Laura, you want the wheel/tire combo? I'll PM you a price if you do.

I just pulled my OEM wheels with ET Streets mounted out of the shed, and noted the center is a bit worn (there should be a central groove on new tires). This is due to driving to the track and back twice! These are sticky tires and made for track use, not driving around.

Here's a stock MT ET Street. See the center groove?:


and my tires. Note just that center groove has been worn since the tire was inflated to drive to the track:







Let me know, Mike or Laura. There is still tread life left on these, but I wanted you to know they were not new. Given their wear, I'm willing to come down a bit on this set. So you get a extra set of wheels with the correct 2005+ offset and tires with some race life left. If that doesn't float your boat I'll pop off the tires and sell you the wheels cheap.

We're all in this together, and can work it out. I also have a newer set of MT ET Street Radial 275/40-17 unmounted with only one track day on them. They are in great condition so I would have to ask for just a bit more.
