Default Chrome G35 18" coupe wheels with new Blizzaks, clears BBK's

I have a set of chrome G35 18" coupe rims
(condition is 8.5-9/10)

I had new Bridgestone Blizzak (best snow tires rated by consumer reports) tires mounted
and used it for 3 weeks less then 150 miles

still have full tread depth - measured with a tire guage
tires are also runflates (you ever change a tire in the snow? I didn't want to do that again, so I paid more for the runflats)

tires were over $650
mounting and high speed balancing was $150
rims were over $850

I'm asking $1300 (firm) picked up in NYC
no shipping

don't get caught without snow tires for the winter

zero curb rashs

pm me your emails and I will send you the full 2mb pics

This should not even be considered as a shared cost. Nice rims, Nice tires, Bad price.

Well why don't someone give the man a real good offer less the cost of balancing.

If it's too expensive throw out a figure, no?

to expensive? LOL
I'd like to see anyone buy a 18" winter package thats clears BBK's for less then $1,500 (providing you don't buy steel wheels with the plastic hub caps)
Tire Rack's closest match to the above criteria is still over $2k

FYI: I bought the exact same wheels WITH summer tires (rear 2 were bald, still using front 2 tires) from a member here for 450shipped.

I also bought these rims (not in chrome) with all season performance tires (Avon Tech M550 A/S F:225/45/18 R:245/45/18) 95%/80% tread F/R for $575. You quote the rims costing $850 dollars when in the used marketthey only cost ~400-500 with no tires and no curbs. Maybe the fact that you paid $150 dollars to mount and balance this set, shows your actual knowledge of how much things really cost.
