For Sale: two pairs (4 total) autocross wheels and tires, ran on my 92 Sentra SE-R. 4x100 bolt holes, 14" diameter. Large 59mm hub hole big enough for anything you would put them on. Offset is around 35 - 40mm. Fits many older small cars, including Sentra, Civic, Corolla, Miata.

1st pair: Stock 1991-94 Sentra SE-R wheels, 14" x 5.5". Ancient BFG R1 competition tires (circa 1994.)

2nd pair: Borbet Type-C wheels, 14" x 6". Ancient BFG R1 competition tires (circa 1997.)

Asking $40 for all four. They're worth nearly that in scrap aluminum if you take the tires off!

The rubber obviously isn't what it used to be, but still has lots of tread and might be usable for autocross. There are some minor cracks in the rubber. I wouldn't take them on public roads or a track or other high speed event, due to age. But you could probably still use them for autocross them and have a little more stick than your street tires, as well as avoiding shredding your daily commuter rubber.

Tire size is 205-55-14 in an autox / track compound with a "50" treadwear rating.

I DO NOT WANT TO SHIP these! They are available for pick-up near Asheville, NC.

How quick do you need them removed? I need to take a business trip up to Old Fort, NC within the next month and would like to pick them up when I'm in the area.

I'll have to let you know a date after I schedule the trip.

I'm working on cleaning out the garage for winter, and I'm somewhat anxious to get rid of them. So... I want to stick with "first come, first sold". But if no one else steps up, I'm not gonna toss them in the dump either. So when you have a date scheduled, give me a heads up, and I can hold them for you for a few days if you're definitely going to be in the area.

-Thanks!

In the top picture, the Borbet is the six spoke wheel on the right.

Pairs don't do me any good, so free game for anyone else.
