Boxster Cup 3 17" wheels w/ almost new Blizzak LM 22s - SE PA
 
Hi all,

I have a set of 17x7.5 - 17x9 Boxster Cup 3 wheels for sale, shod in almost new Blizzak 205/50/17 and 255/40/17 LM 22 tires. The tires have between 2500-4000 miles on them. This was my father's boxster and wheels, which I received from him last summer, thus exact mileage is not certain.

The rims a few marks on their faces - they are not perfect. They shine up great and are great for a set of wheels you are ready to drive through winter, but if you are a perfectionist you'd want to re-finish the faces as least. They are well balanced - I'm a balance fanatic and I notice a very slight vibration at a few speeds, but that could just be a worn out bushing on my car .

I'm very interested in full disclosure here so please let me know if you have any questions. Center caps are not included.

Update: current price is $525 for the set. Willing to drive 50 miles to deliver or arrange shipping paid by buyer.

Thanks for looking,

Joe

Bump - Any interest or thoughts on the price point? I'm trying to feel these out. I won't use them since my car is garaged ~4 months a year, don't want them to go to waste, and would prefer them out of my house :)

Autobot152 05-18-2011 12:16 PM

I'm interested but I am all the way in Chicago :(

JoeFromPA 05-19-2011 04:26 AM

Bump $750 OBO - willing to consider shipping for a very serious offer. I like to do pick-up because I like to know my buyers are completely satisfied - which is always a risk when buying unseen - but I will work to provide complete details and pictures to satisfy any concerns, and then arrange shipment for the right buyer.

Autobot152 05-23-2011 11:11 AM

How much would you estimate shipping would be to Chicago?

rlamb101 06-08-2011 10:13 AM

Did you sell the tires yet?
 
Just checking on the status of the sale.

JoeFromPA 08-16-2011 01:12 PM

Apologies to Rlamb for missing his post. Yes, these are still for sale.

I'm updating the price to $650. I'd like these gone. They have not been re-mounted since my original post.

This is a great set of winter tires/wheels and will make a year-round driver very happy. I am about to engage on a serious garage project involving ripping out all the drywall, re-insulating, etc., and I really need these gone.

Thanks for looking.

Joe

Bump - $600. Again, trying to clear the space in my garage, so want these out.

I appreciate interest or just thoughts on how best to sell these (even if that, *gasp*, includes recommendations on other places to post these for sale).

Thanks all,

Joe

JoeFromPA 08-28-2011 08:33 AM

Bump.

Also, you can text or call me at 267 966 5304

JoeFromPA 09-02-2011 06:41 AM

Bump to the top. I've gotten some interest and am willing to ship.

I estimate shipping for the most part to be in the $100-125 range. For a good buyer, I'm willing to make this very easy and package these babies up tight and protected.

I'm going to start dropping the price in small increments to get these out of my house/garage, but I'll give it another week before commencing. Wait me out trying to get the price down or secure them for yourself now - either way, these shoes are moving out!

Your PM inbox is full. I'm interested in the wheels if they are still available.

Todd

JoeFromPA 09-04-2011 11:28 AM

Hi Todd,

Thanks for the heads up - I've cleared a ton of space. Mostly old messages...

These are still available. I have pm'd you seperately in case you don't get this right away...

JoeFromPA 09-07-2011 01:34 PM

Down to $575 picked up or delivered by me within 50-75 miles.

JoeFromPA 09-12-2011 03:48 AM

Bump to $550 for the set. These are great winter tires that complement the boxster well. I've driven them a fair amount (maybe 500-1000 miles) and the ride is smooth, steering input is still solid, and handling remains crisp - despite switching from michelin pilot sports in a much wider and short profile.

Whoever buys these will be very happy, will have a tire that holds its own below 40 degrees, and will have zero problems getting the owner home in the event you find yourself with even a few inches on the ground.

JoeFromPA 09-19-2011 08:31 AM

Bump to $525 for the set.

This is a set of boxster-specific 17" wheels with almost new, quality winter tires mounted and balanced for less than a set of tires alone would cost. I've had a number of nibbles on this and I'm really surprised at the lack of real bites. If anyone can provide recommendations, I am very open to them - I want these out of my garage and onto someone's car who will enjoy them.

JoeFromPA 10-10-2011 08:18 AM

Sold for $525. I feel that's an awesome price.
