Your deal for used rims that are questionable for street use is pricey when you can get NEW Durani wheels for $1,100.

you are fucking full of shit! durani had not sold 1 fucking wheel yet asshole. you go ahead and believe that pie in the sky bullshit they are selling.
if you had a clue as to why reputable companies charge for wheels you'll see that durani aint done shit with regards to r&d.
mr durani also has been behind 2 major business failures as an executive operating officer.
let the man sell his quality wheels and stick your stupid head in a gullotine you sheep
marchisini has been around for 30+++ years
durani has yet to produce 1 wheel.

Questionable... yeah, in that they're wheels that were bought new 6 years ago by a member of this board, then sold with the bike to myself 4 years ago. Wheels from an established reputable manufacturer. Wheels that are 6 years old, ridden on for 10,000 miles with no issues, and have never been in any kind of accident or incident save for the powder coat being chipped and completely re-done.
Yeah, compared to wheels from a company I've never heard of, who have yet to sell a set to the public, therefore having no history of street use... yeah, compared with that, I can see how MY junk is "questionable" 
The fact is that several people have expressed interest in them enough, no matter how "pricey" or "questionable" they are, but seem to become disinterested when given the shipping cost.

Same ole story. Everybody wants them but nobody has any money. Since the prices of 12's and parts are bottoming they are spreading to a whole new market (most bang for CHEAP!). Now you no why I said fuck it and kept mine. Go price a set of new Marchasini's. 1000 shipped to your door is a good deal. A new set of RC's in polished alum. are 1600. PM's are even higher and still heavier alum. As far as "questionable for street use", give me a fucking break. I have had mine on for 3 years and 15000 miles and not one flaw. Potholes, blown wheelies and all. Still perfect and true. Rog checks'em every tire change with dial indicator.
Good luck Matt, still good deal!

thanks guys, I appreciate the good words
I'm afraid... that if they don't sell, it'll be my loopy reasoning to get another 12R, lol.
(there's a mint '00 green at my station for a good price, lol)

Just for the record....
My comments were geared to the quote below...
quote:
I've had atleast EIGHT people email or PM me about these. All saying something like "serious buyer, cash in hand, etc...". ALL of them will ask about shipping from me (85629) to them, which has run right around $45 to pretty much anywhere in the continental US. Then, NO replies after that.
I was NOT questioning the seller or the package. My decision not to buy was based on the AGE and Miles on the wheels and that they are Cast Mg. I sould have used "Not Recommened" instead of "questionable", my bad.

Yea I know. Matt is good people. I am touchy because I had a set of same on here with same results. I ended up putting a swap together but decided it just was not worth it. Just a shame that good 12R anything you cant hardly get rid of without giving it away. Still got your 12 psycho? Always liked that bike.
