Sorry if I am being a little mean, but 2500 including tires its a JOKE. Its like you go to Lexus dealer for a brand new GS but offer to pay 30k OTD!! I recommend you do your homework first before extend this kind of insulting offer.

I am NOT trying to low ball and I am not trying to talk *****,but Thats what I think they are worth to me, being used and all(even 500miles). Yes they do retail for $3200 but you dont buy them for $3200, do you? My friend bought a brand new set with tires for $3400. I found a brand new set of the same rims in 20inches for $2699.99. Check this site(gruppe-s.com) for proof = http://www.gruppe-s.com/Clearance/Clearance.htm . And those are in stock, ready to go. Why would I want to pay almost the same for used rims. Even a brand new set of the same rims go for about $3000 (check website http://www.gruppe-s.com/SSR/SSRMinerva.htm ), but yes you got to wait for them but hey they are new. Anyways GOODLUCK with the sale bro.

Those 20s' have the offests for G35 coupe/ 350Z, they probably stock those for a while and try to get ride of those with a cheap price.
For brand new 19s', don't u need to add sales tax? That'll bring the total up to almost $3300.
Tommy is selling for $2500, that's almost $800 off and u don't need to wait for two months.

If ur friend got a set for $3400 with tires, I would say great deal, u should jump on it too. There are many great deals out there. It's just the matter if u can find one. Like some member here found a set of brand new super chrome staggered Work Rezax II in 20s' for $3500.

Yeah, those 20" Minervas (although a good price) wouldn't work on the GS-wrong offset.
I have to agree that Tommy's price is certainly fair-maybe not the killer deal of the century, but considering the extremely low miles and condition of the wheels still quite fair. Everybody knows somebody that got something super cheap somewhere...
The tires would be around $850-900 PLUS mounting and balancing. Figure in tax and shipping costs (if applicable) and $3200 starts to sound pretty good.
Couple of questions:
~ Are those tires the "standard" 19" staggered size (i.e. 245/35 and 275/30)?
~ One website I saw indicated that these wheels were cast, not forged. Could you clarify? Thanks!

Mike: the minervas are semi forged. I dont know exactly what it means but i can definately tell you they are much stronger than cast and lighter than my old 18 inch i used to have. For the staggered setup i'm selling, those are the correct tires sizes.

Eric: You noticed why i never replied to avrfc3s post?? Well before i acquire this set of wheels from Japan, i did come across to the website avrfc3s mentioned above and found out that they dont stock the correct offset for the GS. Also if i wanted a different offset size i'll need to wait for 2 months and the price wont be the same they have posted on the website, because they consider a custom size. Simple as that. I dont wanna pay 2600.00 and get some wheels that wont fit my car. For the price of 2500.00 (wheels only with free lug nuts, hub centric ring and locks) that i'm selling for, i'm already taking a huge loss. Dont forget i need to pay taxes, and air freight shipping cost and custom fees. If any of you guys think my price is high and not reasonable feel free to lurk somewhere else. I have done business with many members here on CL and i never have a problem with them so far.

If I remember correctly, semi-forged is to heat up a piece of aluminum till it gets soft, then press it with the some pressure to make it into the shape.

Got a chance to meet Tommy and see these wheels. Man, if I were in the market for a set of 19s right now, I'd be all over these Minervas. They are awesome in person (pics don't do justice) and like new condition!
Someone should jump on this..
