I have a friend that just got some HRE 545s about 2 months ago for his 50th anniversary vette. They are 17x9 in the front and 18x9.5 in the rear. He also had them chrome plated. He is going with 18's for the front and 19's with the rear and just offered his old ones to me for $2500, says he paid 5k for them. Heres the thing, I also wanted to go with 18's and 19's but almost seems to be to good of an offer to turn down. What would you all do?

for that price ide take the 17's and the 18's in a heartbeat

 

yeah you cant pass that up! sounds like an awesome deal to me

 

I would pass it up, 17s & 18s are too small, my next set will be 19s and 20s like Aircops

 

BUY'EM BUY'EM BUY'EM !!!
don't let that deal slip away!
you could run them for awhile and then turn around and sell them (for even more than you paid for them) once you have a little more cash saved up and then step up in sizes.

5k is about right for a set of 17/18's especially chrome plated!
$2500 is a great price!

 

here is a pic of a 99 electron blue WS6 with 18 inch HRE 547's on it!

How much are a set of 18 / 19 chrome HRE gonna cost?

 

If that includes good tires I would buy them and just resell them.

 

LOL Pt, why didn't I think of that?

BTW Nice Rodeo I noticed you changed your sig, did you just pick that up?

 

Damn, I think I'll get them and try to sell or trade for a pair of those 547's, damn those are sweet! Hopefully this will all work out. Thanks for the input!

 

Yup.. No more winters for the Z !

 

If you don't buy them you are BANNED FROM CAMAROZ28.COM!!!!!

 

Still curoius if anyone could give a rough estimate of the cost of those wheels in 18 /19.

 

Price depends on width as well, say 18x9.5 thats $1,258 a piece and 19x10.5 for the rear thats $1,507 a piece. So you are looking at roughly $5500 just for the wheels alone.
