700k for what? How much are the tyres? Are the rims encrusted with diamonds?

I haven’t seen diamond encrusted rims before but I haven’t searched.

Alloy rims have less load bearing capacity than steel ones.

Wrong.

They’re stronger and lighter than steel.

A lot of scepticism about the stated price tag for wheels/tires here.

The figure could just be for the wheels, or could include other charges.

Don't just assume that things don't exist because you haven't come across them.

There are high end wheels, mid range and Low quality wheels, then of course there are knockoffs.

Vossen or BBS easily cost way more than the quoted figure, never mind their high performance status.

Rims and wheels are technically not the same

These are some of the side effects of our poor economy.

They’ve decimated the middle class.

Thought I was the only one who saw it. Anyways I don't know the car type and the tyre type or rim type. After all one plot of land in banana island is #400million while in general it is between 1 to 5 million naira.

Hope the naysayers are sitting down.

This is for a 2015 Honda Accord, tires and rims are available for up to $5,000 = N1,750,000 plus shipping grin

Proof attached.

Please note that this is even cheaper closeout/clearance price cheesy

I've seen and read about the first picture on many other forums, kind of old news already.

I'm still not convinced that the rims shattered as alleged. It is my opinion, and of others that I trust their automotive opinions, that this was an after effect of a crash. Not the cause.

That being said, "good rims bend, bad rims break".

I was approached by an offline potential client who wanted tires/rim. I quoted N700,000 and I promptly never heard back from him grin

If you value your life, just stay with your existing factory rims. The factory did extensive testing on them and they are safe. Nothing good comes cheap.

But you wicked sha. How much is a whole car that you're selling only tyres plus rims 700k?

I live in the USA so my reference points are US based.

I ship things that are more expensive than that to Nigeria almost monthly and there are no payment plans. You’re just not in the demographics of quality seat purchasers.

Don’t worry, keep hustling and your time will come when you can afford what you really want and not what you can find.

Good luck.

you don't live in the USA, you have a buyer and you can't close a deal with him due to your over-the-top price and that's the main issue , you are not a business man. I doubt you ever make any sales . go back to the market and check prices of rims .

I didn’t compromise on my standards of delivery.

I’ll pass on your suggestion of local market research if you don’t mind. I’ve posted samples of wheel packages that cost over N1.5M and you’re still crying over N700K grin

Not that it matters but I’ve been living in the US for most likely longer than you’ve been alive.

egghead.. continue exalting your failures, you can never make any sales with your petty thievery, you claiming to live in the U.S importing rims of 1.5m is just as stupid as you are, shows how foolish your sales are , i continue to bet you that you cannot make any sale, amateurs claiming business potentials. probably end up with his fraudulent traits and shiits. continue dreaming with that price.

Why are you so agitated? Why are you cursing?

You’re so dazed with your emotions running away that you’re now making up stories grin

Don't limit yourself, one day the sun will shine for you and you’ll be able to buy and enjoy the finer things in life.

Like I said I earlier I don't compromise on my service delivery and I cater to a select group of clients. I'm happy to refer you to Owode Onirin or better yet to stick with your stock wheels.

One day you'll also be able to afford the finer things in life. Hope you're having a nice Sunday.

First Pic:

These are HRE and the seller is asking $1,800 for a used set grin

$1,800 = N630,000 and remember that this is a used set. Imagine how much they are new.

Second Pic:

Moto wheels and seller is asking $2,000 = N700,000

I'm using a conservation exchange rate of 350 and shipping and handling is not included.

Third Pic:

Arachnid wheels, not only used but has curb rash

Seller is asking $2,650 = N928,000

Moral, stay with your stock factory wheels if you can't afford to buy original aftermarket safe wheels from companies that are knowledgable.

Okay, so please show to the audience how I've defrauded you.

Where have I claimed that I sold any wheels for N1.5M? The jokes on you wink

You'll keep asking and I'll keep responding that I owe you nothing.

PS: I'm not your friend. No offense meant.
