Default FS: 18" L-Sportline M-IV & Pirelli Tires 245/40ZR/18 - Needs fixing - Lots of pics

*PLEASE READ CAREFULLY*

Type: Five L-Sportline Model IV - Single Piece Wheels
Size: 18"
Width: 18.5"
Offset: 45

*SOLD - MODS PLEASE CLOSE THREAD*


I had these for about 3 years now from a CL member. I took them off two weeks ago to rotate the inner and outside tire walls since I had camber wear on them. And while putting them noticed that 3 of 4 had hairline cracks on them which never leaked before. Now that the tire came off I guess the seal of the tire to the rim where the cracks were is not creating the same seal. I have tried to remove them and put the tire bead sealant but worked for a day but did not hold.

Four of five rims has cracks on them and releasing air. I will do my best to explain each rims and problems with them. If you know a place who welds rims this is a steal.

There is a 5th wheel same size and specs. In storage. Just the wheel no tire. Has a hairline crack as well.

Tires are Pirelli PZero Nero M&S 245/40ZR/18. Ultra High Performance All Season Tires

Just for visibility really. I took a wet pad and took them right off. Just to be clear on the blemishes and issues. I was to lazy for MS paint anyways! LoL!

Wish I was closer and I would take them off your hands. I am sure you have no interest in shipping or if it would even be worth the cost. Seen like a great deal even with the defects.

Yeah shipping would be about $80 and not worth the time to find boxes etc. Thanks for the bump and reply. I'll miss these rims.
