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.
