    This is your chance to get a hold of RARE and LIMITED edition ultra-light Prius wheels!

    Included:
    (4) 16" Touring Edition Rims with center chrome caps
    (4) Bridgestone Turanzas EL400 195/55/16 Tires
    (16) OEM Lugnuts

    *Each individual wheel will come washed and wrapped in a big plastic bag*

    Rims condition: LIKE-NEW. There's only one tiny 0.5-1.0" mark at the edge of one rim, honestly hardly noticeable. Everything else is in immaculate condition.

    Tires condition: LIKE-NEW. Driven for less than 5,000 miles (with proper alignment from an 07 Prius T.E.). No nails, no marks, no cuts. There's probably some 40,000-45,000 miles left on the thread (depending on your driving style).

    Attention 06+ Owners: Tire Pressure Monitoring Sensors (TPMS) not included. America's Tire Co. (www.tires.com) will transfer them from your existing rims for less than $40 (or sometimes for free). Of course you could use them without the sensors, but your "tire pressure" light may light up though you could choose to ignore the light.

    Price comparison: Sigmaautomotive.com sells them the set for $1549.00 plus s&h. Tires alone cost over $100 a piece (without installation) from tirerack.com. Rims alone cost over $175 a piece from the dealership. You figure out the math.

    LOCAL pick up in the Los Angeles / Orange County area. Cash transaction only.

    $550 FIRM. Sorry, not a penny less, but will accept higher bids if you really want them!

    Didn't you just happily get this set?

    What's the weight per wheel?

    Can you please post a photo of the mark? Is it on the rim or the cover?

    Hi there,

    You're right! I just acquired them but I have brand new tires on my 15" stockies (Michelin Pilot Exalto A/S) so hopefully I'm going use my stocks for some 50,000 miles.

    I have not weighted the wheels yet, but I do assume two things: 1) Toyota has probably used the lightest 16" alloy wheels that remained cost effective 2) Most aftermarket 16" wheels (with the exception of Rotas and others) will not be as light and/or cost $550.

    Interested or just poking me? :D

    Greetings! How is the rear bumper applique holding up to the socal weather?

    I will post a picture by 10am on Thursday. The scratch is at the edge of the cover, not on the rim.

    As requested...

    It's very very very tiny. Hard to spot even upclose.

    Darned. That will teach me to get busy at work and stay off the boards for a couple of days.
