Default F/S 2 x 17x11 VWW V48's with tires, you'll need flares

I have a pair of V48 (minilite style) Vintage Wheel Works wheels, 17 x 11, 3-3/4" backspace with virtually brand new Kumho v700 335/35-17's.
If you are running L88 flares, then these are the perfect width/offset.

Only selling as I had a set of 18" made. So these are surplus to my requirements.
They wont be available until after Christmas as I am waiting on the powder coater for the 18's.

$600 + shipping (less than half price of new!!)

I like those rims! What is the shipping to 22407? And who would be best to get the fronts from?

You can get them direct from Vintage Wheel Works direct, if you want I could order them for you as "return customers" get a 10% discount.
Shipping woudl be about $60, I also have a spare 335/35-17 Kumho that I will include (its new)

Just to make sure I understand??? You have 3 Kumo 700 tires 1 new and two with light use and the two rims that are in like new shape? Will you take PayPal?

BTW can you send me some Pics?

I might very well be interested but would want to get a set of the fronts to match. So I have two questions:


1) What are the dimensions/profile on the front tires?

2) Where are you getting 18's made? Vintage doesn't seem to offer them, at least on their site anyway.

RSVP...thanks.

Doug

Wow you were serious then about building those 18's. Okay let me check one other thing and I will get back to you.

The Vintage wheel site says 17x9 and 4" BS in the pics of your car, so is the 4" BS correct?

Not a poser, building a car that will be in Corvette Enthusiast.

Thanks for getting back so quickly.

I will double check 2 night, I am sure they where 17 x 9.5, I have done so much emailing backwards and fowards about the rear 18's that backspace and offset measreuments have become a blur. Whatever they are, they where a stock size from VWW and took a week to get.

Nick,
Taking them off the first part of the year is fine. That will give me some time to kiss up to the wife so I can get the fronts too. Just let me know when they are off and ready to ship and I will PayPal you the money. Thanks

Looks like waterplay has first dibs. I tried to buy your billet wheels a while back and you'd sold em on eBay. I'll just mosey over to the Vintage Wheel site and order me some. Thanks for your guidance...you do have a kickass car as Stan said. He is doing the flares on my car one day very soon.

Peace.
