    16x9 and 16x8 wheels.

    Have two sets of wheels up forsale. Both were on my truck at one point in time.

    First up is the stock wheels that came on the truck.





    Next is a set of 16x9 MB wheels. Got them off craigslist with a set of tires 4 years ago. They have a weird offset so they kinda stick out a little but with the AT's I had looked pretty good. Not sure on the model of them as I bought them used, but they look like the renegade, which is discontinued.

    The white spots/streaks on these wheels have been there for a long time..one day a buddy and I were washing our trucks and he used an armorall type of specific wheel cleaner...sprayed on and never came off. Worked fine on his wheels but stained mine somehow. They will probably come off with some sanding and buffing. If they dint sell this way I'll probably sand and paint them or have them blasted and powder coated for a set of slicks.







    I've got no idea how much these are worth...I'll start out at 200 for either set?

    Whatever. I'll do what I want.

    I've tried everything to get that crap off and nothing has worked. I may actually just sand and paint them and keep 2 for slicks.

    I'll try it. But I'm kinda liking the idea of sanding and painting them for myself lol.

    I work at a dealership and second that the acid will work to remove the staining.
