FS: Ruf Speedline 17x8/9 wheels w/tires

[boxcarracer]

Selling my hard-to-find original Speedline wheels
I just had them refinished a few months ago and did less than 600mi on the setup

They come wrapped in Continental tires (205/50/17 and 255/40/17), one of the front tires has a chunk missing on it. This happened after I just put the tires on and lowered the car, only to learn that I should have rolled my fenders given my ride height. I've driven as-is with no vibrations whatsoever, but that tire should be changed.

The wheels are located in Montreal and are now SOLD


I took these pics in the evening and can take additional photos on request

I'd love to find a set of 9's and 10's (930 fitment) for something around that price...

I'd love to keep them as they are, IMO, the perfect wheels for these 911s and I also have an emotional attachment to anything Ruf.
However, my childhood dream car has now stolen my single garage spot and my trusty 911 will likely be gone by the end of the month. The new owner doesn't want these wheels

Good taste! I have a '85 in similar color (Slate Blue) with the same wheels and love them, I fall in love with the Speedline ruf wheels on NB 911 ever since my first 911, that's the only wheels I would install beside my Fuchs. This is a good deal for someone, I just spent $1200 to get them refinish, not to mention how much I paid for the wheels itself.

Thanks for the kind words!
As of this morning these wheels have been sold locally and have gone to their new owner.

I'm wondering the same thing, what is your dream car, my 911 is now my dream car, I can't imagine another car anymore. Plus I really want a set of those ruf wheels now.

[boxcarracer]

Here it is! Pic taken in the same spot as the 911 a couple of weeks ago.
Much less practical, much more tempermental...
When I was around 8yo I was walking in the paddocks of the Challenge series of the time and while I was peering inside a window of one of these cars, a mechanic tapped me on the shoulder and told me to hop in. I was so surprised by his small action that it stuck with me to this day. As I sat inside, in awe, I told myself that one day I needed to own one of these.
Let's hope my ownership will be as fun and will treat me as well as my aircooled 911s have. But who are we kidding, right?

[Jim2]

I think you just won.

Good story and outcome.

[stuttgart1]

Very nice, good choice!

You are two trees too far ahead!
