you might want to check the wheels and tires out...cuz....i got a set of rotas for $450 new....and then you can throw some kumho's like this dude did for like $250 and thats $700 brand new...so i mean if the wheels and tires are in good shape then i would take it for 550......imo

all the 15s at least on ebay run in the $400-$500+ range including shipping, without tires.
trust me, i always do my research before i buy anything and that's one of the reasons i posted this thread.

but let me know if you find some for $350...


and to everyone, thanks for all your opinions

Where are all these people getting these low numbers??! The lowerest I saw Rota Slipstreams on Fleabay for was 375 + 75 = 450
Kumho tires usually run from 300-350 if you buy their cheapest ones. And don't forget about mounting and balancing, THAT'S NOT FREE.

So that comes to 450 + 300 = 750 new MAYBE

Good luck with your bargaining!

I had Ecsta Supra 712 and they were AMAZING! I have Kumho ASX's right now and love them. Leave it to EJ6 to hate on something. lolĀ 


reason being, i've owned a set, they were horrible quality. they were 711's (which are no longer in production). Kumho makes good tires, but only they're high end models are worth a penny to me. both sides of my entire family have been in the tire business for about 30 years now, so i usually ask advice about tires from them. if i want quality, i either go for michelin, bfgoodrich, or other larger companies. but that's just me, i don't have experience with 712's but i've heard they're alright.

and cut out the "ej6 is hating" comments, it's just getting old..
