Thumbs up Have 17" wheels - Wanna Trade for 15"

Sold!!


I have been contemplating changing from the 17" Team 3 wheels that I currently have to 15" wheels and as it is almost time to purchase tires I thought I would ask on CC if anyone is interested in purchasing my wheels!!
Wheels are in VERY good condition and have never been damaged!!

Current Wheels:::

Front - 17" X 8" with 3.5" backspace
Rear - 17" X 10" with 4.5" backspace
Small Ford bolt pattern - 5 X 4.5" bolt circle
The wheels come with the spinners and the lug nut covers.

Tires:

Front: 245 X 45 – 17 BFG G-Force Z Rated Radials (Have a few miles left but need replacing)

Rear: 285 X 40 – 17 BFG G-Force Z Rated Radials (Very Good Condition with lots of tread left)

$ 1200.00

The attached photo shows what my wheels look like!

I would be if you wanted to switch from 15" to 17". I also have 17" Team III wheels that I wouldn't mind changing for 15" wheels. The roads are rough here and tall side wall 15's would absorb the bumps a bit better than the lower profile 17's.

That is exactly one of the reasons that I want to change!! I would like to see if having more sidewall would make a difference in the harshness of hitting a pothole. Plus I like the taller sidewall look!!
