Don't tell me, they have some marks on them where he had to knock off a wheel lock?

Sounds fishy to me unless they are 14's.

I can get these, or BRAND NEW rotas in 15 from my local shop for the same price
(i know 700 is alot for rotas but i live in canada so i gotta pay more at my local shop)

so i have to decide on one or the other .....i havent seen the condition, the seller is a friend of mine, and I KNOW he did not steal them, nor did the owner before he ......so any other comments about theft can be kept to yourselves thanx....

If someone is selling something alot cheaper than normal, theft is the first thing that comes to mind. You haven't seen the rims but you know they are not stolen based on what your friend said? You also don't know the condition and haven't said the size of the rim but you want us to tell you if it's a deal?

I'd find out some more info and look at the rims first. Also if you don't like my opinions on theft then don't post on a public forum that almost every member has had to deal with themselves.

I assumed, after saying the model of rim, people would most likely know it to be 15" ...if you didnt know, its 15"

I have seen them on his car, just not up close

the question remains REAL DEAL, OLD SKOOL MUGEN, or BRAND NEW ROTA
what are the opinions ......thanx nsx matt, i fully realize theft is a problem, and since you brought it up again as I ask not to be done ....u can refrain from posting again please and thanx

Another reason these wheels are going for this price is because JDM is not large here except for in the Toronto area, and even there my buddy (the seller) and I know that not many people are not interested in the look of these rims

that 700 was an approx. in U.S. funds also.... NOT canadian

I also think it's too good to be true. Make sure this guy is legit.
