FS local, 18x8 Superleggeras.
The goods:
18x8 OZ Superleggeras, ET51. Dark Silver color
225/40/18 Falken Ziex-512's, M&S-rated. Not as grippy as UHP summer rubber, but they are super quiet and will last forever. Less than 2000 miles on the tires.
I have both styles of OEM center caps, the color-matched with red text, and the polished with black text (on in the pics)
These are super-light, at 17.6 pounds for an 18x8, with a very light tire as well.
Now, the only crappy part. One wheel has a minor kerb, about 2mm wide and about 2 inches long. All of them have some corrosion of the finish on the sides of the spokes; I think the previous owner used some evil wheel cleaner or something. Faces of the spokes, hub, and outer rim look perfect.
You could paint or powdercoat them, or do what I do and put the two worst wheels on the front and cover them with brake dust within a week and never notice
Tires are almost new, and retail for $500+. Rims I bought used, so I'll eat a good chunk of change and let them go for $1000, which is a steal for superlight wide 18's. I have matching silver (not chrome) Mutekis new in the package that I can toss in for another $30 or so.
Pics of the rims on my car, they're currently stacked in the corner of my garage.
I accept cash, check, CC through paypal, rubles, yen, rupees, pounds sterling, and, in some cases, pencil shavings. I'd prefer money, but if you want to trade wheels, make a convincing argument (and, given my propensities, don't try to sell me back a set of wheels I've already had on the car
)

New in the box, never been mounted, retailed for ~1800, looking for 1200.
