700 is going to be messed up.
Not exactly looking to sell these as much as I'd like to trade for a hardtop for my car, otherwise I'll probably just end up keeping these and try to get them polished instead. I've been waiting for them for like a month or two to get here, they are still in the boxes. I've only opened one box to show the wheel color.
I've already got some in gold, so here's an example of how they look on my 99 Miata.

Hey dude, thanks for the support! Appreciate the thread bash, bro

Why bashing? A new set shipped is $650.

M3 is always the answer.
I don't believe a thread bash was intended, just stating that the avg price for a hardtop (used in good condition) is around $1000. While your wheels new in box retail for $650. For a fair and equal trade the hard top would probably be scratched up and/or needing new seals. But that's just my interpretation.

Brain traded a hardtop for a pair of Rota Slips with tires, so it can be done...

wasn't a bash "bro" as Ken said. A hardtop under $700 will usually look like ass. Just letting you know...
But I'm sure being an internet pro you already know that.
It may be able to be done...but you're better off selling these and saving another $200 for one.

Tyler,
What color are those new grids? Hard to tell from the photos. I'd offer to take them off your hands if they were +20's :)

Woah, didn't know this thread went this far haha
like I said, if it comes down to it I'll just keep them. Was just curious if someone out there was wanting cool wheels over a hardtop, you never know.
These are the sport bronze, and yea I know you're wanting the +20
Thought you were ordering your own?
I don't live in Rockwall? Iunno. I'm usually around the downtown Ft. Worth or Grapevine area.
Mine will be here Friday. Yours almost looked silver - and that piqued my interest.
