Default 5th gen EX alloys

Do you think $350 is a fair price for a set of these rims w/brand new khumo tires?

That really depends on the tire itself, but even crappy tires (say $60 a piece) will cost you a total of $240 new, and to tack on some rims...

Sounds like a good deal.

seems ok, as long as the wheels and tires are like brand new. I'll sell you my Enkei's for $450... but they need some tires. The rims are almost brand new.

they are khumo 712's, only like 30-50 miles on them. The rims aren't brand new, they are off a 94-95 EX Accord but they haven't been curbed, no major scratches and include all the center caps. I'm gonna paint em anyway so they will be sanded down to get rid of most of the imperfections from the normal wear and tear, Im gonna paint em duplicolor graphite grey metallic:naughty:

Honda charges about $180 per rim for the 94-95 EX alloys. I am getting a set of them in good condition w/brand new Khumo 712 tires(only 30-50 miles on them) for $350. To the best of my knowledge, the tires alone cost about $35-$45ea, which is $140-$180 just for tires. I think its a good deal, besides, why would I pay $450 for just rims when I could spend $100 less and get rims and tires?

just a suggestion... thought maybe youd be interested in 17's instead of 15's...

If you can find me some 17's w/brand new tires for $350, I'd be all over em. Yeah, I hope to one day have the bling for my Accord, but that won't be until I get a place with a garage and have the alarm installed that will protect my investment. Im not doing too much to it right now and I have always wanted some black EX rims on my bordeaux red pearl accord, the rims are hard to come by and so is money for me to buy them so now an opprotunity has come up for me to get some and the price is right so im all for it. I plan on painting the rims either black or graphite grey and lowering it w/kyb gr-2 shocks and neuspeed sport springs for now. whatcha think?
