Would you buy the 19in Rays forged G35 rims with bridgstone potenza tires (with around 75% of the tread left) with very minor curb rash if you found them for 1300$

I thought these were easily 2000+$ rims without tires?

I dont think I'de put them on my car but if I did go through with it they would go on there for a while to see what it would look like.

Seems to be a very good deal. Obviously, I would never buy something like that. But I wouldn't consider it a stupid decision, if you are getting them for the right purpose. (if you know what I mean lol)

Well I just contacted the seller. If they are still for sale I am going to go check them out and most likely buy them. From there I will probably throw them on my car to see how it looks but I deff have no plans to put 19s on my car, so I would probably sell them and try and make some $.

btw there are the same rims on ebay with a Buy It Now price of 1000$ with tires but the seller doesnt have enough (and positive enough) feedback for me to risk it. But if you live around Gresham Oregon and can pick them up locally from this guy I'de say jump on this right now!

Check how much the new ones cost to make sure that the whole process worth it. Also ask local shops how much they will charge you to fix that curb rush.

If you check on g35driver, the prices of the G35c 19" wheels and tires have come down quite a bit. A lot of people are selling them for about 1500 these days in perfect condition and no curb rash.
