Title: 15 inch aluminum "turbine" style wheels
Post by: Cornfed85 on November 03, 2014, 02:07:21 AM
I have a set of four aluminum rims for sale. They are the turbine style. I was told they came off of a Fox Mustang and will fit on all four lug Fox Body cars. They have tires on them, 2 have a little bit of tread left, the other 2 are almost bald. I recently had them balanced, so they are ready to go on the car if you so choose. I am asking $115 O.B.O.
PM me your phone number and I can text you pictures.
Thanks!

Price lowered $95 OBO. Need gone.

I will trade for 14" tires, I'm needing a set of four with good tread. 215-225s are what I'm looking for.
Thanks

Any curb rash on the outer lip?  How about the clear flaking?  I understand there will be some, just wondering how bad?

There is some curb rash on one or two of the rims, not bad though. Honestly, there's not much clear flaking.

Reduced price. Now $65. This is way less than what I paid, plus I spent an extra $30 having them balanced. PM me your phone number or email and I can get you pictures.

Still for sale. I need these gone. I will trade for some narrower 15" rims. I bought some tires and they are too narrow for these rims.

$65 OBO. If sold by next weekend I'll drop the price to $50.

There is some clear flaking, but for $50 you can't go wrong. I've got a guy from Indiana interested in them, but I'd have to ship them to him. If you're interested in them I'll give you first chance at them.

Thanks!

I don't want to come across like I'm so desperate for cash that I'm willing to give them away. I know they aren't the best wheels, but I do think they will clean up nice and wouldn't take a whole lot to refinish. I don't have a way to get the old tires off (aside from taking them to a tire shop). They'll weigh too much to ship with the tires on.

I need someone who is either in Kansas or willing to come to Kansas. I can meet you somewhere in Kansas, but, being a college student, I don't have a lot of time to be messing around with shipping and logistics. I'd prefer not to ship them at all.

I would like to get a spare set to refinish.  My schedule is just a mess right now.  Isnt Mcpherson out by Hutch?    Mapquest says 2hr 40 min one way.

Maybe meet in Emporia????

Update: I now have a complete set of 215/70R15 Hankook Optimo tires for sale as well. These WILL fit on the turbine wheels. They have less than 2000 miles and the tread is excellent! I'd really like to sell them together, but will sell separately. I don't have the means to ship, but I can meet you somewhere in Kansas. I was asking $60 for the wheels and I was going to ask $210 for the tires, but if sold by next Saturday, I'll make it $230 for everything. As always I'll consider offers.

Ttt.

I've got a guy that's interested in the turbine rims. I'd really like to sell the wheels and tires together though. It's really not a bad deal at all. 4 turbine rims, 4 almost brand new tires. All for under $250! I'm loosing money on the rims selling them at $50. I paid $80 for them, plus another $30 to have them balanced!
I'll break even on the tires. I paid $200 for the set. The first person who will give me $200 for them gets them.

I am just really needing the money to fix the steering/suspension issues my '85 is having. Along with being a full time college student, I have a job as well.
At this point I'll take offers. I have no use for the rims/tires, and they are taking up space in my one car garage.

Thank you to those who have even looked at this thread.

I could probably meet you at the Kansas/Nebraska border somewhere. I'm a little over 2 hours from the Chester/Hebron area. Or we could meet somewhere else along the border. I have Saturday afternoons and Sundays off.

Update:
Still for sale. Guy is interested in the rims, but at $50 I'm basically giving them away.
Tires still for sale as well.
