Default FS: (TW) Black Enkei RPF1 15x7 Wheels, 4x100

I'm basically just trying to see if I get any bites on these. I'm in no hurry to sell them, as they are my track-only wheels, and I intend to keep them if I do not get any good offers. The only reason I am looking to get rid of these wheels, is that I am currently using 225 hoosiers on them, and that is the highest size r-compound I can run on this wheel (safely). I would like to step up to a 15x9 wheel, so I can try out 275 hoosier on front, while still running 225 on rear for auto-x. If it weren't for needing a wider wheel, I would absolutely keep these wheels without hesitation.

***SOLD***
Asking Price: $650 + shipping FIRM (I paid over $900 shipped from tirerack.com, $213 each plus $56 for shipping)
Tires are not included, and will be removed upon agreement of sale.
NO TRADES, unless you have 15x9 949Racing 6UL's in Nickel finish. Or an MFactory Helical LSD for B16

Some info on the wheels:
They are 15x7
41 Offset
~9.5 lbs per wheel (as far as I know, they are the lightest 15x7 on the market)
(4) Hub-Centric rings are included
Valve stem caps are included, just not pictured. I did not use them because I constantly had to check/adjust tire pressures. They are black.
Center caps are not included (because Enkei does not make a center cap for the 15" wheel, they start selling them for extra at 16" +, for around $100.
Some people just stick a honda center cap in these, and somehow make it stay.

These wheels for sure have less than 25 miles on them. They were not used on the street at all, and only for auto-x events, and a couple of times at Miller. Therefore, there is no curb rash.

The only thing wrong with 1 of the wheels is a couple of very light chip marks (look like the small white dots you get on your bumper from daily driving). I simply used a black touch-up paint brush so they are not as noticeable. For whatever reason, the finish Enkei puts on these wheels is quite thin, and all it took was one excursion off the track at miller at maybe 25mph (after hard braking), and the gravel dotted the black finish. There is a picture below showing this, and you can see it is not bad at all.

You can contact me through PM, My name is Eric

Sorry, the wheels are a little dirty in the pics (spots on wheel 3 are just water spots). I just gave them a quick wipe down.

^Thanks! Just an FYI if anyone reads this, tires are not included. $650 is a steal though. I just did a quick search, the cheapest deal I could find for these wheels on both ebay and google shopping (which searches multiple dealers) was $200 per wheel, plus shipping. (in silver, which is a bit cheaper than black for some reason). Tirerack.com (where I bought these) is selling the black ones for $213 per wheel, plus shipping, the more common silver ones are a bit cheaper, at $190 each, plus shipping.

At my price, you are almost getting one wheel for free.
