Message I have up for sale the set of wheels on my Q45. Reason im selling is because I just got a new set of wheels (think forged and light) and Im ready to move these out of my garage. Id really like to keep them as they are classic wheels and HARD to find..... Ive only seen a few sets of ebay turn up in the last year...


Heres the details...

5x114.3
Fronts are 17x8.5
Rears are 18x8.5

37mm offset all around... CLEARS Z32 CALIPERS

They fit PERFECT on the Q45.. They fill the fender very nicely and dont stick in or out all... They really fit like they were meant to be on the car from the factory.... They are also hubcentric . Dont be fooled, these are very strong wheels and can take anything the Q can handle... They still balance out very nicely...

Included tires are:

Sumitomo HTR-Z 245-45-17 95W.. With a LOT of tread left on em. I like these tires a lot, they are quiet and theyre holding up great to my driving style...

Kumho Ecsta 712 245-40-18 93W. These are worn down, you could drive on em (i was planning on driving on them through the duration of the summer) but theyll need replacing... Id run 255-40-18s on the rear personally.

Moving onward, they do have a little bit of cosmetic issues. By and large its not that big of a deal... They have a little bit of curb rash, and the paint on the center caps is starting to come off.. IT hasnt got any worse since i bought the wheels... Truth be told, the wheels would look great if the centercaps were repainted. You could make these wheels look REALLY good with a simple repaint. I called a few body shops around my area and they all wanted about $50/wheel to repaint them... So for an extra 150 you have a new looking set of wheels that fit perfectly on the Q...

You may question the staggered setup, and I think it makes more sense than its given credit for. You can run a 255-45-17 in the front which has like 98 load rating and still maintains the stock load rating... Plus I tihnk they look really great on the Q.. not flashy "bling bling" but they were meant for the Q.....

$450 or best offer gets you this set of wheels

Buyer plays shipping, I go through DHL so it wont be more than $100 to ship the set...

If your close enough to do local pickup, id be happy to meet you halfway...
