MAE by Trafficstar 18x10 ET5 18x11.5 ET2 5x114.3

hey all,
i have a set of MAE Japan's in 18x10 ET5 (these are 4/5x114.3) and 18x11.5 ET2 (these are 5x114.3, because the lug holes were welded and the pad was shaved down from ET-13). the condition is kinda ratty -- the clearcoat is peeling on the faces. chemical strip them and hit em' up with some Wurth silver paint, and they'll look super sexy.

lip size (this is from memory) was like 4" front and almost 5.5" rear.

PERFECT Y33 FITMENT with a fender roll and some camber.

i'd like $1500 for these (and that's pretty firm). they have a set of nankang ns-2's in 225/40/18 and 255/35/18 on them right now with fairly good tread depth (the rears are going to need a flip in 5,000 miles, but the other side is pristine) -- add $200 if you want them on, otherwise i'm keeping them.

i'm down to ship, but you're going to pay for shipping, obviously.

i'm in arcadia, ca, but i work in hollywood (if you'd like to pick up).

get at me!

i'm going to edit this post with better photos tonight, but here are a few first:

hi,

I was curious if you could quote me shipping charge for zip 98281?

just a quick estimate if possible, do not want to trouble you much.

Thank you.

surprisingly enough, fedex ground is quoting me right about $70 insured, and it'll be there in 3 days. i'll have to add the cost of packaging them for shipment -- maybe $20 a box (total of 2 boxes), so possibly $110-120 for shipping.

Yea, I've shipped through fedex and they're pretty cheap
And it shouldn't cost $20 a box. Jus cut up a box, cover the lip/face and tape the mofo easy as pie

got it. need to see how many old boxes i can dig up, though...

GLWS!!!

Jus got to any wheel dealer shop, they should have the round disk cut outs already or at least bokes
 
or you can got to like a target early in the morning and ask for some.
 
Shouldn't cost you a dime

buy these naoossss

How much without tires picked up? I want to see these in person.. Any damages? U know what mods I would need to fit these on a LS400? It's shaved in the rear n rolled a little up front.. Do I need a pull if it's tucking?

swing by anytime after 7:30 -- they're still on the car. if you'd like, come by, check them out, and if you like 'em, i'll have the tires dismounted the next morning.

price is $1500 no tires, picked up.

Thank you for the quick quote..

just wondering though...how much would it cost to refinish them there?

Because I am for sure that if I got it done here, it would cost way more, versus in the USA. 

Oh, are they true 2 piece or 3?

Thank you very much.

did you get the Vienna Courage's???  wish I had the cake to pick these up...I have some ideas on refinishing them  G/L

they're 3pc welded, so they're effectively 2pc. depending on the finish, i think it'll cost anywhere from 150-250 per wheel to get these refinished. there are a few shops out here that can do it, and if you're interested, i can help you get that done before i ship them out.
