Default Set of (4) early offset 8x16 and 7x16 phone dials for sale (lots of pics)

I'm selling my set of early offset phone dials, 8x16 et 23.3 and 7x16 et 23.3. They have some rash from daily use (and incompetent tire guys) but are straight and true, and come with color center caps and good summer tires with good tread life left. I'm asking 400 OBO local pickup, will ship if buyer pays actual shipping. The wheels are located in copperas cover Texas, sort of in between waco and austin. I'll update with pics shortly.

I have Doug's wheels in my garage and I'm located in Copperas Cove...it's in the Killeen/Ft.Hood area. I'll be happy to show the wheels to any prospective buyers.

So if these could magically turn into late offsets, that'd be great!

Nope, the tires are still good (the rears are less than 2 years old) so I'm really not interested in dismounting them.

DOT codes, they're also two different sets. Just asking. GLWS!

Well then they were not new when I bought them, the fronts I knew were older but I definitely bought the rear tires from discount tire about 22 months ago. Apparently they had been sitting on their shelf for 2 years prior. They are still very much usable and I don't want to just toss them.

They'll fit an 86 perfectly, and I replied to your pm. I'm only about 4 hours south of you, It would cost you less to come pick them up, I will ship them though if you are willing to cover the cost.

if these don't shift by the 15th, I'll take them.
I'd need them to be shipped to Australia and am aware that shipping will be greater than the cost of the wheels.

If you're not able or willing to ship to Australia and demounting the tires (at your asking price), I'm happy to pay another member a handling fee and shipping.

Note: I'd pay today if I had the money available.

Fara I'd be happy to ship them to the moon, out of curiosity are a decent set of phonedials that hard to find on the other side of the pond? For you because of special circumstances, I'd consider dismounting them to save on shipping. I'd have to figure out what to do then with 4 tires lol.

The last quote I got for a set of reasonable condition phone dials was the north side of $800.
If you really want to get rid of the tyres, just turn up at Eagle Canyon Raceway on the 1st of march and I can guarantee someone will need/want those tyres

wow, 800 is steep. I know early offset turbo phones were only made for 1 year, and I could probably get more for these but I priced them to get rid of em. 800 is insane though. Yeah, I don't know, these are the only 16" rims I own so I'd just CL the tires I guess, no point in destroying them. I'm looking for an early NA to use as a DD and if I had one, these wheels would be going on it but alas I don't so...
