FS: OZ Futura - 18x8/18x9 et 35 - Copper Plated Lips + extra lips
I've been through hell and back with these. I'm done, just sticking with my lovely 17x8 BBS RK's and taking a nice long pause from the scene.
These wheels are a 8 out of 10. Up front and honest, they aren't perfect, but neither am I. These wheels were discontinued years ago. This set was built in April of 1995!!
2: 18x8 et 35
2: 18x9 et 35
2: 3.75" Lips - Also copper plated
4: Center Caps
5x112 Mercedes-Benz/VW/Audi
66.56 center bore and I purchased aluminum hubcentric rings for a VW/Audi 57.1 bore.
These came off a Mercedes originally. Your center bore, so no issues there, with the option to add the larger lip, these stagger setup would look great.
Centers were repainted Light Silver Metallic (OEM Audi color). All (6) lips were copper plated. Again I mention, they are not perfect. 1 has a blemish where the aluminum is regular color and not copper plated, size of a penny roughly. The clearcoat could use a stripping and recoating. I was in essence screwed by a shop big time. I'm just trying to get these out of the way, not making a single dime on these as I have invested over $3,500 into these. They were imported from Germany for me, lots of work involved in the refinishing process, and then half-assedness on the shops part. I just no longer have the time for my car or these no less. They are in great shape as is for the season, but if anyone does value perfection and nit picks, the lips are the only things that may need slight attention.
I'm selling these without tires unless other wise noted. Local prefered but will ship at your expense. Paypal verified and a reputable member on AudiWorld, AudiZine, VwVortex and I work for a local Mercedes-Benz dealer in NJ.
Bigger lips were on temporarily, too big for my car. :x
Pre-Copper
I will also throw in the necessary OZ wheel tools to take these bad boys apart. ($150.00 value)
$3250.00 + shipping. Local within 50 miles, I'll drive these to your house.

I do work at the RC in Union. If I'm not mistaken, I was drooling over your E55 a few months back. Yellow calipers and tons of mods right? I'm considering selling the S4 for an E55 and these wheels would be a great fit with the 10.25's out back. Next time you are around, give me a holler.

I put these on the vortex, heading over to audizine now with this post, I'll get a lot of crap for the price but worth a shot.

Wow with the tools? Thats a deal. The OZ tools are really hard to find. People on Vortex are constantly looking for these tools. These are really good looking wheels. I wonder if you left them outside and didn't take care of them if they would turn green?
