Haha I am so tempted to bid on these... but am too afraid of what he'd want to ship them to Canada.

Yeah they are 4x108... old audi, or new ford focus... well 4x108 is used by ford, lotus, and some volvo's I believe... as well as the old audis. Ah well, sold for 42 bucks. Bargain!

Yea, I didn't realize they were 4 lug, otherwise, they would have been a sweet deal. I wonder if the guy is kicking himself right now for selling them for so cheap. The winning bid was what, like $50. Can't argue with that if you've got an older Audi.

So is that a good deal no matter how crappy they are? I don't know. You get what you pay for. I guess if you are stuck with super crap wheels now, then this would be a good solution.

Well, note: californians... I was saying if you could pick them up locally, they'd be a screamin deal. Can't argue with 42 bucks US for a set of near mint alloys. Could easily sell them for 250 or so on craigslist or something, come time winter. Somebody would pay that, opposed to spending nearly that for a set of new steels. I know somebody with a focus, which is how I found those... and for 42 bucks, if they hadda been local, I'd have been all over them. I don't particularly love the wheel... but I've seen worse, and, like I've said a few times already... 42 bucks.

Yeah, that makes sense then. You would have the chance of turning 1 bar tab into maybe 4 bar tabs.

Haha, well... yeah. When you say it THAT way... [:-]

But I am a (virtually) unemployed student, so I look for things like this to pick up some money here and there.
