Default Is $400 fair for wheels?

I'm having a 245 shipped down from portland and the seller has wheels available too. The ones that came on the tubo's - 5 spoke. Cant remember the name.

he said $400 with tires. not sure how good the tires are.

What you think? jump on it - or can I get better deals?

This would include tax and shipping (since theyre coming with/inside of the car)

Good shape, not curbed or bent, I would think so. The Venators on my 80 are $450 each

do have your tire guys check them for straightness... if one or two are a little out of round, put them in back, and try and find replacements. a warped rim up front sucks.


ps: re names. see http://home.blarg.net/~volvo242gt/wheels.html
turbo 5 spokers on a 240 could be Virgo or Draco, both 15". on a 7xx/9xx, might be Hydra 16" (thats what I have on my 745T, but I think they'd look 'wrong' on a 240).
