Ahoy, GMC Folks,
I have six (6ea) 16’ -- round holes GMC -- Alcoa wheels which have maybe fifty miles on them, in perfect condition, with no curb rash, but need polish. The proper 'shouldered/washered' lug nuts are included (@$4.79 ea). Five Alcoa caps, and (40+) stainless nut covers are included.
There are six NOS tires mounted, ~~ eight years old, but with no cracks/rash. Never very hot here -- your call if you want to keep the tires for the four trailers. I'd not install them on the front.
My 23'GMC coach is now sold, less the wheels. Going to a good home.
Best $$$$$ offer.
Prefer that you come here to Carmel, CA, and get them, but if you want them shipped, I can do that on your $$$, and your arrangements. I’ll of course take them a reasonable distance to a shipping point. Probably best if the tires are then not included. I called a tire/wheel company, and I can get some cheap/free wheel boxes if you are not in a hurry.
BTW, you can check me out on ebay under rhbelter -- w -- 400 + feedbacks @100%

Have these wheels been checked if they are in one of the "recalled wheel" groups? If they are in the recall, that would take care of the polishing...

Ahoy, GMC Folks, and especially Mike.
Mike, THANK YOU THANK YOU THANK YOU!!!!!
I did not know of the Alcoa wheel recall, and it appears that (one checked, so far -- p/n 160231) that they ARE recall wheels!!!
That is a marvelous deal for you wheel bidders/buyers, because they will be NEW wheels, and include lug nuts and five caps/nut covers. I'll follow-up when I know more.
Enjoy /s/ Bob

Ahoy, GMC Folks --- AGAIN:
And --- The divil is in the details.
These wheels are included in the recall part numbers, but were manufactured well after the recall cut-off date, so they are OK.
So -- Not to be new wheels after all, but still nice.

Ahoy, GMC 'Wheelie Folks'
LOTTSSSAAAA interest in these wheels, and I have acceptable offers.
With the wheels now off the GMC, and a careful inspection, the 50 mles is believable, because there is NO scrape or curb-rash on any wheel. There are rust ring mark-off where the lug nuts fitted, and I polished one of them a bit, and it cleared up -- not easily, but OK. They HAVE been out in the weather for ~~ eight years.
I'll take the best offer by Saturday noon (Pacific) 26 Jan, and contact the 'winner'. Winner free to come 'look/pay/take' or walk-away with no hard feelings or cost. Next one 'up', same deal. If I have to ship them, your $$$ and you can return them for a refund less $100 for the hassle.
Enjoy /s/ Bob
