Set of (4) Forged 1-Piece Monoblock Rennen Monolicht M6 Concave Wheels; 24" x 10" +28mm Offset 6x139.7

 

-Wheels are Forged Aluminum and very light weighing in at 36 lbs. per rim. (This is about 10 lbs. +/- less than typical OEM GM 22" rims)

-Include (4) Matching Forged Machined Center Caps

-Include (4) GM OEM 315Mhz TPMS

-No Bends.

-No curb rash.

-Currently the wheels are finished in PVD Black Chrome;  However the PVD finish is failing/peeling on 2 of the 4 rims (see detailed pics).

 

 

Forged wheel companies offer many custom finishes on the wheels that they cut and machine.  Not all the finishes they offer are done in-house.  When I ordered the wheels straight form Rennen I wanted them in PVD Black Chrome.  They did not do PVD finishes in-house, but worked with companies that offerred it.  Rennen had the wheels PVD Black Chromed at a company called Wheel Creations PVD.  Therefore the PVD finish warranty was through them with Rennen facilitating the process.

 

The finish on 2 of the 4 wheels began to fail.  As luck would have it Wheel Creations PVC is no longer in business.  Therefore any finish warranty they offerred no longer exists either.

 

I only ended up riding on the wheels for barely a summer season before the finish began to fail and peel off 2 of the 4 wheels.  At the same time I ended up having an MRC shock that failed also and "locked up".  While driving on them I ran over something that should not have caused any wheel damage but because of the failed shock all the impact was absorbed by the wheel and bent one of the wheels.  The bent wheel has been fully straightened and repaired by a great wheel repair place local to me called Wheel Warehouse with Acu-Tru wheel repair system.  This rim was repaired and they ended up painting the inside and outside of the weel barrel matte black which you can see and identify in the pictures.

 

My initial plan was to get all 4 wheels stripped down to bare metal and have them refinished back to brand new.

 

Instead of having them refinished in some "insert color here" I thought maybe it would be better to offer them for sale as-is and the new buyer can choose to have them stripped and refinished in any color paint, powder, polish, or machined finish they want and make them their own.  Resulting in a brand new set of custom finished forged wheels!

 

Pricing can vary greatly to have the wheels stripped and refinished;  Mostly varying with whatever new finish or color the next owner would like to do.  I have gotten quotes ranging from $700-$1,200 +/- to strip and refinish the wheels.

 

Asking price is $2,500 OBO Plus Shipping.

Wheels are located in Fairborn, OH 45324.

Willing to drive and meet anyone within about an hour drive of where I'm located.

 

Feel free to DM me with any questions or offers.

I know forged wheels are not common on our platform due to their price point, but there are a lot of performance advantages with forged wheels when going to larger diameter wheels.

 

They're lighter than OEM 22" wheels, yet stronger.  Which means less rotating mass at each corner, less wear and tear on suspension and brake parts.

 

Is it the refinishing part and process that's more concerning than motivating?   I thought that would be attract more buyers of offering them at a discounted price with the option to have them refinished any way they want to suit their vehicle color and set up. 

 

Should I just refinish them myself and relist?
