Looking for buyer to split set of rims for drag days

Here's my situation...I've been looking for a pair of 3rd generation RX7 wheels (16x8 @~13 to 14 lbs each) to use for track days. I found a set locally from a guy who works at a Mazda dealership who has a full set. They were apparently new pull offs and are still in the boxes. I only need two, but he won't split the set. Anyone interested in the other two? He wants $400 for the set. I want to gauge some interest before I meet the guy, inspect them, snap some photos, and front the cash. PM me if interested.

Give me a zip code and I can see what shipping would be. Probably easiest and cheapest to ship separate packages.

I'm in Cincinnati, Ohio so that's halfway local but i'm not sure if i'll be able to dish out 200 right now. In a couple weeks i'll be able to though. How soon are you looking to do this?

I can wait, and from the sounds of it, the guy has been sitting on theses rims for a while. Let me know.

Ok i'll let you know what happens. I'm still deciding if i should just get slicks for sawblades, or buy these 16s and put slicks on them.

dead2fall - It looks like if they were shipped separately, they should not cost more than $12 per rim. That is UPS Ground with estimating the box size to be 20x20x10 weighing 20lbs. So if interested, you'd be in for about $225 or so.

4x4 Max - I don't know what I would do if I were in your situation. The sawblades are halfway light, and will hold a slick. If you already have them, it would be tempting to save your money on the rims and invest it in the slicks. I've got the heavy 16" OEM SE wheels, so I need something lighter that will hold a decent tire.
