View Full Version : A Set of American Eagle wheels

OK, I have a set of four 15x10 American Eagle Series 117 wheels (similar design to what John [2000 xlt] is selling) that I need to get rid of. Click here (http://www.aewheel.com/wheels_detail.cfm?id=27) to see what they look like.
They've NEVER been mounted and are still in the original boxes. They are in brand-spanking new condition
I've had them over a year, and it's high time they go bye-bye, and plus, I could use the dough to get a set of Ultra Wheels (http://www.ultrawheel.com/wheel_detail.cfm?brand=1&id=41) that I really want.
Once again, the size is 15x10 and the bolt pattern is 5 by 4.5 (the pattern of a Ranger, or a Jeep Wrangler). They're pretty wide, so they would be better for those who run a fairly good size tire (i.e. 35" or more)
I'll probably try on E-Bay sooner or later, but figured I'd try here first.
If anyone is interested, or knows someone that might be interested, just shoot me an E-Mail at Jcmichalik2@yahoo.com , and/or just post here.

P.S. Anyone know of any 4-wheel shops or tire shops that sell/deal in Ultra Wheels (http://www.ultrawheel.com) by chance?

oh man, if only they weren't 15x10. I love those wheels. I would be all over those if they were 15x8 or even 15x7

Yeah they are sweet looking wheels. Had I got the correct width, they would've been mounted long ago...but noooo....
That or if I already had lifted my truck enough to put 35s on, then I would've used the size I have now...but again, noooooo....
Theres bound to be SOMEONE out there that would like to get them. Heck, They would fit on Jeep Wranglers, because of the bolt pattern being just like Rangers/Explorers, and I know that a whole lot of people with Wranglers usually lift them.
Then again, maybe someone that does plan on putting 35+ tires on their Ranger/Explorer will come across this and want them...who knows really...
All I know is that I could use the money I get with these could help get the wheels I currently have my eye on made by Ultra Wheel (click on "Ultra Wheels" up top in my previous post).
I'll keep this "ad" going for awhile on here...maybe I'll get lucky...and if I get nothing from here, looks like I'll have to use trusty ol' EBay.
*crosses fingers* Here's hoping they sell soon....

By the way, I'm not going to ask for much from these wheels. I originally paid pretty close to $800, but I'll be selling them for at most 1/2 that, maybe less, or a reasonable offer is given....
It's either that or EBay (which is probably a better idea)
Either way, I just need to get these wheels outta here...
If I had anything that could run that bolt pattern, I'd be all over it. 15x10 would be perfect for a nice set of 33x12.5 15s

I'd say Dom might be interested in them for his Jeep Cherokee (same bolt pattern), but I think he paid less for the Jeep then the wheels cost, LOL!

:lol: Heh thats pretty funny!
I plan running 33s down the road, but 15x10 still may be much. 15x8 should be just right (IMHO) to put 33s on (once I get my lift, gears, etc. done).
Heck if you know anyone with a Jeep, or whatever fits that pattern, and they want a set of brand-new, and very cheap 15x10 wheels, send them my way.
I'm going to be putting them on EBAY probably sometime next month if nothing happens here.
I get to looking at my other posts, and boy do I sound desperate :P It's not a big deal really. I'm in no hurry to get them out. Eventually they'll be gone, just got to give it time. If anything, they sure do make GREAT paperweights though...

I'll have to do that...
Although the wheels that I'm interested in (look exactly like the Ultra Wheels that I want to get) only seem to come in a 15x9, which is a tad too wide. Guess I'll try and ask to see if they offer it in an inch shorter width, and not to mention my bolt pattern, AND whether they have open-ended center caps for the front.
Thanks Dave
