    FS - one 911R 7" wheel

    I can't remember who was looking for 911R 7" wheels, but I just saw this on a VW site:

    I tried to buy those from him at least a year and a half ago when they were still needing a resto. Offered him the going rate and he refused. He insisted to have them powder coated and hasn't been able to sell them since. Be prepared for some "out there" emails if you try to correspond with him.

    I'm still looking for a single 7R by the way....

    I know--why don't these wheel flippers just leave them unrestored? They think they're helping (or doing it to hide cracks). Guess they have to justify the price somehow.

    Reminds me of a friend in Munich - Had a big coin collection started by his grandfather. Wanted to sell them so what does he do ?
    You guessed it and after they were worth a fraction .

    The seller does seem quite short with words.

    I did learn that Wheel Enhancement did the refinishing and asked the seller that since they were professionally refinished recently did he guarantee them to have no cracks or any other issues. His response was "no issues!" so I guess thats kind of a guarantee
