Hey guys, decided to sell these and go a different route. Little bit of background info: These wheels were made by a Japanese company called Crimson Racing. They have been discontinued for a very long time. Also, there are apparently 2 versions of this wheel. The set I'm selling is the original version, which in my opinion, looks better.

Specs are as follows:

(2) 17x8 +32 offset 5/4x114.3 with Nitto NeoGen 215/45/17
(2) 17x9 +38 offset 5/4x114.3 with Nitto NeoGen 225/45/17

Finish is in white. Paint is in good condition, one or two tiny paint chips on the lip of two rims, and paint chipping from lug nut installation/removal (Not visible when the center cover is on). Would rate them 8/10. Includes four lug nut covers, four center nuts, the center lug tool, four original valve stems and caps, four red valve stems and caps (mounted), and the 20 Sparco lug nuts. These wheels have been discontinued for quite some time, so they are very VERY hard to find, especially in this size, offset, and condition.

Wheels were purchased from a local wheel importer, and tires were purchased brand new from a local shop. Rims were only mounted on the car for about 200 kms. You can still see the stickers on the wheel's treads.

Selling these wheels because I need to get some body work done. Also, something to consider: I can't get the center cap locking nuts to screw on to the wheels (external threads need to be cleaned up). I'll include the thread restorer file I was going to use to do this.

Paid $1350 total for rims, tires, mounting and balancing. Looking for Price drop from 1100: $1000 +shipping. I'm located in Winnipeg, MB, Canada, so please consider that before asking for a shipping quote. Also, if you are seriously interested, I may be willing to work with you on shipping costs.

Thanks for looking!

Here are a couple pics to show the condition of the wheels.

Looks like the front pokes out a bit, but if my car was another inch or so lower the wheels would camber in and would sit flush.

Nice! I'm sure they're authentic. If he wants to find out for sure, tell him to the check the inside lip of the rim, should have a Crimson Racing stamp. And thanks!
