I'll sell you mine for $2000. That's what it'll take for me to let them go.

Why is everyone trying to buy JUST rims. Won't the whole wheel work better?
I don't get it.

Seriously guy, you've started EIGHTthreads in the last 6 months asking for the same wheels and FIVE threads in the last 3 weeks!!!!!
Why don't you get a clue and listen to what EVERYONE here is telling you.
Speedstar wheels rarely come up for sale.
You have to get them custom made by one of the custom wheel guys for the STOCK Mark VIII bolt pattern
OR
You can hubswap and buy wheels that are readily available with the MUSTANG bolt pattern
JUST HUBSWAP
What happens if you thrash or curb a 5x108 saleen bolt pattern wheel...and you CANT GET ANOTHER ONE? You are BEAT, thats what!!
They rarely come up for sale used, I looked for about a year then gave up and hubswapped. Even when they are made new they are usually only LIMITED PRODUCTION RUNS, first come first serve.
You can run the 05+ mustang offset if you hubswap!!
TONS of mustang wheels are READILY available and MUCH cheaper, usually cheap enough to justify the COST of the hubswap.
You can get WHITE, SILVER, CHROME, BLACK CHROME speedstars.
You can get 20" speedstars if you want!!!!
You can run big brake kits!
You can replace a wheel EASILY IF DAMAGED!!
YOU CAN RUN STAGGERED 18X10 out back which they DONT MAKE in the Mark VIII pattern!!!
and so much more!

Lol i had to break balls, we all told him this a few weeks ago.
Not saying you cant find them used in 5x108 (i couldnt even find them used in stang pattern) ...but it can be quite the challenge and what happens if a rim gets damaged...
3 out of production 5x108 mark wheels = beat street
Hubswapping is a great choice the VIII shoulda came 5x4.5 factory anyway
quoted from your first post about wanting tires for the speedstars..so why are you still asking to buy these???

I think 95mark is just as guilty when it comes to wheel/tire threads. :N

I understood you, I meant him. The chit didn't make any sense. Makes it sound like he has the wheels but needs tires. Who the hell would sell their tires off their wheels for him, unless they were bald....
What's he even going to put them on anyway? Anyone even seen the said wheels he says he has? Anyway, I said I was going to get a set of Octi's and I got the bitches finally. I'll have them on maybe tomorrow or Monday.

If it wasn't insanely expensive to re chrome wheels..I'd say someone should have a set of octastars redone in black chrome..I think it would look awsome, your wheels combined with the lighting makes the chrome look darker, thats what made me think of it.

You might be on to something there. That pic does look like they have a light coat of that spray that Dupli Color makes. The more coats you spray on, the darker they will get. I'm just happy to finally have a complete set again.

I would be willing to bet my life on it that there isn't one Gen 1 in Alabama with Octi's on it. Unless my burned 94 is still setting somewhere, which I doubt. Scrap guys took two cars from my back yard. One 93 and my burned 94. They took the 93 first and if I had been smart, I would have took my Octi's off while it was out back and made them bring the wheels back from the 93 to put on the 94 and roll it out of my back yard. The city was complaining but it wasn't because it was eye sore, it was because we made them spend thousands and thousands, digging up the back yard because of drainage problems. They kinda had to work around the 93 so since we complained, they complained and threatened with fines so I had to get them gone. So, that's the story on that and I didn't get any info on the scrap guys. They asked if there was anything on the 93 that I wanted them to bring back and I told them I wanted the steering wheel and column because it is near mint. They brought that back to me so I assumed the same for my Octi's but I never seen them again. It even had a 98 trans with 66K and j-modded that I asked for. Gave it all away and I'm sure it was all melted down. Look in the background and you'll see the 93 covered up. It was black on black also.
These Octi's don't look clean here, well, really they weren't but if I had removed them and cleaned them up, they too were and easy 9 out of 10 and all perfect center caps were in my closet. Ok, I'm done bitchin. It was my fault.
