WTT: 4x 8.5" DSII with tires for your light 17x9s

Picked up some 255 RE01R's, and wanted to see if I could trade my four 8.5" DSII's with tires for some light 17x9s without tires.

The DSII's are in very good condition. The two with Azenis (245-45-17 RT-615) were on my car when I bought it, and well cared for by the previous owners. I took them off the car after a few months (stock suspension, good alignment, no camber wear that I could see) and a few months ago traded my two fronts and spare for two more rears from a member here on the forum. These two have Kumho Ecsta Supras (245-40-17) on them. Also in very good condition. I have not put these on the car and driven on them, but you can see the tires have plenty of tread left on them. They have all been stored inside my apartment, out of the sun and weather.

I am looking for something 17x9, et40+, light, no adapters, good condition (don't have to be mint, but no bends/gashes/scars). First choice would be a set of the APEX wheels (here) but also willing to consider LTW5's, or something else. Would love some 17x9 RGR's, and might be able to put some cash together on my end if that was an option. Obviously CCW classics, Fikse fm5/fm10 in 17x9 would also be great, if the price is right. Located in Santa Barbara, and will be in Orange County and Monterey over the next few weekends so pretty much anywhere from SD to SF I can meet up for an exchange to save on shipping. Local deals preferred so that there are no surprises.

Anyway, pictures of the DSII's:

Pictures show a little bit of curb rash, those are the worst parts I found. There is some light dust/brake dust on the wheels, and I will clean them before we trade.

so.... show me what you've got. my email is Hammer03 (at) Pacbell.net if you prefer, or you can pm me/post here.

Also have an AA tuned DME for a supercharged S52 fs if anyone is interested, as part of the trade or not.

AA tuned DME, for 7# of boost from a centrifugal blower, 3" hfm, no aftercooling, and 28# injectors. EWS not removed, so it will need to be aligned as well. I sent it to AA to verify the tune after I received it, but never installed it. Asking $400.

not sure what pics are worth, but here are the DME's, Dinan one is sold:

Still looking. Had several people ask, and I'll sell them outright for $800 with the tires.

Those are 4 of the rear size, correct?

Do they fit on the front without spacers?

Correct, four rear wheels. I think most people run a 10mm spacer up front. I think you would want to, but I can't say for sure that it would be necessary. It would be very close without a spacer though if it didn't hit strut. I haven't had a chance to throw them on the front yet. From what I've been able to find, they're et41.
