Default *FS 20" Staggered Chrome Auto-Couture Stimulous 3-Piece 20 X 8.5, 20 X 10 in SoCal*

I am selling a set of very rare and very expensive chrome Auto-Couture Indicator wheels made by the company Work in Japan with a 5 * 114.3 offset. These wheels are three piece forged aluminum and have a staggered fitment. The front is a 20 x 8.5 with an ET41 and the rear is a 20 x 10 with an ET39. These wheels would bolt up to many Japanese cars, including Lexus and others.

The wheels are in overall good condition with some minor flaws as seen in the photos. Two wheels come with tires that will need to be removed, as they are unusable. One wheel has a bend (in photo). The others are straight and true. The wheel with the bend also has some minor flaking around the lip. None of these wheels have any curb rash. One wheel has some touch up areas (in photo). These are the only imperfections with the wheels. There are three centercaps with one missing.

These wheels retailed for well over $5800 (www.auto-couture.com). I am selling these for less than 1/6 of the original asking price! I have presented these wheels as honestly as I can, and I have nothing to hide. These wheels are EXTREMELY rare and are VERY desirable in the VIP automotive scene. I am located in Irvine, Orange County, California. Please add 3% if paying with Paypal.

$950 pickup!!! (that's almost 1/6 of the original selling price!)

I am an avid member on the following Mercedes boards with the same screen name of OCKlasse (club202.com, mymbonline.com, mbworld.org) please email me at trefivedotcom@yahoo.com with any further questions!

Unfortunately, I don't. I bought them with the intention that they were 5 * 112 (that was what the owner specified to me) and then when I received them, I discovered that they were not. I was going to go through the hassle of redrilling them, but have since bought some Brabus wheels which means these need to go.

Bump for a good friend of mine. Do not hesitate to purchase from him. Everything he has is mint. He is a true car freak.

I have seen these wheels in person, and the construction of the wheels is nothing short of astonishing. That should be expected from such great wheels which are made by one of the best wheel companies, WORK.

Bump for you brandon!

How much would it run to get these things looking pristine again?

$500 for a chrome refinishing and you're done

I would also like to thank 912inc for pointing out to me that these are in fact Auto Couture Indicators, and not the Stimulous model.
