17x9 5x108 Cobra R replica wheels

These are 17x9 Cobra R replicas (marked with a +45 backspacing, but I'm not positive) with a 5x4.25 bolt circle. I used these on my Thunderbird for years, and it shows. They're not in the best cosmetic shape, with the kind of wear you'd expect from a decade of use. Most have paint peeling from the center bore. The paint has stains in places, and there are scratches and rock chips here and there. Oddly, on my car, two need hub centric rings, and two don't (rings not included with wheels).

Need some cheap 17x9s for a T-Bird, Mark VIII, Taurus, etc.? Here you go. Repaint them and they'll be just fine. I'm asking $200, but feel free to make offers. For pickup in Chattanooga, TN, but I'm open to shipping them if that's what you want to do.

I'm betting shipping would kill this awesome price. 

UPS estimates $28/wheel to Columbia, SC (saw your location in your profile...hope that's not too creepy or anything). If it were me, I probably wouldn't want to pay that on a $50 wheel.

That said, I'm going to be doing a T-Bird club driving tour through Augusta, GA in mid-May. If you'd be willing to meet me there, I'm willing to take them that far.

Not creepy at all, Will! 

This sounds like a plan! I'll shoot you a PM. These would look ace on the Stincoln smelLS!!

Wish those would fit on my RS, they would look the tits.

Sounds good.

I didn't expect there to be much interest in 5x108 stuff here, but I also have a pair of 17x8 Voxx Misano wheels for $300 obo if you like those better (the tires are garbage).

And I have several 17x5" LS aluminum spares if you're looking for drag skinnies.

I created an account just to purchase these if they are still for sale. Can't send a message for a couple days privately, can you email me at thejin27@gmail.com?
