Hope this is ok, I didn't see rules against "testing the waters". . .

Anyways, I purchased new tires for the verts and unfortunately I'm left desiring more and am considering buying new wheels. I have a set in mind and if there is interest in these, that will be my motivation. If interested I can trailer these to DGRR. PM me for more details.

These are complete with center caps

Also, I would rather not separate the wheels/tires. At this point they're a matched set and go together but I'm open to offers so let me know what you are thinking.

Really? You spent some time on these, never seen another set like them. Sexy.

Forgive my ignorance... are these 4 bolt/lug or 5? (I wouldn't mind picking them up for my Miata if they're a 4-bolt pattern.)

I contacted where I bought tires and asked about a different manufacturer that makes the size I originally requested. They are available so it looks like I'm appeased for the time being and will roll with these as well as hold off on buying new wheels for a little longer.

Keep with them if you can...

I understand that option for tires are getting scarce nowadays...

BBS wheels have been making a comeback the past several years, which vintage versions of BBS wheels commanding stupid prices!
We're talking $2,000 - $3,000 for a set of 15" wheels!
For some reason, the Honda crowd goes bonkers over them, and they are paying premium prices for their 4x100 bolt pattern - which is the same as older BMW fitment.

The only reason to change wheels is because you want bigger brakes which necessitates going up in diameter...

If I could get away with 15's, I'd rock those wheels!
Unfortunately, my big brakes need at least 17's! :(
