Freaking. Score.

FaykSaleen · Apr 20, 2013

So I scored today, or at least I feel like I have.

I got some HRE 525s, only paid $40 a piece with tires and I don't know if you guys wanna know where I found them lol they're so dirty tho, they look like they're a dark grey but after some elbow grease the original silver color is starting to come out. I'm stoked to say the least :headbang:

Thoughts? Comments?

I'm actually considering putting them on my red coupe when it's done but the car would have to be pretty darn low to make it look good considering that they are 17s.

If I'm not diggin' how they look on the sn95 I'll probably keep them for a future period correct foxbody Saleen build

I wouldn't mind replicas but lol they're definitely not replicas

It definitely holds air, I don't mind a bend or two as we do wheel repair/sell wheel assembly parts through our shop.

every you pull it yard i go to.. the cars are wheel-less/tireless already/ Was they sitting inside the lobby store?

ttocs · Apr 20, 2013

uuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuu-gly imo.

Pulled them off a car, the pick ur parts out here tend to have wheels on the cars but people will scavenge the shit out of them just for the tires and the wheels get sent off to a recycling yard, close call on these!

No, I know you definitely wouldn't have sold them for $100 especially considering that they once retailed for $1,600 a piece and are obsolete now lol

They're super ugly to some people, which I could see why, with super bulky tires and years of nastiness on them they look really bad. I love them and have wanted them for years.

Holy mother of finds. I'm so jealous, sell them to me! I'll give you $45 a piece and pay for shipping! Haha

I found a set of AC Schnitzer wheels at pick n pull once, got htem for like $200, sold them for $500. Think your find is a bit better though, jesus.

OnyxCobra · Apr 20, 2013

nice score, they aren't my first choice but you still got a hell of a deal. they can look good on the right car for sure.

Gold4.6 · Apr 21, 2013

Kinda look like a 99/01 cobra rim with an 03/04 mach1 rim lip and screws around the lip. But if you're happy I'm happy for you!

chris91 · Apr 21, 2013

Did I miss it or did you get all four? What kinda car did you find em on and what are the sizes? Definitely a deal of a lifetime here. You going to have them taken apart and have them re done properly? Even if you have to pay for them to be refinished you'd still make a killer profit if you sold em. Congrats on the find man!! I bet they'd look killer on the SN.
