I have a set of Chrome Stern ST1's in Chrome. I am be selling them due to the fact that I was misinformed that they would fit on my car (S2000). They are 5x114.3 with a positive offset around 45 mm. The rims are 18x8 and 18x9.5. They have NEVER been used and would come with BRAND NEW never been used BF Goodrich GForce Sport. Sized in 225-40-18 and 265-35-18. The asking price is $1800.
Ballpark figure?
Please respond quickly. My car goes in for new tires tomorrow!

These are perfect for rear wheel drive Japanese Sports Compacts and Sedans. Supra, RX8, 350Z, G35, etc. Anything else with 5x114.3 can roll with these.

Thanks for your interest Shizzy- but I would NOT suggest these to fit on your Accord. They probably would fit as far as size is concerned, but front wheel drive vehicles are really not meant to have staggered wheels. It benefits rear wheel drive handling, but would most likely destroy yours. With that said- you definitely could buy them anyway....

The set is now officially for sale. I am asking 1800. Remember, these have never been used and will come with new lug nuts and locks as well.

Only if they were black or gun metal, I think they will fit my Z32 convertible just fine. Good looking wheels though.

Jaycura- I would not recommend these to fit on your car either. Like Shizzy, your car is hotness, but front wheel drive vehicles never should have staggered rims. (lol- with that said I can be guilt free if you just have to have them...)
JITB- to enlighten you on staggered rims; they are staggered when the front rim and tire set-up is smaller than the rear rim and tire set-up. This ONLY benefits rear wheel drive vehicles for handling. It allows the rear wheels to receive more of the power and footing, and the fronts serve to steer more precisely. Alot of cars, if you look carefully, will come like that stock. My car came with 205-55-16 in front and 225-50-16 in back. G35's and Z's come staggered. Supra, New GTO, NSX are staggered. Viper and Corvette are heavily staggered- with different diameter rims in front and back. Even luxury boats from Europe like S500, E500, 750i, 645ci, 545i come staggered stock. They are optional on baby boats like C class and 3 series, but still pretty common. Thats why those cars that have deep dish lips in back will seem so much deeper than those in front.The trade off for looking cool and superior handling is NOT having the ability to rotate your tires. (a chance for increased and non-correctional tire wear. You had better keep your car aligned!)
Back to the sale- the front sizes are 18x8" with 225-40-18 tires. The rear sizes are 18x9.5" with 265-35-18 tires. The rear wheels are 1.5 inches wider than the front! Please enjoy the examples of staggered rims below. PS- the wheels I am selling have just under a 2 inch lip in front with more than a 3 inch lip in back.

The rims are NOT for sale anymore. Thanks for those of you with interest. They ended up fitting my car just fine- the discrepancy was caused when the technician placed the rear rim on the front hub. PS- will a mod please close this?
