FS: BNIB 18" 57S PRO by Gram Lights. Ballers step in for ultra sexy rare wheels

For sale is a set of Brand New in Box, unmounted 57s PRO by Gram Lights (Rays Engineering).

Specs

Front: 18x9 +37 26.4lbs 1/2" Lip 5x114.3
Rear: 18x10 +40 27.2lbs 1 1/2" Lip 5x114.3

Construction type: Two piece wheel with a cast flow formed face powdercoated light grey and a stainless steel jacket. Everything you would expect from one of the best manufacturers in the world. This includes, quaity finish, rolled lips, superb durability and of course attractive looks.

This set was custom ordered with a custom front offset and a custom finish straight from the factory. These wheels normally have a brushed center bolt area that gives them a smaller, cheaper appreanace (refer to pics below). However, this set has the entire face powdercated. Importantly, I believe gunmetal and black have not been an option for a while, therefore, this set is very rare.

The specs are highly suitable for 4th and 5th gen applications. They would sit flush with the fender while maximizing the use of wheel well area (refer to pics below for more details)

This was easily a $3,000 setup after all the extras. These wheels are currently made to order with a 3 month wait from Japan.

Asking price is $2700 including shipping and paypal fees.

Asking price for local pick up in Los Angeles, CA is $2500 through paypal or $2425 cash/cashiers check.

Set includes authentic rays valve stems (no caps), rays product warranty book and owners manual along with black rays covers. Center caps are always optional and can be had for about $70-$80 depending on style.

Up close high resolution individual photos available immediatly upon request








Front Concavity:




Rear Concavity:





For refrence of custom finish (hence, the polished area on the center, where as this set is fully powedercoated)




For fitment refrence: these are 18x9 +32 18x10 +35. Therefore, the wheels in this ad would sit closer to the suspension by 5mm, giving them a very tasteful, flush look.

yes this 4th gen was jacked at csun. it had 57maximum pro's. with this setup, i suggest a 235 with rolled fender lips on a very aggressive drop. Mild drops can get away with 235 with no roll. 4th gen rear can fit 10.5 and depending on offset, 11's with a poke too.

I am not in a rush to sell these wheels by any strech of the imagination, I would gladly throw them on my car so maybe you can save up your money within the next few weeks and put that on top of the $1500 =). I am local so you can literally pick them up for $2425 cash/paypal gift!

Please refrain from trashing a thread with opinions, specially when you seem to have no true knowledge of higher end wheels. We would love to see pics of your SSR's when you get them tho.

I easily knew that when making this thread but its worth a shot. The offset is a little high for the Z33 platform but they will soon be on supra/is/s2k and g35 sedan forums.

You were known as VIP Maxima, or something like that back in the day, right?. Anyways, I just read a few of your posts where you said it got stolen/stripped.... did you get it back and post pics? I am interested to see what it looked like after it was stripped - sorry about the morbid request, these things just interest me. I can provide pics of my smashed 4th gen too if need be, lol.

I remember getting my first 4th gen back in the day, and using the 4th gen in the above posted pics for reference as to what I wanted mine to look like. I too read about it being stolen and stripped....such a goddam shame.

On the other hand, I love your new QT1 AE too. SO clean looking. GLWS.
