A guy that used to be in my Corvette club sold his vette and these were his auto x wheels. I got the wheels with Kumho Victoracers on them for $500!

This is the first time I have ever been able to get a deal like this too! He started at $1,000 about 6-8 months ago and I've just been holding out and hoping that noone would pick them up. I guess he wanted to get rid of them because out of the blue he sent me an email and said "How does $500 sound?" - I said "When and where do I pick them up?"
