New Vette Rims & Tires / Auto Cross 17"x8" / 17" x 11"
Up for sale is a set of "new" wheels from Vintage Wheels Works #48. These rims are an updated size of the old style "Mini Lites" used on several sport cars back in the day. The front rims have 4" Back Spacing with new Mickey Thompson's Street Comp 245/45/17 tires / rear rims have 5" Back Spacing with new Mickey Thompson's 315/35/17 Street Comp tires. The bolt pattern is 4.75" and included are new lug nuts / chrome center caps. These rims/ tires were used as a "roller" only and have never been on the road! In fact, the white lettering/numbers are still showing on the top of the tread on these tires!
I just purchased a 69 Corvette Resto Mod and these rims were included in the deal. The prior owner was building this Vette to Auto Cross race and was going to flare the fenders. I decide not to go that route and will maintain the factory fares! The cost of these rims/tires new were $410 ea. for front rims / $127 ea. tire / rear rims were $460 ea. / tires $152 ea. for a grand total of $2298 not counting shipping/mounting cost which was approximately another $200.
I'm asking $1500+ shipping (OBO) for the rims/tires which is a savings of $1000 over the original cost of these new rims/tires! So is you are building an Auto Cross car, or any custom Chevy/Corvette, GM product this would be a nice rim/tire combination for your project! Please send me an email if you have any questions or interest in these rims/tires.
