I would like to find a set (four) front (17x8.5") C5 wheels.  The cheaper the better, I just need them to be straight and not chrome.  Shipping would be to 40324.

They are for the Sonoma project.  I could buy pairs as well, as most people seem to have sets of 4 (staggered) or maybe only have fronts because they replaced their fronts with rears.

I have 2 fronts that I berkeleying hate. They currently have tires mounted. What’s your timeframe, and are you ever in the Detroit area?

Dang!  Unfortunately, I’m never up that way. 
 

Timing is within the next month or so.

I’ve been known to buy a C5 front wheel or two

Sounds good, let me know how things are looking on your end.  I'm going to try and pick up the wheels in the photo above, so that will leave a pair as all I need.

The set in the picture above disappeared from Marketplace and the guy stopped responding to my texts trying to schedule a meetup, so I still need 4 (or 5, for a spare).

You'll need to log in to post.
