Centerline 17's at a good price!



Well... I have the opportunity to get these suckers at about 150 a piece for 17's. I kinda dig the rim also. I can get some Kumho tires for them at about 70 a piece. I need new tires badly. Im wondering if it would be a good idea to crank out a new tire/rim combo and just sell the old rims.

Any thoughts? I would like to see them photoshopped on a 73-80 if anybody could. Thanks.

Thumbs up

As "Stone Cold" Steve Austin would say "h*ll yeah"!. Those are from Centerline's Sundance series of wheels, its the Sunray II and the retail price is over $300 each. I have seen them for as low as $295 each. If you can get them for $150 each, then get them. It will be a steal! The Kumho's for $70 each seems like a good deal too! Keep us informed.

Aren't those Centerline Archer's? EVERYONE has those in 20" around here, cuz they're so cheap...but they are bad ass. What size tires are you going with Rolf? 255/55's? I got my 255/55 17" Kumho's for $75 each...if you're getting 255/50's ya gotta hook a brotha up for $70 each!

Well, I was also looking at the Eagle Alloy 212's wich everyone has. I wanted 18's but these are too good of a deal. My tire size would be 255/45/17. I dont want too tall of a tire.

Good deal and a nice wheel.

Try checking with http://www.bigjimsrims.com he can get pretty good prices and might be able to beat that $150/wheel.

They look nice to me. If that $150 a wheel is a good price I say you get them. They look pretty cool.

If I could get those rims for $150 each, I woulda! I paid $175 each for my 17" 212's...but IMHO 255/45 is pretty short...255/50 would be a better heighth if possible.
But definately get those rims, they SCHWEET!
BTW: My bad about the Archer's, the Archer's spoke's aren't EVEN like the Sunray's.
