Default 16" Phone Dials collecting dust??

Anyone have a nice set of late-offset 16" PD's to get rid of? I am thinking I like the look of PD's better than the 968 rims on my car now, for some crazy reason.

Let me know, and thanks.

Andy

I actually sold my D90's first thing after I bought the car. Never really liked them. But thanks anyway.

Jonny-
I don't think trading is an option for me. Knowing my usual MO, I would get the phone dials, and decide I liked the 968 rims again in 6 months! And those are pretty hard to come by in decent shape.

What do your rims look like? I assume you dont wanna sell flat out?

Andy,
I've got my 16" PDs from my '87 951. They're not what I would call nice in that they need to be refinished. They've been sitting in the basement since I switched to 17" wheels. If you got them, you'd probably want to paint them, at the very least.

If you think you're interested, let me know and I'll grab the digital camera and snap some pics of them. I've been wanting to get these out of the way anyhow, so this would give me a reason to do so.

Let me know...thx.

I like my phone dials, they sure look better than the 7 x 15s that were on the car, but I think I like the 968 wheels better. I am not motivated to sell. Good Luck

i have the 16 in. phone dials with brand new tires on them and only the passenger front might need to be refinished if you wanted. the rest look great with only minor cosmetic blemishes. i snapped some pics for you so i p-med you again.

I have a set of chromed 16 inch phone dials on my 951 that I would sell for a decent offer. The tires are Yokohama's ES100's and have 4000 miles on them.

You can see them on the car here,

I know a little bit ago ilikemy944 was going to sell 16" PD. I am not sure if he got rid of them or not.
