Ok here is the scoop so far:
I originaly emailed spdepot01 on ebay about the question of the 18x9 having a 3 inch lip. I was emailed back saying Yes we have 18x9 and they do now have the 3 inch lip. I was told $650 + Shipping+7% sales tax for a set of 4 for these. I know this sounds cheap to some but there is serious confusion going because of the pics and price he gave me. The pics he gave me showed the wheels ontop of a the box that said the sized was 18x8 and 18x7.5. So I eamiled him again and said this:
1."I ask again do you have 18x9 with the 3 inch lip"? In all the colors?
2. You stated that it would be $650+Shipping+sales tax and all of your other auctions for the 18' are either $530 with Free Shipping + 7% sales tax or $610 with Free Shipping +7% sales tax, So I need to clear up this confusion about what you have because I am very interested in buying a set of these wheel!"
I have yet to hear back from them for 2 days and so I sent an email today saying I would like to know.
So from what I know the $800 dollars to me sounded very expesive for what I was told they were going to cost and what is on ebay right now.
So hopefully this will be cleared up soon. Maybe someone else can email this dude?
I would put the pics on here but don't know how??? If I could email them to someone to post I would apppreciate it.

$650.00-700 sounds about right for the 18x7 or 18x8's. That is the price I was quoted when I was going to buy some for my g.f.'s Celica. Call this place maybe they can help you out

My 19x9.5s were $1000.00 + $80(shipping). This was almost two years ago on ebay.

I have contemplated getting these for a long time, they look so hot on nineball's 35th I just can't stand it....19's though...that's a lot of cake and a very thin tire....eeek
I think it might take the 19's to have that same " DAYUM!!!!" effect?

Does anyone have pictures of the different finishes? Like chrome versus silver or what not?
They'll be going on a NBM TransAm and i plan on doing some sort of racing stripes later on in a metallic silver. What would look best?

Wheel quality is surprisingly very good for the price. I'd say that the quality is at least as good or better than a factory wheel. The wheels are tough also, i've hit some serious potholes with my 19s thinking for sure they would be bent, but it hasn't happened yet.
Keep in mind that I did the entire Hotrod Power Tour last year (over 2,300 miles) on these wheels/tires last year, as well as driving to Bristol, TN from Houston and back. I've put a ton of road trip miles on them without a problem.

Ok the guy got back to me and this is what he said:
Good Afternoon:
Sorry for the delay in communication. The box is just to hold up the wheels, I do have them in 18x9. The auction is for 18x8, the 18x9 cost more. They are available in Hyper Silver Dark and Light. The best price I can do is $ 650.00 shipped. Let me know if you have anymore questions.
Thank You,

Thanks for all the compliments guys. I love these rims like you can't beleive. Occasionally I go out to the garage just to take a peak at them.... LOL just kidding.
I've gotten more compliments on them and my car in the past 4 months than I did over the past 4 years owning my car. On the rare occasion I drive it to work, all of my coworkers are in awe over them, even the non car people.
