Alright guys, I have decided I'm not happy with my wheels at all. I'm going to go with something else next spring when I get the car back out, so I might as well get rid of these now.
Here are the details on the wheels
Wheel: HP Design EVO 18x8 / +40mm Offset / 2.25" polished lip Tires: 235/40/18 Nankang NS-II
The wheels have been on and off the car several times since I got them and the tires only have maybe 1500 miles on them.
But, here is the scoop:
These tires are wide as hell. The rims are wide as hell and have a higher offset than stock. I am lowered approx 2" and they rub. I had to cut out part of the rear fender well to get them to stop rubbing on every bump, but they still do going through dips at an angle.
When I first got the rims I took a road trip to Denver, CO. 600 miles total. The tires were rubbing all the way down there on the interstate and this was before I cut out the fender wells, so the tires rubbed on the inside lip and tore up a little bit of the tread on the rear tires. I was also so frustrated with having to pull over 3 times to raise my suspension that the last time I raised it, I rolled the right rear tire to my cousin, and he dropped the rim on it's front face, it has maybe a dozen chips on that lip.
So here is the deal. That rim has some chips in the outer lip. Both rear tires have a cut in the tread. It is about a dime's width and right on the outer edge of the tire. (pictures to follow) There will be no performance lost out of these tires, there is still 234mm of tread left. All 3 other rims are in perfect condition.
Here is what I'm willing to do. I bought the rims w/ wider tires, mount, balance, chrome valve stems, etc, for $1150 and the center caps for $70. Total price, $1220. The rims were $150 each and I'll take that right off the top. I'll take another $170 off for the damage to the two rear tires.
These rims will work perfectly on your car if you have either 1) Stock suspension ride height, or 2) Very stiff lowering suspension. My Apex'i WS Coilovers are a very soft suspension and allow too much play.
Selling Price: $900 and I'll split shipping costs with you.
Here is a picture of what they look like.

Here is the chipped rim, you can see it on the left hand side.

Here is what the 2 rear tires look like. That is about a dimes width cut in the tread, and it does not go all the way down to the tire, it goes maybe 1/8" down the tread.

Let me know if you are interested, or have any questions. I check the board about once an hour throughout the day, and a couple times at night.

Here are some more good pictures to show off the lip, and give you an idea of the stance.
