i am looking to trade a awesome pair of wats i bought recently for a set of 15" rewinds perferrable with rubber, the wats are 16X8 with a offset of 38 and they are immaculate as you can see.. we all know how much these go for in good shape so try not to lowball it out, and other trades are acceptable only in a full set.

What are the gold wheels on the back of the Cressy? Riken, Enkei??
Are they 16 inch and are they for sale?

Fife, you're asking quite a bit for the trade. A full set of Wats (http://rbmotoring.dreamhosters.com/gallery/album427?page=1) like that is $600. So for a pair, the value is about $300. I don't know too many people that'd trade you a full set of Rewinds for a pair of those wheels, rubber included or not.
Sadly, RS-8s don't have the high values other Watanabes have. That might explain why your trade has had low interest.

Please don't take any of this the wrong way. These wheels are obviously not immaculate. The pics you postd aren't very good at all but I can still see what looks like scratches or scrapes on the lips and rust on the bolts and rear lip(?). I would suggest taking better pics and maybe cleaning the wheels up a bit. Another thing is that these won't fit a MK2 with the 38mm offset you listed. That's a pretty big deal especially since you want a complete set of wheels (that would fit) in trade. I do like these wheels and if they were closer to zero offset then you'd sell them no problem.
GLWS/T,

well the wheels are very very immaculate considering age, however this is my post on all my forums where typically lowballers are everywhere so i figured id see where it got me, i know the offest isnt the best but i just used spacers and they sit flush for me

Like I said, I'm not trying to knock you but I just think that "good used condition" might be more appropriate.
From the dictionary :p :
Impeccably clean; spotless.
Free from stain or blemish; pure.
Free from fault or error: an immaculate record.
Having no markings.
Did you use bolt on adapters or just spacers? How many mm thick were they?
