The deal I am in the process of working is $1750 (wheels, tpms) no tires since I don't need them yet. But not many at that price, hence why I did another jump...

Did that with my coil overs...someone help me!

Depending on the person around $2300-$3000 with tires. Straight from GM about $4,000 just for the wheels.

I have a complete takeoff set for sale (rims, tires, caps and TPMS), less then 800 miles on them for $2300.
Thought you were only local and not looking to ship?

Yeah the replica's are around $1030 shipped w/o tires, I just saw some true 10 spokes that were powder coated in the way I want for my car and had to follow suit since I didn't know how the replicas would work in the paint scheme I want.

Yeah I was trying to find a set without tires since I'm going to have them powder coated. And I'll probably stick with my idea of going DWS's since KS weather varies even in summer (last May we had snow...) and then get some forgestar/forgeline for summer/track combo.

The poster I replied to is local.

Don't forget most V6's don't have an LSD/posi rear end either, which is something that finally sunk in to me late last year. Spinning just one tire isn't nearly as effective as spinning both.

I just do a 2-3 second spin and then roll on up and I've started to do it more in the water box instead of past it, to help get both tires to let go.
