Default FS: track wheels, turbo rear valance and seats

I am starting to clear out my garage of some items that I was going to keep, but I have had more expenses in the past few months than I anticipated. If I don't start selling some of this stuff I wont have a car to drive next summer

The wheels are 17" simmons 3 piece wheels that were redone for track purposes as you can see by the color. They are in good shape, bu there are some small areas of curb rash that were not turned out of the rims. Fronts are 9", and the rears are 9.5". I don't know what the offsets are, but they fit a late 944 turbo. The only downside is that they will NOT clear big red brakes. asking $900 plus shipping

Also for sale are a pair of porsche script seats from a 944 S2. They are the dark navy blue color, and are in pretty nice shape. They could deal with a decent cleaning, and there is one area of cracked vinyl (pictured). $150+shipping

Lastly, I have a lower rear valance from an S2. You might be able to throw it on a white car without painting it, but it would look better if you spruced it up a little. One mounting hole is showing some signs of stress, but other than that its in great shape. $120 plus shipping.

I think those are my old wheels. If so, the fronts are 8". Fronts had 52mm offsets, rears had 55mm offsets.

If those weren't mine (before the orange paint), then disregard....

Are the seats actually blue, or are they just faded to blue from the sun and are supposed to be black?

haha, I wish they were actually black... if they were I probably could have used them. That being said, I think they could be dyed black without much trouble. They came out of an 89 944 S2, which I parted. The entire interior was blue, even the dash. In case anyone is curious I really don't have much of the blue stuff left, maybe the center console.

I think those are my old wheels. If so, the fronts are 8". Fronts had 52mm offsets, rears had 55mm offsets.
I bought these wheels from another lister in Columbus. I don't know if they were yours or not, but I am pretty sure that the widths are 9 & 9.5. When I first saw them they had 235s on the front and there was a noticable stretch to them.

I will buy rear valance if you ship it in slovenia.
I don't think that would be a problem, but I have no Idea what the cost would be. If you are willing to pay the shipping pm me your address and I will look into it.

I don't know... but if those are used to make "big blacks", then I think the answer is no. sorry for not being more helpful.

They were mine before he bought them. Yup, you're correct. Just checked my binder, they are 9 & 9.5. Fronts are et56, rear are et60. Too damn many wheels to keep track of.

Those are awesome wheels, good luck w/ the sale.

Sale pending shipping quote on the seats...

Lemming, the wheels are quite light, I will throw them on the scale tonight to ballpark the shipping you asked for.

Thanks vic... pictures make me wish I could keep them. I'll have orange wheels to **** kyle off again some day.
Jason, if you want to get together some time that would be great. Let me know what your schedule looks like.

I looked into shipping today, and it looks like I can ship the wheels almost anywhere US for $100. Maybe a little more for the west coast. Each wheel weighs about 23lbs.

The seats are considerably more... Like $250 for the pair. That hurts a little, but if I have to, Ill dye them black and keep them.
