Got a hell of a deal today...

So I was driving around, and saw a used tire shop wheels out in front of the building. I saw a set of Altima SE-R wheels and tires. Went inside and asked what the deal was. Long story short, I got all four wheels with tires for 200 bucks. That is a good deal, right? Pics to follow once I figure out how to post them from my phone.

$200 is really pricey. I'll go ahead give you $220 to help you recoup some of your lost funds.

I thought so too. Didn't really research it too much, but it just seemed like something to jump on.

220? Hmmm, let me think about that....haha. Nah, I think I'm good.

Probably gonna ride on them for now. My old rims had the clear coat peeling, and the tires were about shot.
Is there a way to put pics up from the iPhone, or do I have to put them up somewhere else and link to them?

You probably have to put them photobucket and then post the link here

Thanks. I actually live in Yulee, just north of Jax. They were at some little hole in the wall place near my house there.

Yeah, a drop, urethane bushings, and tint are in the near future. That's once I don't live on a dirt road anymore though.

Four rims and tires. The bargain Gods must of been with you that day. I'm trying to trade some G35's for the SE-R's with one of my boys except his rims are all curb rashed up but I can fix that myself

I got lucky with these. There are a few scratches, and they were dirty as hell. No rash though. Even the insides of the wheels were clean. They cleaned up really nice.

The ser rims aren't really great looking normally but its the color that makes them suit your car. Normally i think they just look like Sentra rims, but they look great on the beige

Just for safety, double check that your tires are not over 6 years old, and the wheels are in good condition.
I'm just paranoid of super good deals like what you got, and always think there is something amiss.

Here two links to help you figure out how to read the date.

I was a little leery too. The tires are fairly new, and the car rides and drives great, so the rims are straight. I'm still gonna check out your link though. Good looking out...
