5-spoke SVT Wheels: say $425 plus for whatever you want of this. Preference to local pickup or meet. Includes:
- 3 Brand New wheels. One has a small outer lip ding (shown in photo) from shipping, but bead is fine.
- 4 used wheels that look good, with curb rash on outer lip ranging from almost nothing to considerable. *BUT* when I had the tires mounted the balancer noted that 3 of the 4 were warped (I got screwed on a used purchase, hence the 3 new rims). The amount of warp isn't terrible, so I ran them anyway. I expect they could be repaired, but I didn't look into it. I spun them this morning and here are the details:
* one runs true, showing minor curb rash on outer lip about 1/5 way around
* two seem true on outer lip, but inside are out of round 2-3 and 3-4mm or so
* last one outer lip out about 2mm or so at one spot, and inner lip out 2-3 mm at one spot and 3-4mm at another
It's hard to establish how much they are out but these are my best guesses. Short story: 4 good wheels, 3 that need work.
- the 4 mounted tires (Falken Ziex ZE512 205/45ZR17) are basically shot (see photo) but could be used in a crunch, especially if remounted with inside to out.
Let me know if interested.

Any idea if the SVT centre caps from those rims will fit 17" Bullitt rims?

Nef, they are the push in ones for the 95, 98 and 2000 Cobra R wheels, and the Lightning wheels. They look to be the same as the Bullitt ones though.

Push in? Hrm, don't think they'll work then.
On the Bullitt wheels there's a retaining ring that's part of the centre cap and fromwhat I've read on the 'net you need to take the wheel off in order to remove and assemble the centre cap, unless I've been reading the wrong instructions...

Per some requests, I spun the used rims this morning and edited the original post accordingly.
Three of the 4 are indeed not true, out up to 3-4mm or so on the inside - not a lot, but you can definitely see it.
So there are 4 good rims. Take or leave the other 3.
