wtt 18" ss/sc wheels for 17"

Like it says i want to trade my set of ss/sc rims for 17"
this trade would consist of just rims no tires, the lug pattern has to be 5x110( obviously)
i'll take any rim, g5, ss/na, hhr, saturn redline.

is it something that a grinder can grind down and smooth it out or is a giant chunk missing? i have no problem with scuffs on the rim as i can grind them out and repaint them.

they can be grinded down, no chunks really. the only problem I face is that I need tires for the rims as I will be giving you my 4 aftermarket Yokohama tires and I can even throw in 2 more perfectly good tires (the stock pirelli's) if you can somehow find some tires to go with the 18's.

Are you doing it for better ride quality. If so the 17 rims do ride very firm. I've never driven with the 18 inchers so maybe they are a lot more comfortable.

well i have tires for the 18's its just that they maybe have like half a year left on them... i have 6 tires...just two of them had a wobble to them maybe it was just the rims needed to be balnaced. if you wanted to trade i could meet you hafl way or something cuz i live in nj and it would be retarted to ship...i'd rather take the drive...LOL. as for the reason i want 17's is cuz i auto x alot and i want a smaller little bit lighter wheel.. plus r-compound tire selection is alot easier then 18's. let me know what you wanna do.

K here's what I can do, I'll give you my 4 best tires on the wheels and ship and you do the same, check shipping first. If its less than 50 let's do it but if not I'll have to get back to you. PM me or whatever. But im definitely willing to do this.

It's not going to be less than $50 to ship. I just had someone on here quote me a price for shipping tires/wheel set from NJ to Detroit, and it was $138. Maybe Atlanta is cheaper, but I doubt it. Just FYI.

Ok I guess all we can do is find out how much it will be...I'll check fedex and ups by me. You do the same... like the other guy said I think its gonna be more then 50....anyway one of the tires has a bubble so I only have 1 extra tire to give you with the ones that are on the rims.

EDIT**
Think I'm just going to keep the 17's and paint them black or Gunmetal, don't feel like killing my performance with 18's, sorry man =/
