WANTED: Stock 16" KK wheels

Mr Nick · **Posted:** Sat Nov 21, 2009 11:00 pm

Looking for stock KK wheels with tires in Chicago area, willing to trade my Eagle Alloys and General Grabber AT2's plus some cash. Thought I'd post in this forum, instead of For Sale/Wanted, because I only want KK wheels.

Thanks,
Nick

May I inquire as to why you want to get ride of your wheels?

Might be selling the Jeep.

I'd rather trade it in "as is" for good deal on my next car... I had CarMax look at it, and the offer they game me was rediculous. They said closer to stock the better, and would be worth more. Big tires and any suspension modifications kill the value, in their eyes.

I'm tempted to sell it myself, but I'd hate to have 2 car payments while I try to sell the Jeep.

I'm looking for a Magnum or Charger (Hemi only) for the next car. The Liberty is great, but I simply need a fast car. I never did take it wheelin' this year, and even if I do go a couple times a year in the future, just not worth the daily compromise of owning a slow vehicle.

I'll also be selling my K&N intake for sure. Possibly the Revtek lift kit too, if I put it all back to stock.

NO

I like the Charger and Magnum but over the years they have become the car of the hommies. My vote would be for a Challenger 5.7 or 6.1SRT or the Cherokee SRT8.

lol, where I work I see that "style" of modified car quite often... but I don't hang out in the area I work, so I'm not worried about that.

I'd love a new Challenger, but I don't want my payment to go up, and I owe about what the Jeep is worth (depending on trade in value of course) so I don't think that will happen.

I wish you were closer. I'd just straight trade with you.

I had a charger... its a GOOD comfy FAST, mean looking car
But its terrible... why?
There are A LOT (and I mean A LOT) of possible mods for the car.... and youll want them all... bad for the wallet!
Gas mileage: While the charger has good gas mileage I dare you to TRY and keep your foot of the accelerator....
SIZE: Have you driven one? forget about narrow parking spots! and forget parking next to a minivan... this thing is HUGE (as well as every other LX platform based car)
Form Factor: ITS AWESOME... but like someone else stated: "Hoomie rollin car"
So basically thats it
Do an informed decision, go to www.chargerforums.com and if possible look for a member selling their car, these guys take better care of their car than they take care of themselves (really, I was one of them). While there, check for possible issues the cars had on the year you are looking for.

And thats about it.

Ohh and by the way:
Here we have Digger: A good Mod who is not an stupid...
Over there you have a14umbra, a middle aged "Mr Wilson" kind of mod who is a pain in the butt

I really like fast semi-luxury cars, I had a 1995 Mark VIII for a couple years, great car besides the cruddy headlights and transmission problems.
I do mostly highway driving, so gas mileage should be ok. I don't mind "paying" for the poor mileage if it's because I have a fast car.
My brother in law has the Charger RT AWD, I've drove it a few times. I hate parking lots, and I always park about 5 spots into the empty section of the lot anyway.
I've also already signed up on www.LXForums.com to do research and look for some. I'll try the site you suggested as well.

LOL probably not nearly as bad as yours. Our corporate office is in Green Bay, and I know they get hit much harder with snow and lower temps then we do.

Well, if you're gonna go Charger get my fav: The SRT-8 version. I just love that car. Although, I saw one today on the way back from the airport... Dude was driving like an stupid in a full-on rain storm. :roll:

Anybody? If all goes well with my loan, I'm headed to Albuquerque next week to pick up my next daily driver.

Did you end up getting stock rims? Did you sell or trade? Selling any parts? Just wondering, if you might have them lying around, taking up garage space. Good luck with the new ride.

Mr Nick · **Posted:** Sat Dec 12, 2009 8:09 pm

Car is actually in Phoenix but the seller is a very cool guy, and meeting me in Albuquerque to save me some driving time headed home. We are going to take 40 through Oklahoma City. I think he has high performance tires on it, so I'm going to avoid Colorado. If it was summer, then I'd probably go through CO and spend a day in Denver.

I'll be selling my K&N intake, the hitch (installed but never used), and still trying to trade wheels and tires. Then possibly sell the lift kit, but I'll need stock UCA's because the JBA arms I have on there won't work on stock ride height.

Oh by the way... 2006 Dodge Magnum SRT8

100,000 miles, but I have FULL maintenance records for it and for $12.5k even if it needs some work it's still a killer deal.
