New Tires and Nice Wheels (Southwest Ohio)

Postby witttom » Sat Mar 03, 2012 11:20 am

Comstar Rims pulled from a 1980 Honda CB650C. They come with brand new tires (zero miles), mounted and balanced.

Kenda Cruiser S/T
F: 100/90-19
R: 130/90-16

Competiton Accessories lists these for $78 Front Front and $86 Rear ($164 set), not including tax, shipping, and mounting/balancing. Retail is about $200.

This complete set includes the speedo drive, front brake rotor, front axle, rear cush drive and sprocket carrier assembly, sprocket, and rear brake hub assembly with almost-new brake shoes.

They're in really nice shape. I did not spent a lot of time cleaning them up. I just took a couple minutes to wipe them down. They could probably be cleaned up to look like new (they're close to that already).

I have them listed on my local Craigslist for $180. I have a local CB550 guy who is contemplating it, but my gut is that he does not want to pursue the technical aspect of getting the right spacers. I know it was mentioned before that these wheels are a difficult sell (can't give them away! ;)), but this is an easy and relatively inexpensive way to get new tires. If you were to go to your local shop to have these tires mounted, it could easily cost you $200.

I'd sell them for $150 to anywhere here who might be local (or within driving distance). So consider this as getting a good deal on tires, saving yourself the taxes, having them mounted for free, and I'm GIVING you the rims (maybe you CAN give them away! Hehe). Buy the tires, get the rims for free. ;)

I would rather not ship, particularly because the 19" wheel will require an oversize box and I know the cost will be excessive. BUT... if someone is REALLY interested, I'll look into it and do what I can.
