Wheels
So I bought these RG5 wheels straight from the Champion Motorsports headquarters at Pompano Beach, FL last summer. I did not even get to put the wheels to use though only until a few months ago, when I finally found proper tires. The wheels now are in perfect shape, literally. There are absolutely no scratches, bends, dings, chips, curb rashes, or any other defects you can possibly think of. I had the the inner barrels professionally powder coated in a gloss finish to really make those deep lips pop and give a nice color contrast. The powder coating is also extremely durable and much more protective than paint, so that is another plus to having this finish. The wheels did not come with center caps though when I bought them.
rears are 19x11.5 offset ET 44 (20.63lb), fronts are 19x8.5 offset ET 53 (19.13lb). NO TPMS
For those who would be getting these for a 996 or 997 wide body: these are really a great fit with said offsets. They are aggressive, fitting almost perfectly flush with the body work in both the front and rear.
For those who would be getting these for a 996 or 997 narrow body: I assume that these wheels would be extremely aggressive. They would probably be either flush or even a tiny bit protruding as compared to the body work. I cannot say for sure though.

Tires
The tires that are mounted on Toyo T1R (front: 235/35/19, rear:315/25/19). As many of you members may know, finding tires in these two specific sizes have been close to impossible in the last few months. As a result, I had to wait a few months just to get my hands on one full set. These tires have been used for less than 2000 miles and have plenty of tread on them. I can get exact measurements later on if someone inquires. The tires have no damage to them whatsoever. These tires are an ideal fit for those putting these on the 996tt. I personally have one, and it was a perfect fit. No rubbing of any kind and most importantly, the radial differences between the front and rear satisfy the viscous coupling differential. These tires are absolutely fine for all other 996 and 997 models too.

For both the wheels and mounted tires, I am asking $5500 OBO. Quickly taken pics are found below, and I can obviously provide more detailed ones upon request. For any additional questions, please email me at ericb56@gmail.com
-Thanks and have a great day all!
