3+1 White WedsSport TC-005 for Sale

I own a set of these wheels. One was gouged in an accident, and I replaced them all. This model is now "out of stock" everywhere, and discontinued by WedsSport.

If anyone needs replacements or spares -- drop me a line -- and we can work a deal for any or all of them (even the gouged one). I got a good deal on them, and will make a good deal in return. Three of them are still are mounted with 205/45ZR-17 Michelin Pilot Exalto PE2 XL, that are 1-year old and have been driven 8,000 miles. Still perfect tires -- albeit 'used'. This is the same tire I bought all around on the new rims (which BTW are GramLights).

All four of of the WedsSports are straight and true, the gouge is cosmetic...but BMW/Mini does not warrant 'damaged' or 'repaired' wheels, and I had my Mini fixed at the dealer.


I think you will find this to be the best deal in town for Mini-anything, if you need 'em! Alex over at Tire Rack is a great guy -- I've bought "all of these" from him! Get anything "new" from him!

Cheers,
George

Ballpark price for all 4? Assuming the damaged one is still in reasonable condition.

Three "undamaged' wheels -- one or all 3 -- $135 each + shipping. (I pd $259, list price was >$300). Fourth wheel "no charge with the other three if all three are purchased" -- damage photos at:
https://www.northamericanmotoring.co...0&ppuser=43544


Tires - Two at 60% tread, One at 40% tread - still mounted and balanced - $100 add'l, plus shipping, if you buy all three good rims. (New list price = $124 ea). Once I unmount them, I would use them as my own spares rather than sell them.

Whole package = $505, plus shipping. That's 3 pristine wheels + 3 used tires + 1 damaged wheel + 1 unrepairable tire. 1 year old.

Accident/Damage Description:
Car was parked, someone hit the front end on the left-front wheel. Tire leaked and went flat night before new set arrived, and I drove on it for 1 mile rather than use repair kit, since I had replacement on way anyhow.

FYI, I paid $500 for a set of 4 wheels (one with curb rash)
w/ 215/40R17 Nokia Hakka's (3/4 and 1/2 tread life left)

Not flaming... just a data point if you have issues trying to sell...

17x7
~14-15# ea
+42 (this offset is my recollection -- i don't have acess to my correspondence about that last year at this moment).
The offset reduces result in a 0.25" or so wider track and reduces understeer quite a bit.
Cheers,
George
