Nope, retired Air Force guy, had a c5 with these wheels, upgraded to c6 wheels, sold the c5 car, guy who bought the car didn't want the c5 rims. So he had these laying around in the garage

Does it say 1304? Or 0413? The first 2 digits is the week, next two digits is the year.

Tires were made less than 2 months ago, and the owner turned around and replaced the wheels and sold the car? I'm pretty sure that was just a story and you just bought some stolen wheels lol. For the price you paid and the date on the tires, you gotta admit it's a luttle fishy... Unless you saw the guy's c5, but he said he sold the car so....

Glad you are happy. I bought some perfect Y2k wheels for 100 and added brand spanking new michelin tires for about 200. Sold the wheels for 350 and I mean perfect.
