Used rota slipstreams - what are they worth? - 4/17/2008 11:44:16 AM    fivespeed Posts: 52 Joined: 8/10/2007 Status: offline Here is an ad I found on craigslist: 15" [15x7.5] Rota Slips Black with 205/50/15 Kuhmo Ectsa, mounted and balanced. less than 500 miles, fresh, no lip or curb checks. Paid $800, first $650 cash takes it He said  I could take them for 600 OR make an offer. I haven't seen them yet, but assuming they're in good condition, what do you think I should pay for them? _____________________________ Post #: 1

If the tires are really that new and the rims are mint, 600 is fine. I'd still offer him 550 cash and run with 'em. _____________________________ Build Thread: http://www.hondacivicforum.com/m_576697/tm.htm For Sale Thread: http://www.hondacivicforum.com/m_558867/mpage_1/key_/tm.htm#559090 Bob Saget!
