:( Must give them up.
These have been sitting in my closet like little ninjas - I wanted to keep them on the RS-T forever because the curves flow perfectly with the 2g curves, but unfortunately they only have 1mm of space around the wilwood 6 piston calipers. I felt unsafe with that little clearance, so I had to get different wheels. I'm the original owner. They have been powder coated black by a local shop and have a little sparkle in them (looks absolutely crazy at night or when they spin and the sun hits em.) Center caps are included and are powdercoated red(you can paint them something else easily), They have yokohama avid H4s on them and balanced, 2 are practically brand new and the other 2 have a few more miles but, I'd still say 90-95% of tread left. Avid H4s are superquiet, handle great, and have 60,000 mile lifespan. One tire needed a plug from a nail, so it's been repaired.

They look great on a black 2g. They are a discontinued design so you don't see them anymore. I remember the ford probe guys would search everywhere for them and spend $$$ to get old ones.
For tires and wheels I'm looking for $999 + shipping, or pick them up at that my place in socal. I think they are worth it, but PM offers.
One wheel requires more balancing weights than the others, so the guy at the tire center told me to put that one on the back. I didn't run the balancing machine nor do I have one at home, ha, so I can't tell you what the deal is, but I always have that wheel on the back and I don't feel any shimmy when I drive (and I drive fast.)
THESE ARE THE MOST PERFECT WHEELS FOR A 2G IMO - only if you ignore superlight wheels of course. I'm sure the OGs on the board remember these 2gnt: '99 RS-T, killed by a toyota, pending rebuild...
