FS: Rare JDM Rays Engineering Texan Shot Guns (16x7) - Toyota Yaris Forums

Thirty-Nine · 07-23-2007, 05:56 PM

These are Rays Engineering Texan Shot Guns. They are 16x7, +37 offset, 4x100 (and 5x100). They are a forged two-piece wheel that I've restored. They arrived in not-so-great condition. I disassembled them, had the chrome stripped off of them, and had them professionally polished by Oregon Plating in Portland, OR. I polished all of the rivets, too. I then reassembled them.

They wheels are shod with 205/50/16 Yokohama AVS ES100 tires with probably 60% tread still.

The centercaps are bit faded and have some scratches. There are a few very minor hairline scratches in the wheel faces, but they will easily buff out (the wheels are not clear coated so polishing will be much easier). There are two rivets missing total (two wheels are missing one each). One rivet on the other two wheels is glued on, however, I was told by a professional wheel shop that they are still perfectly fine to drive on. I'm sure you could find a replacement fastener, too. Finally, the Rays labels on the inside of the barrels has mostly peeled off. However, the word "RAYS ENG" is stamped into the face of each wheel -- these are the real deal.

There is no curb rash and all of the wheels are straight and track great. I've put about 1,000 miles on these rims, and about 15,000 miles on the tires (if that).

I'm asking $1,200 or best offer + PayPal. Local sale (OR, WA) much preferred, but will ship if necessary at buyer's expense. No trades.

Thanks for looking!

The centercap on the left does has a decent size scratch ...

Those were made in 1994?

Thirty-Nine · 07-23-2007, 06:27 PM

Yes, Sir. Why do you ask?

brickhardmeat · 07-23-2007, 06:28 PM

Those wheels are soooo kick ass.

39, you selling the box for a Yaris?

Thirty-Nine · 07-23-2007, 06:52 PM

That's the plan.

ChinoCharles · 07-23-2007, 06:54 PM

These would look sick on a blue or white Yaris!

yes they would, only if I had serious blow money, which I don't

Thirty-Nine · 07-23-2007, 07:00 PM

I hope to sell these and buy some Tein Basics for the Yaris when my xB gets sold.

$13,500. It's got Tein S-Techs, H&R 15mm TRAK Spacers, and a CravenSpeed short shifter. I've got some other parts, too but I was going to sell them outright.

Well, they are forged, so they're not as heavy as you'd think.

tca4 · 07-24-2007, 04:20 AM
