FEELER: Enkie NT03+M's 18X9.5 + 27 (with spacers)
I've been throwing around the idea of trading my NT03+M's for a while to switch up the look. Well now I'm looking to do that again OR do a trade plus cash since I need as much cash as possible to save for my time off this month when my daughter is born.
Many of you may know my car. To my knowledge its the only AS IX with silver NT03+M's in the NW (posting a pic from my phone, see next post).
I purchased these NT03+M's from Top Speed Auto (vendor here on Evo M) in late March this year for $1350 shipped. They are 18X9.5 + 27 and have a nice slight concaved look to them. I also purchased Ichiba 10mm spacers for the fronts (required) as well from TSA.
The tires are a bit older and were purchased in November last year from Les Schwab for $950. Again those are Toyo Proxy T1R's (245/35/18's). The tires were ran on my old Volk CE28N's for approximately 1500 miles before my IX was rear ended and in the shop until January. In February I ran over something on I-5N which resulted in a bent rim and toasted front pass. side tire. In comes the NT03+M's and a new Toyo Proxy T1R.
Setup now has about 12K miles on it (mostly freeway commute to work). Rims are nearly mint with minor typical blemishes from use. Tires have at least 75% left and have been mounted/balanced/aligned since the day they've gone on.
CLIFFNOTES/WHAT YOU GET:
- 18X9.5 +27 Enkie NT03+M's
- Toyo Proxy T1R's (245/35/18)
- Ichiba 10mm spacers (x2) and extended studs (only required on front)
- About 12k miles on this setup
The wheel Im most interested in trading for are 18X9.5 +20 Rota Grids plus a small amount of cash ontop unless they are immaculate and have some baller *** tires on em' (hush peanut gallery, its just the look I like and TE37's are too spendy).
OR...
Cash plus trade for lesser value wheels.
I will however entertain all reasonable offers, however I must stress the following:
- No cheapo, no name, or butt ugly knock offs..........Rota and Linea Courses are the only exceptions
- Gotta be aggressive......Im talking very max of +27 or less offset (and no, dont tell me to just get spacers. Im tired of spacers).
- Gotta have some tires with some good life left on those rims. OR give me your wheels, let me put my tires on, then Ill give you the NT03's.
- I MUST MUST MUST have a set of wheels and tires in return, no exceptions unless you wanna pay an outright price for my wheels and tires and have the patience to let me shop around for some wheels and tires before I take these off. If this happened I'd pick up the Grids the day it happens, so in reality you're not waiting on my decision or shopping, just waiting on delivery. In that case, [b]$1300 + shipping or $1000 w/o tires + shipping[\b]
Pm for any questions or to inquire.
Please visit this thread for pics of the wheels:

UPDATE: Due to a small accident my wife had today, one wheel is slightly curbed. Shouldnt cost more than $150 to fix, therefor, wheels are now up for sale for $1000 shipped w/o tires.

This^^^ 10mm front spacers are required and included with these to clear the factory Brembo calipers. The rears do not need spacers but you can still install a set if you'd like.
You do not need to roll your fenders in the front nor rear for these unless you're slammed or go with a tire over 245. Im running 245/35/18's and have my rears rolled slightly (because Im pretty low) with no rubbing at all under any circumstance (hard cornering, bumps, etc...). If you go with a 255, then you will indefinitly need to roll the rears at least a bit to clear the tire wall.
