"Brand new 16" wheel and tire package for sale in US"
 
Just in case the 16" Q4 wheels (post below this one) are not sold I am offering a new 16" aftermarket wheels and tire package I've bought last year to put on my 94 LS. They are brand new exception of couple of stories. One tire and wheel has about 200ft. I had to test fit it to make sure it fits perfectly. I just drove it around the block. Tire still looks new. Also the one of wheel got slightly scratched during the tire install. They were sent to the alloy wheel repair center and repaired. You can't tell any difference just by looking at it but if you touch it you can feel the slight paint imperfection. So less than perfect but never the less looks new and nice. Classic 5 spoke desing, 16" by 8" wide. Sort of wide but still fits fine. Tire size is 215/55/16. Slightly larger than factory size (205/55/16) and offers wider tread but not too wide. Brand and model is Kumho Ecsta HP4 716. Not the expensive type but it is rated better than most other well known name brand tires according to Tire Rack reivews. It is rated at top 5 in Grand Touring All season category (http://www.tirerack.com/tires/surveyresults/gtas.jsp).

Wheels have correct bolt pattern for 164. Offset matches the 164. Wheels didn't come with the matching bolt but I can supply them used for extra or you can use the existing bolt slight cut (factory bolts are too long for this wheel). It is hub centric with modified hub centric ring to fit Alfa romoe 58.1mm center bore. Make and model is VOXX MGR. Made in Italy or Germany.

I am thinking about around $650 plus shipping. Wheels and tires are all mounted and professionally balanced (this job alone costs usually $80).

I was going to install the alfa center caps on those as well. Original one is larger than alfa center cap so I am sure I can make a hole in the original cap and put alfa center cap on it.

Since I sold the Q4 wheel set I no longer need to sell this one. Thank you to those of you who showed interest and made an offers.
