Also posted in the C5 section....

I recently went to bigger brakes which I needed to go to 18"s up front so I will need to sell these. The wheels are the painted version. No curb rash. Barrels are still clean and not contaminated with brake dust like some get. Unfortunately I do not have caps for them. They can be purchased of auction sites for $25-50 for four fairly often. I would be happy to assist finding a set for the right price. Tires are Khumo Ecsta MX RXP run flats in almost new condition. I measured the depth at 8/32, which means they are only down 1/32. I bought the car this summer and only drove it 1000 miles. I think they were put on earlier this year by the previous owner. In all the reviews I have read the Khumos are MUCH better than the stock Goodyears. All of the complaints I have heard about the Goodyears I have not felt with these. If they made them in the sizes I need I would not hesitate to purchase them again. Tire rack has them listed at $164 front and $270 rear. They are the stock size of 245/45/17 275/40/18.

I will sell whole and include the tire pressure sensors with the package. This is off a 2001, I assume they are the originals, but can't know unless I would dismount them. If I split the package I will be taking the pressure sensors for myself. I would like to get $800 for the package, or $250 for the wheels, and $550 for the tires, Plus shipping. I would like to only sell the package locally due to weight. I am in South Bend, IN (Northern Indiana). I would be willing to drop them off or meet part way to a reasonable distance. I will ship wheels or tires. I have boxes from my new wheels, so they would be packaged well. Prices are negotiable. Also interested in full or partial trades for the following.

Longtube headers.
Aftermarket, LS6, or ported LS1 heads.
Cam
FAST Intake
Aftermarket popup Headlights, LED Tailights
Rear compartment covers
anything else please make an offer....

I would need about a week to get my wheels dismounted and get my current ones on. I am holding off mounting my new wheels and tires since I am unsure what I will be doing with the tpms. Once I know if they are selling whole or being split I can get them off the car.

Pictures...please excuse they are a little dirty from being in storage. I will fully clean them when I get them dismounted.

Wheels are sold. Make me an offer on the tires. I'll have better pictures with them unmounted in a day or two.
