FS: Brand new in box bronze Volk CE28n's (super lightweight!)

Hi guys! I'm actually turning the car back to stock so these wheels just ordered are of no use for me anymore. My loss is your gain and I'm willing to take a hit on them to get rid of them fast.


BRAND NEW SET: BRONZE CE28N 14x5.5 +36 4x100

Attain 40+ mpg easily with these as they only weigh (according to weight chart) 8.33lbs each! The Volk CE28n has long been noted as the lightest forged wheel you can buy in the consumer market today. You won't have to worry much about rough roads as they're a one piece forged wheel! I would suggest avoiding potholes if you can though as anything can happen.

Pictures of them:






Retail price for them is $1800 but I'm selling them for $1260 cash picked up or +$100 for shipping to the lower 48 states. If you want to use Paypal, I'll split Paypal fees with you (half of 3.2%). These are located in the LA (Socal) area and will come with metal valve stems, some tuner lugs and hub centric rings. Center caps are not included.

Technically, yes I did order wheels smaller than my SPORT wheels that came stock. But the base model comes with 14x5.5 +45 steel wheels. It's not a heavy wheel, but if you can replace it with even lighter, and strong forged wheel, you should be able to attain a higher MPG! Not to mention the fact that there'll be less unsprung weight so the car won't have to exert itself as much when accelerating, turning, braking, etc.

Yeah, if I was keeping the Fit, I wouldn't have made this post. I'm pretty bummed since I really wanted to play with such nice and lightweight wheels for the daily driver. My gf and I even challenge each other on long trips to see who can get higher mpg.

Where did you get your set from? I was wondering if they only come in bronze. I would like a different color.

It'll be at least a 3 month wait if you order them. You might as well get these and have them powder coated. It will still be cheaper than to order a set in a different color. I would jump on these if I didn't have wheels already.

If you want to order new ones, citytireonline.com can help you out. Ask for Brian, i buy all my Volks from him.
