What are those black marks near the lug holes on the leftmost ones? Chips? Or just dirt/grease? If nobody pounces on these, I'm still interested (I've been a bit out of touch due to work + holiday travel, and a bit spend-shy due to the looming engine-replacement bill which is climbing past $6000, grr). Hmm, what's the expiration date on Skarecrow's "winter wheel color-change special"? =)
Also: can I safely assume no bends? I made the mistake of judging my current set by their lack-of-curb-rash, and after getting them sandblasted, powdercoated, and new tires mounted, found out that one of them is BENT. (That sucked.)
