FS: 17" 6 spoke hyperblack

$200 for the set (firm) cash, MO, or cashier's check
RS Racing F1 (likely a stencil name) purchased 3+ years ago for $900+ from one of those online florida wheel dealers
6 spokes, hyperblack (dark silverish)
significant finish distress on the lip - needs to be refinished
1 small damage mark on 1 spoke - otherwise the spokes are still very nice
light for 17 inchers!
There are tires mounted but they are quite used, and one has been treated with fix-a-flat (dismount warning).
They are located in suburban Columbus Ohio, and must either be picked up here, or I will meet you within 100 miles of Columbus for a fee of $1 per mile (if you live 100 miles from my home, it's $100 to deliver them to you).
Here are some pictures:

Looks like typical salt damage getting under the clear coat.

I don't know for sure. They were starting to show signs after a couple of winters, so I took them off and went to 15s for my long daily commute. I stored them, and when I pulled them out, the lips were all herpetic like that.

Hence the uber low price.

Goodness! I didn't realize road salt would do that much damage to rims.

I bet you nearly had a heart attack when you pulled 'em out of storage!

Any idea (or suggestions on how I can found out) what's the largest non-RF tire that can be put on those rims? I'd love to buy those rims, but I want to have as much sidewall as possible and not have to worry about shaving any plastic or mushrooming of the tower struts.

They are experts with MINIs and have the answers.

I was going to refinish them myself so it wasn't really a big deal. Then I sold my MINI, so I don't have anything to put them on!

I do not know the offset, but I do know that it is within the suggested tolerances. You can see the way they fill the arches in the previous pictures on this thread. I never had any rubbing at all (stock sport suspension), so perhaps that helps. Sorry I don'y know more.

Any idea how to refinish these or what it would cost to have done?

I don't know about refinishing. They don't need total refinishing, so I was going to do it myself with wheel paint from a specialty manufacturer. I had planned to treat the damage areas with a rust remover/inhibitor, but was also going to ask for advice first.
