Non dimpled GTA wheels color doesnt matter

Fronts or rears doesnt matter. Color doesnt matter. I dont even care if they have hard curb hits as long as the mesh part of the wheel is not banged up. Im not looking for mint wheels here.

I have a complete set of the harder to find non dimpled GTA wheels I bought from ebay that were not as they were described so I wont be using them. They do have some curb rash and one does have some marks where the center cap goes that look like the guy slipped with a hammer while trying to remove a wheel lock but nothing major. I am just looking to get some of my money back so I would like to get $290.00 for all four shipped to you if you are in the continental U.S. so let me know if your interested before I list them for sale when I get back from vacation.

I will send you pictures and give you first dibs if your interested and I hear back from you before Wednesday 5/21.

Send me pics. brianbissonette@msn.com More than likely ill take them as long as the center castings are ok. If one has a bad center its still a good deal. Curbing or scratches are not a problem.

I have a nice pair of undamaged rears for $180 shipped firm. Tires are already off and will not include center caps.

Using T-Spools pics. Look at the area where the spokes join the outer shell. The shell would be the polished outer part. The flat area is what we are looking at. If there was a divit cast into the wheel than that is what everyone calls a dimple. Here's a pic of a dimpled wheel I pulled off the internet. There is myth amongst Firebird guys that the non-dimpled wheels have a stronger center section and therefore are more desired for racing or something like that.

Thats a funny myth. They are not proven stronger. Ive never seen one broke unless the owner hit a curb going 60+mph. Just a different casting than the others. Thats all. Im glad im not a Firebird owner. It seems like once you own one your IQ drops about 20 points. That is unless its a 1989 TTA .

The offsets front and rear are way different than an f-body wheel too. The GNX wheels look much better on a TR than a set of f-body fronts imo.
