FS: 15x6 JJ steel rims for US '04-current Prius, Matrix, '03-? Corolla mrv@kluge.net 10-29-2006

I have a set of four 15 x 6 JJ steel "generic" black rims available for
sale. $145 for the set. If you are near 10589 (NY, USA), I am willing
to drive about 2 hours for delivery, otherwise you will have to pay
shipping (I'd guess around $80 for the set).

I'm only selling them as a set of 4. (But feel free to break up the
set later if you wish. If you can find another owner or three if you
only want 2 rims for winter use or for use as a full-sized spare,
that's fine, but you do the split of the set.)


I used the rims on my 2004 Toyota Prius between Nov. 2005 and May 2006
(<6 months), for about 2000-3000 miles (I don't have my maintenance
notebook handy to give exact numbers/dates of service at the moment.)
I purchased them last fall (2005) in a tire/wheel package for use with
my winter tires (Nokian WR). Since I recently moved out of MA (and do
not have tire storage anymore, an unforseen circumstance last fall), I
put the 4-season
Nokian WRs that were on these rims onto my OEM alloy rims, and disposed
of the old/worn OEM Goodyear Integrity tires.

New from tirefactory.net these rims were $59.99 each last Nov. 2005

The specs for the US 2004-current Toyota OEM Prius rims are:
15x6" JJ, PCD 100mm, 45mm offset, 5 hole
(same wheel as the Matrix and the newer (2003-?) redesign of the
Corolla)

I don't have the exact specs on these steel rims, but they did work on
my 2004 Prius. They have two sets of 5-bolt star patterns, so they can
be a little frustrating to put on yourself (a smaller and a larger bolt
pattern).


Note: these will not fit on the 2001-2003 Toyota Prius, whose US rims
are:
14x5.5" 100mm bolt circle, (not sure if 40 or 45mm offset), 4 hole
(same wheel as the older 1993-2002 Corolla, and the pre-2004 Echo)

If you are interested in these other steel rims, let me know, or look
for my previous post about them.

Where are you at? Do you ever come back to Mass?

I'd offer $120. But, I have to make sure they fit my Scion first.
I'm in the Greenfield area, but would be willing to meet you in
Pittsfield, Springfield, maybe even the Hartford area, depending on where
you are in NY.

If you do a Google search on "zip code 10589" (provided in the original
post) you can see the exact location.

Damn...why didn't I think of that?

Sorry, I had several takers at my asking price of $145.
