Getting a deal on wheels-with opinions
 

So my local parts yard has a 2002 Legacy Outback that is totaled about the only salvageable part are the wheels. I can get the set of 4 with tires for $150.00 like these http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/16-Su...QQcmdZViewItem
But the sad part about this story is 2 people were killed in this car (drunk driving) and feel a little aprehensive about the purchase. Im sure in the past Ive bought parts off of cars that people were killed in but really didnt think twice about it before now. What do you think?

The wheels you showed were only 6.5" wide.
They are not wide enough for a SVX.
Great price, but forget them and move on.
I have been looking on E-bay and everywhere else, and so far the best deal has been with Dayle at Motorsports Warehouse.
My problem is that I need at least 8" wide 17", and I want lightweight/forged for cheap!:o
As far as the moral issue of buying wheels from a "death car".....
A set of wheels is not the "heart of the car", its a commonly replaced and upgraded part, northing more.
I once bought a Honda 750 Interceptor from the father of a guy who screwed up and centerpunched a tree, head first in a cheap polycarbonate $29.95 helmet....
My good friends witnessed the event, and held him as he died.


The father pressured me to buy the bike so he would not see it everyday.

I rode it, kinda fast, my little brother(Mike Krynock) raced it REALLY REALLY FAST!!!
It ran fine, and lived on.

Im getting these for my Legacy and he has another set for the SVX for $100 in good shape:D

Go for it. The wheels are NOT haunted and they won't bring you bad luck. Unless, of course, the guy hit a black cat that caused the wreck!

I hope you aren't looking to get these wheels for the SVX... 5x100 bolt pattern won't fit nomatter how wide the wheel is or isn't...
