4 steelies. 16"x8" x 4.5" backspacking, 8 spokes that need a brillo pad and some rustoleum taken to them (a can of flat black would do them a world of good). Located in Northern VA, would highly prefer local pickup, if you want them shipped I'll take them to the UPS store, give them your address and have them packed and shipped on your dime. Cheap and easy way to get desirable backspacing and save your alloys. Will split up if all 4 find homes.

$100.

I'll take one if you'll split. I'd take them all but I'm in Phoenix and I think the shipping would kill me. Mind you if you can tell me shipping to 85048 I'll reconsider.

I want the wheel so I'm serious. I really only need one for a spare but if it means I get one I'd take the lot for that price. My only concern is that shipping would be a killer as we are at opposite ends of the country. I don't want to pay $200 for shipping on $100 of wheels.

I'm not in a hurry as I'm currently building my truck so I can wait for your convenience.

If I can find someone to split them with what would each wheel go for?

$25/ea. I'll try to get over to UPS in the next day or two. Note that these are Defender/Series/RRC/D1 bolt pattern.

Yup,
I'm using them on a modified NADA 109. They work well with the 109 supertanker turning circle.

In that case I'll have to pass. I'm finding this a lot at the moment. I've a set of door posts in WY and the shipping I'm getting quoted is insane.

Thanks for the offer anyway.

Where in Wyoming are your doorposts? I might be able to arrange some decent shipping if they are local to me?

They are with Bill at Riverton Rovers in Riverton. If I can get them to Casper they can be shoved on a Greyhound for about $100. I tried U-ship and all the usual suspects and everyone wants $300 plus. The pair of them are only about 55lbs but the size generates te expense.

I'd appreciate any help. I'm in no great hurry as I'm still building the drivetrain for my truck so any time in the next 3 months works for me if that helps.

Don't blame you, I couldn't believe it!

Good luck,
