Default OLD JDM WHEELS: Rally Sparco Gravels 16x7 4x100 black/polished. PICs $250

Ok, here is the deal.

I have these wheels, in decent shape, without tires, for $250 shipped OBO

They include centercaps. I'm not sure on the offset but I'm gonna try and figure it out. there is a small stamp on the back that has the number 40, but I don't know if that means the offset or not. These have been discontinued for many years, I think they were made from 92-94 or so. There is hardly any information on them anywhere on the internet

Here is the problem though. one of them has a small crack. It needs to be repaired. It is NOT bent in any way, just a crack. The previous owner tried to repair it in a ghetto way (shitty arc weld) and it never worked. It just needs to be ground down a bit, and then rewelded, and then ground down smooth again. that is all. If noone buys them I will have my welder fix them and up the price to $375 shipped. If you would like me to have it fixed for you, I can do that, and the price will be $375 shipped.

They have minor scrapes and scuffs but no curbage. If you have the time these could be restored to be some badass wheels, I just don't have the time.

PM me with any offers, need to clean these out of the garage.

If you don't have the means to repair these there are many shops online that you can ship them to and have them fixed and rebalanced.

www.wheelcollision.com is one of those shops... quotes are $35 to $75 to fix one of these wheels, and they can restore them to orginal finish also... so you could send them all four and for a couple hundred... or you could just send the one and for less than $75 have it fixed and ready to go

ok here are the pictures
These pics are HUGE and detailed so the big ones I will just link instead of actually posting in the thread.
You will get the wheels exactly as pictured, 4 wheels, 3 with tires. all tires are bad and not usable.

here is the third wheel

and the fourth

Okay now for the crack pictures. I sanded down the area on the inside and outside of the wheel to make sure that the crack wasn't larger and didn't extend underneath the paint. As you can see the crack is tiny. It has been welded shut before. The air leaks out right at the edge, and if you look closely you can see the small hairline crack.

Here is an even closer shot. My camera doesn't have macro so this is the best I could do

her is another angle from the side, the crack is very visable in this picture

and a close up of the center caps, they were anodized black I think from the factory, the anodization is faded now and the red sticker on the sparco is peeled off all of them except that one.

Thats everything. Those who were intersted get back to me. After removing this tire and sanding down I am confident this is an easy fix, and if these aren't sold within the week I'll be taking it up myself to fix them.

thanks,
Brady

I will not hold anything, but I will keep you in mind. Just let me know as soon as possible.
