Default WTB: 18" racing wheels

Looking for extra Christmas money?

I'm looking to buy a set of 4 LIGHT WEIGHT 18" racing wheels with a 5x100 bolt pattern. If they don't weigh less than 20 lbs. each, then I'm not interested. The seller must provide pictures. The seller must be willing to ship or work with me on getting them to Omaha, Nebraska. I'll pay in full via Paypal, as soon as a deal is agreed on. If I offer you a price, it includes shipping, unless I say otherwise.

Price:
I'm looking for a good deal, I'm very patient, and I'm not in any hurry. I'll offer you a price based on what your wheels are worth to me. Any offer I make is open to negotiation. Please don't be offended if you think my offer is too low, and please don't spam my thread if you don't like it. That being said, I'm not looking to spend more than about $1,200 on wheels alone, or $1,500 on wheel/tire combos, not icluding shipping. If you're including lugnuts, centercaps, etc... make sure you let me know and I'll take that into consideration.

Sizing:
18 x 8, offset range of +38 to +48
18 x 8.5, offset range of +40 to +45
I'll consider a staggered fitment with a wider rear, as long as the front's match those sizes. If the offset is just a hair off, I'll consider it. If the wheels came with centering rings, then I expect those to be included.

Brands:
I'm looking for the real thing here. Ray's/Volk/Gram/Ings, Work, Wedsport, OZ Racing's HLT wheels, 5Zigen, Racing Hart, etc... Just do me a favor and check the weight on them before you offer them. I do not want Enkei's.

Style:
I'm not that picky, but I would prefer something in a dark color - some variation of black or dark grey. I don't want anything gold, bright bronze, or white. I don't care about polished lips or colored stripes. Ideally, I'd like something in a 7-spoke design, but I'll consider just about anything that's the right size and weight.

Tires:
If you are offering wheels with tires, let me know. I may be willing to pay more for a package deal. If there are any dealers looking at this - I plan on running 235/35 summer performance tires.

Condition:
Minor nicks, scratches and curb rash is ok, but it will be reflected in the price I offer you. I do not want any wheels that have ever been bent, broken, cracked, repaired, etc... Make sure you include pictures of the damage.

If you've gotten through all that and you still think you may have something I want, then please post a reply with pictures, and give me some info about what you've got. I'll PM you in a few days to let you know what I think. If you post a reply please include ALL of the following information:

manufacturer
model
size
offset
weight
condition
pictures, including closeups of damage
your location
list anything that's included (lugs, caps, centering rings, etc...)

If applicable:
tire manufacturer
tire model
tire size
tire treadwear
tire age

Thanks for reading all of this!

Not a big deal. If it wasn't you, it would've been someone else. That's why I didn't mention it.

I may have a purchase pending already anyways.
