Craigslist "Deal of the Day" ???

guitarist982 · Mar 16, 2016

Found an ad on Craigslist this week for 4 SE beadlock beauty rings listed at $150. I thought surely he meant at least $150 a piece. Nope -- $150 for all 4. We went back and forth for a day and he said he had a guy blowing him up that wanted to meet an hour or two away so I offered him $180 and would meet him whenever/wherever. Sucker ... :everything:

So now the question begs - What to do??? Keep the OE ones I just had powder coated black and leave these for spares? Swap in the new SE ones? Sell them?? Give them away!!??

This is the second time this week I've seen killer deals for the trim rings. I can't imagine that they will stay this low when from the dealer they want over $700. But I guess the demand really isn't there.

I'd keep them for a spare. or have those powder coated a different color and change it up from time to time.

Nice find!

No that was the awesome deal you and I went on for the tires/SE wheels.

I was able to pick up four SE Rings later on for $400 so I have now I have a spare set when my current SE rings get messed up!

I saw your post on that when I was searching up and down to make sure I wasn't going crazy on the value before jumping on them.

I'm not entirely sure he knew what he was selling. He said he replaced them with the "heavy duty" ones which I'm assuming he meant the true beadlock rings from FP and went on to say that he "got pulled over a whole bunch for them because you know they're illegal in Texas, right?" lol :waytogo:

and then he traded in for a mid-2000s civic ...
