Part of it is prob b/c he doesn't even know what the fukc he's selling.

a.) There's no such thing as Leage WRK. I did some digging, and it's a League WKR-1.

b.) General Exclaim UHP's don't even come in 245/35/18. They do come in 275/35/18, but based on all the other wrong info., who knows what he really has?

c.) Discount Tire is the only place I've seen selling these wheels, and the closest size listed is 18x8 +40. So not sure if they're really 18x9 +30 as stated.

d.) My favorite part is that in his CL listings he claimed they're JDM, but that's B.S. League is a Taiwanese knockoff wheel company.

e.) Lastly, price. A set of those tires is like $550. The wheels are like $600 through Discount Tire. So, brand new this setup is about $1150. In his CL listings, I remember seeing them listed for as high as $2000 at one point.

All in all, big-time FAIL.

Should post a CL Ad so people don't get tricked into buying "JDM" wheels.

But yeah, I'd buy a set of rotas then those.
