996/997/986/987 19" Avant Garde Ruger Classic (Fuchs knockoffs)

Category: Wheels & Tires
Price: $1400
Private or Vendor Listing: Private Listing
Part fits: Porsche 911 997 Non-Turbo, Porsche 911 996 Non-Turbo, Porsche Boxter/Cayman
Location (State): WA
Item Condition: Used
Shipping Information: Item can be shipped

Bought these wheels as an impulse buy. I then decided to go down another route. (Need the money to jump in on a motorcycle )
These wheels have <250 miles on them and have no scratches/scuffs/damage. They're in mint condition. Pictures say enough on how they look on the car - I don't need to elaborate Great for someone who wants a retro look or is going for the Sport Classic look.

http://avantgardewheels.com/ruger-classic.php

Wheels: 19 x 8.5 and 19 x 11
Bolt pattern: 5 x 130
Offsets work well on NB 997, 996
You'll need spacers if on 986/987


I do not have the boxes. These wheels go for ~1600 a set, I'm willing to let go of them for $1400 (buyer pays shipping). Black (colour) centre caps are included.
Tires not included. For the record, I have 235/35/19 on the fronts and 295/30/19 on the rears. They should work well with 305s as well - Tires that go on the Lobster Forks can be transferred with no problems.

Located in Seattle/Bellevue area in Washington. Local pickup/dropoff preferred.
Can ship at the buyer's expense as well.

Great looking wheels at a decent price. I would really like to buy a set of black center caps like yours with the Porsche logo. Where did you get yours??
Thx, Lyn

Thanks
Centre caps are available on ebay, and they aren't expensive. Mine came with the wheels (don't know the make), but I've bought stock (grey) centre caps before from ebay and they're fine for their purpose.

Could you verify what the front and rear offsets are on these wheels please?
Thx, Lyn

box987 is infamous around these parts
So how is this a deal? These are on ebay for $1599 with best offers free shipping and you want $1400 + shipping? Sounds like its better to buy new ones.

The fronts are 45mm offset, the rears are 56mm offset, apt for a narrow body. For a widebody car, 15mm spacers would bring down the rear offset to 41mm (close to 40mm which is the original offset of the WB version)

Open to reasonable offers..

I've been on both sides of the coin...as a buyer and seller I wanted the best price but it takes time and patience. Eventually, I ended up caving in depending on the demand.

Kudos for the buyer for entertaining a best offer. I was interested in these but I wanted it in gold instead of black and it would cost more to repaint it.

Thanks for the support Malexgcab. Yes, I've been on both sides as well, not just on 6speed. The price I quoted was only a starting point. Buying or selling, I have always worked toward a fair price in all my dealings.

PMs replied.

Unfortunately, I have had a change of heart and have decided to keep the wheels. I will update this thread if I decide to sell them - again, for a fair price It is never my intention to cheat someone.
