FS: 4 Kumho Tires and 2 Racing Seats

[GMalatrasi]

SEATS ARE SOLD!!!I bought these wheels about a year ago but i had to wait 'til I needed new tires to put them on. I finally got the tires and they are too big for my P5 with the 50mm offset wheels.They are Kumho Ecsta SPT 225/45 R17 XL.
I bought the 225s because they were on sale at the time on TireRack.
I needed 205s or 215s for them to fit.
So I need to sell these so that I can buy the ones that fit.
They are brand new, they even have the glue from the info stickers, that's why they have all the crap stuck on them.
I'm asking $375, again offers will be considered, so much for breaking even.

As for the wheels I might sell them as well if I get a good offer for them.
They are the Mazda6 17" alloys, 5x114.3 with a 60mm offset.
They have some scuffs and scratches, but nothing major.
If anyone is interested in them, I can get better pics of each one.

Early Morning Bump

Afternoon Bump

[GMalatrasi]

Anyone?

[JC-MP5]

I'd get a seat. But they are teh reclinable :(

[GMalatrasi]

Why is that a bad thing?

[CrashKelly]

Id love to get them both...theyd semi match my interior...only problem is shipping costs and it's almost xmas...so basically I can only afford to buy things for my family...Bump for a nice set of seats though.

PS. do they have the proper mounting hardware to go in an MSP? Or would I have to buy a new set of slider brackets?

[kansei]

I'm still infatuated with those Mazda6 wheels but that's like.. Mazda6 tire size on them, so no dice on my car.

They come with sliders but you still need to get or make mounts cause the seats for our cars have funny mounts.

I dont follow what you mean... Are you saying you dont want them cause they have tires on them?
I can take the tires off for you.

[kansei]

I mostly don't want them because my current wheels are under 15 pounds.. but also because it would make my CF hood look really out of place. The wheels would look amazing on your old or new P5.. you just need some 215/40 on them and some wheel spacers because of the ridiculous offset they are.

[GMalatrasi]

I know but if I use spacers I need to get longer studs, also I was thinking, since the rest of the car is gonna appear stock (the sleeper turbo wagon), I might want to go with a set of wheels that call a lil more attention to the car and make ppl wonder what else it has.

[kansei]

I totally see where you're coming from. The only reason anyone ever thinks twice is because of my hood and wheels, otherwise the car appears totally stock (people don't tend to notice lowering kits on cars they don't own).

although removing the lower front grille helps as well :P

[GMalatrasi]

Yeah but I dont necessarily want them to know it's turbo'ed.
I just want them to look and wonder.

Also those wheels arent all that light.
Maybe If I paint them bright white, I think white wheels would look good against the laser blue.

[kansei]

or bronze or gold :)

[GMalatrasi]

I dont think i want to look like the 300 subbies at school with that look.

[kansei]

I didn't think Subarus were that popular in the south. Here, yeah I would never do it.. people already have enough time figuring out what my car is, now that it'll have a shaved hatch they'll be totally clueless lol.

most people think it's a wrx but I've been asked if it was a mazda3 as well (omg I wanted to end my life).

[GMalatrasi]

Lol... well now you have a turbo toyota P5ish... That doesnt help ppl figure anything out.

When's ur car gonna be done?

[kansei]

wednesday.. probably late in the day tuesday. The car should have been painted today.. when I saw it yesterday the car was in one paint booth, the new hatch, front bumper, and rear bumper in another. Just the front doors and glass are taped off on the car, basically everything has to be painted or blended this time.

Monday they have to assemble and hopefully the last parts order (little things like the clips on the sides of the headlights for the front bumper) comes in. It still needs a chassis alignment check (and adjustment if needed), a 4-wheel alignment (to my specs), oil change (royal purple + pureone filter I dropped off yesterday), and snow tires mounted up (dropped off yesterday).

but to end this threadjack I made a huge post yesterday in the thread about it: http://www.themazdaforum.com/showthread.php?t=9

Bump for the tires and seats

[GMalatrasi]

Anyone need tires?

I certainly do but not this size!!
Buy these so I can buy mine.

[kansei]

This would require some Mazda6 members being on here :P

[liquid_ag]

bump for the best tires ever

[GMalatrasi]

This would require some Mazda6 members being on here :P


I'm sure more than just mazda6s can fit 225s.
But yes that would help.

[85rotary]

u still have the seats?? can i fit 225s on a lowered 00 sedan??

[GMalatrasi]

I still have both the seats and the tires... About the fitment, I dont want to say yes cause I'm not sure but I've heard that if you have the perfect offset you could.
Might require rolling the rear fenders.

u still have the seats?? can i fit 225s on a lowered 00 sedan??

[kansei]

I know someone that runs 225/45-17 on an MSP without rolled fenders.. but yeah the offset has to be dead on within a mm.

[85rotary]

does anyone know what the magic number is?? i really wanna run some fat tires on the pro

[GMalatrasi]

I looked around and I cant find a definite number for you.
Sorry

[85rotary]

thats fine thanks ill try to find it and if i can ill hit u back up for the tires if u still have them. but them seats, still for sale? what would i have to do to get them into my car(00 lx)?

[GMalatrasi]

The seats are still for sale. To mount them u'd need to find or make the mounts.
Something like this:
218219

Bump for tires

[GMalatrasi]

No one needs tires?

[fez]

haha
apparently tires aren't the priority these days :X
too bad these are 17s :/

[GMalatrasi]

Yeah and I really need new tires.

[kansei]

put them on? lol

nah the trouble is definitely that there's a lot of Proteges on here and those won't fit sadly :(

[GMalatrasi]

But where are the Mazda6 owners?

[Riff.Raff]

if shipping to hawaii wasn't like taking a shot to the sacs, i would totally take these tires. they fit the msp racing harts.. i could use some new tires...

bummer

[rally2003]

[GMalatrasi]

Seats have been sold, Only tires or rims left

[rally2003]
