    THIS is a set of freshly refinished 355 Speedline Challenge rims. Tested and refinished by a highly reputable shop so no corners were cut. Rims are true and straight. These are the original lightweight Speedline rims from the late 90s, not the later heavier remakes. Lightweight and fashionable. This set could be yours for the market price of 6000$ plus shipping. Get them while you can, these are getting extremely rare to find.

    Safe to assume that the wheel centers come with the rims, since they appear to be still solidly attached?

    Buyer realized he had a few sets of these rare Speedlines in storage so they're still available. Price reduced to 5500$

    Certainly don’t need these, but could always use another spare set to hoard away.

    Are the wheel inserts installed in those photos? They were painted over? Also are the period correct centres included?

    How were these prepped for refinish? Were they stripped and properly coated as magnesium wheels require, before any of the paint process?

    I’m curious if these were truly refinished properly, if the refinisher was too lazy to remove the wheel inserts....

    I’ve purchased sets before that bubbled a year or two later because they were not prepped and finished properly, interested if you can elaborate further.

    These were refinished the proper way, stripped down and coated. Then refinished. Norwoods recommended the shop they use for all their magelnesium wheels. So I have no doubt in the quality of the work.

    The centers are not included and the wheel insterts were painted. I've had several sets refinished over the years and they're all the same.

    I'm honestly on the fence about letting these go. The best looking wheels for the 355 and light weight! Now you got me thinking about keeping em lol. You can't have too many challenge wheels can you?

    The answer is obvious, it’s the only reason why I inquired

    FYI to those who may be interested, I have a few sets of the correct Speedline decals (white, yellow & black) left over from a few refinish jobs. Would be willing to sell. DM me
