2 x Boyd Smoothie 2's
EDITED 9.25pm on the 24th ... please read again ... thanks .. maybe I should just start a new thread?
-------------------------
They've seen much better days and need to be polished real good. They've got brake dust on them and are a bit oxidized but not pitted as far as I can see; so a good polish will give them new life. Center caps are included.
EDIT: I made a HUGE error, these are 17" rims and from my measurements are EDIT:10.5" wide at the mounting surface of the tire. Sorry didn't mean to mislead anyone or be sly about it, I was getting my Z06's mixed up with these. BS is 6.5" and lip is 3.25"
Make an offer shipped. Can get pics if there's interest ... need to post a price so $230 shipped or tell me I'm on crack!
EDIT PICS!!!

Sending out pics right now to the email addys I have, will try to host them up for the rest of you.
UPDATE: I tried measuring the wheel width and I'm not sure what to take of my measurements. If I measure to the outsides, it gives me 10.5", I'm wondering if that's right. I'm guessing it's less if measured between the tires mounting surfaces, thereby making it a 9.5" ... which means I have to change the description. They have 275 tires mounted on them, so that kinda makes me believe that they are most probably 9.5"s ... either way, make an offer!

I apologize for the mix-up and kinda now understand that people are gonna think I'm some shady character trying to misrepresent an item for sale. It was late at night when I saw the wheels in the mess back there and got my measurements mixed up when I was trying to remember the dimensions at work the next day. Thanks Andrew for pointing that fact out, I owe you one.

Took more time outside in the cold and indeed verified that these are 17x10.5 wheels with 275/40-17 tires (mismatched but ~75% remaining tread).
I know people are gonna be pissed off at me 'cos I've had a lot of interest and questions and I couldn't verify any of the info until just now ... sorry.

I think boyds came in only 9in and 10in barrels. Also, I dont think "polishing" will do anything to those wheels. IMO they need to be media blasted, or get some aircraft stripper put on them.

that makes more sense now I the measurements I got, so they are intact 10 wide. Thanks for the info. Yeah, they're beyond a bit of elbow grease and would require something a bit more industrial in nature. I can try doing it myself if these don't sell like this, but then I'll have more time in them and time=money
