Why do you think they're stolen. It would be sad to pass on a deal only to find out it was legit.

since you think they're stolen i'm guessing you're not buying it from a vendor. In which case, if they are stolen and you ever get caught you will lose your wheels and your money.

So you just admitted to a crime on a public forum.

would it help all the niñas in the forum if i had left out that i 'think' they are stolen?? the only reason i think they are stolen is cuz i live in Miami, and 9 out of 10 things you buy off the street ARE hot.

sheesh, i said i THINK, who knows where they are from, but they are new in box, so theyre obviously not from someone elses car. stop juimping to conclusions guys.

Lots of 'Custom performance' shops go belly up in Miami, for all we know the wheels could be from one of these shops.

They're just cheap ADR wheels, no big deal. $800 is probably close to retail.

What size, 19"?

That's reasonable I would think for ADR wheels.

I've had my rims stolen before.. they were on my car while it was stolen. Needless to say, I was VERY pissed! I for one would NEVER buy something that I thought was stolen.

Please don't...

ive never bought rims for any of my cars before, so i just excited for short periods of time when i find a deal.

ive got my heart set on some gold wheels with polished/chrome lip for my PPW Z, so ill just stick to that dream.

these are my dream wheels: so expensive though...
