Nah....he's asking too much for them. Especially when the rims have scuff marks and tires are half way gone.

Those American Eagle series 219 wheels are discontinued. Went out of production in 2004.

Just a little background to help Jim out here. These are american eagle 219's. These are one of 10 custom sets made back in 2005. They didn't make these in a x9.5" wide rim and I was able to wrangle them enough to get a run of 10 sets made at that width. I think when I weighed mine they weighed 27 lbs, 57lbs with my hankook tires. They made these in the x8" width no problem, but all I was told when I asked about the 9.5" width was that they hadn't been made....hence the 6 month quest to get them made. These are pretty much identical to the Boyd wheels that go for ~500/wheel.

How tall are they with a tape measure, not what there "supposed" to be by size, but actual?

one rim has scuff marks that i am sure could be rubed out and the tires are about 20-30% worn. it would cost $2000-$3000 to get this set up right now new. the wide rims with lots of back spacing is hard to come by without spending $400+ per wheel.

if no one buys them for $1300 after awhile then i will work my way down a little.

28.75" thats the unloaded dia. from the ground to the top of the tire is more like 28" even with the tire on the truck.
