So yesterday was a great day, left NOS's place with another bud of ours and going to another friend's place when we spotted a nice white Ford Bronco for sale (jacked up 6 inches with a nice off-road setup.
Nonetheless, we got to talking with the owner and he spotted the Focus and asks, "Nice hubcaps!" I looked at him and started to laugh and said "Yeah still haven't got to getting some summer rims and tires." So we talked and he said he had a set of American Racing rims up for sale since he sold his Honda Civic. They are 16" x 7" with Bridgestone Potezna's (205/45R16's).
The rims were one of the following (I wasn't sure and I couldn't get a good part number from them)

or

(note: the bolt pattern was 4 bolt universal, the picture here is just crappy)
The rims were in alright shape, a little bit of polishing and they would be fine. The tires didn't look half bad either. Looks like they had some good tread, probably 70-80%.
He's asking $800.00 for the set, rims and tires.
So what do yall think? This sound like a good deal?
I was thinking about offering maybe $500.00 for the set since the tire size is not exactly right (S/B 205/50R16's)
Edit: This is what the car may look like with the chrome rims.
