My opinion (and I know I'm not the only one)... if it says "JAOS," there is NO good price. At least not any price worth it - unless you manage to find them used. Still probably overpriced.

$512 list price for a frickin' wheel?? Ridiculous. I hope you're getting a killer deal on them.

there's nothing really on price.

I guess my real question is, is $1000 canadian a good price for these wheels and tires with the wrong offset?

I think that wheel retails for the REDICULOUS price of about $4-500 per wheel. Just off the top of my head $1000CDN is in the neighborhood of like what , $750 ish U.S.? So if that's the price that you are paying then that is a stellar deal.

So are they used or stolen ? Either way , if you like the wheel, you're happy with the deal , they are in good shape , they fit and they don't stick out a bunch then why not get them ?

I am running those Jaos with super swampers and mine are 0" offset, the wheel stick out about half inch, it is not really noticeable.

Actually here it is. You should be fine with 18mm offset too. Ohh by the way that is a good price I got mine for 350 a piece. They are the Victron Excel II Pro, which are very similar to the ones you’re asking.

Thanks... so it seems that either way, I should buy them and if I decide I don't want to use them, I could easily sell them without losing any cash. smile
