One wheel has small road rash on one spot and one wheel has a small blemish from removing a tire. I was unable to demonstrate the blemishes with my camera. Price is firm at $750.00. Cash only. Local So Cal pick-up only. Thanks for looking.

    I was hoping they would be much lighter, thank you for doing that.

    Welcome. These wheels are specially made to reduce wind drag, and the gas mileage I got with them is equal to what the manufacturer recommends. They are 17" and made to improve the appearance over the stock 15" wheels.

    The truth is, there will be very little effect on mpg between this 25lb wheel and a 15lb wheel. You'll notice more of an effect with tire choice. The aerodynamics of this wheel help offset the extra weight. The point is, if you like them then get them then choose a very LRR tire. Either way you're going to lose mpg. It's a good price for the wheels.

    That is because you were running the OE Toyo Proxes A20 tire which is extremely fuel efficient (terrible in all other respects). Once you change to a different tire your fuel economy will drop by 3+ vs. the 15" OE wheel/tire. :)

    Thanks. Not trying to hurt your sale. The wheels look great and you are asking a very reasonable price for them. They should go fast. :)
