How much for the stock rims? What finish are they?

They're the 'matte' stock finish found on the 2005 edition tC's. I must warn you, they do have curb damage around the edges. I can post pictures of them too when I take pictures of the new rims.
If you're still interested, just send me a PM with what you think they're worth. I'm trying to recoup a little of the money I spent buying the new rims, but I'd rather get you pictures of the condition they're in before you decide how much you'd be willing to pay for them.

Ok, figured 2 days was long enough to make everyone wait for pics.
I'll get some better ones up in the Daytime, but pics are up in the first post.

I put some daytime pics up. Thanks, and I've been meaning to paint the calipers. I'm going red. :D
I also love the fact that O.Z. made the rims for the McLaren SLR. Mine aren't as nice (lol), but they look nice enough on the tC.

nice to see some pics..
i wanted to get Motegi Trak Lites for the longest of time until i found out that they were made in china.
now i am almost dead seat on a set of Ultralegarras, in 17x8 so i can fit a 245/40 tire.
i love the look of hte wheels, they look like stock and im gonna get them in black so they will look like painted stocks.

17x8? wrapped in 245/40/17?

Necro'd the thread to say: I'm still extremely happy with the rims. I've had a couple minor problems--ended up having one of them repaired because of a scratch in the paint. I guess that's a plus/minus of painted rims: they scratch easy, but they're also easily repairable.
Other than the paint, I've hit a couple potholes and a few of those steel plates pretty hard with zero damage or bending to the wheels.
ALaS: They are 17x8, and fit the stock tire size (I think 245/40/17, like you said.)
Been really happy with the tires as well, they're nice and grippy, and seem to be holding up well.
