So i found a guy selling these 18" MRR GT-1 Black w/Mach Lip Staggered (Set of Four) for 1,600. 18" and wrapped in falken fk452 tires. This is including shipment to my door. After negotiating, i could probably get them for 1,500 or a little lower. Do you think...

Those are good tires. More then likely(depends on width) those tires are worth 800 - 1200k alone.

Time for another kindergarten lesson since you didn't learn from the last one...

With winter approaching and you having only recently mentioned how you're low on funds you are seriously considering buying a new wheelset sporting summer rubber instead of looking for some good all-season or winter tires.

no no, i made sure the guy will still have these in three months after winter is over ( he sells many of these rims). I decided to let lily hibernate during the winter and will just use my mom's camry in the snow. I have to earn that money first anyway!

Ah cool cool. In that case Falken FK's are a good tire choice when you don't have to deal with old man winter. I'm not a fan of the wheel - but its just because I'm a fan of the Volk TE37 fat spoke "squid coming out of a barrel" look.

Better still if the seller is going to have them for a while and you can pay them down and not have to swallow the whole purchase price in one gulp.

of course he is going to tell you he will have them - its called business.

I don't think they will go very well with a Z...
