Default What wheels? Stern ST-7s or HP Racing Lightnings?
Alright im looking to buy some new rims for my SC and here area two local deals i found

I have for sale a set of Stern ST-7 wheels. Hyper Black finish with polished lip. 18x8.5 front and 18x9.5 rear 5x114.3. I don't know the offset but its probably low 30s. will allow for test fits for people that are interested. pictures taken today, tires are all 245.40.18 Continentals. One wheel has a curb rub but appears to have been reworked some and is smooth to the touch. Wheels located in Marietta. http://www.sternwheels.com/

$700 .obo.








^
curb rub




decent tread fronts.


good tread rears.
or

Want to Trade My Rims or $600 18x8 +15ish





They are HP Racing Lightnings in a custom or discontinued width. Centercaps are $15 from HP.

The tires are all good but different sizes. They came like that lol. So youll need two tires to make it match. a 215 or 225 / 40 in the front and a 235/40 in the rear. All tires on them are good so yes you can just sell them and buy a new size.

Loking for somthing like MB, Rota, Sportmax XXR 962, similar
my current SC

hey bro i have those HP's on my car currently. They def look better than those other black wheels. Below are some pics for your reference. The only difference is that mines are bigger 19", and a lower offset.
