Wanted: complete set of wheels

I"m in need of a complete set of wheels...it's ok if they need to be refurbished but I don't want a set that is flaking with rust or bent up. Hubs, brake plates, rims, front and back. I can blast and paint them. I recently did a trade with someone on a set, but the rims were unusable, and the hubs were beyond corroded to the point of the aluminum being dimpled in places. Really bummed out about that. My project is done other than needing wheels, so looking for something immediately.

I'm assuming you're talking CT70 wheels. There's plenty on ebay but pricing is around $100-150 per wheel, some have hubs as well. You might find better deals locally on craigslist or offer up to save shipping. I bought a pair of new chinese chrome rims on ebay and they are high quality, look great and run straight and true and were well under $200 for the pair shipped.

Thanks. I'm seeking original equipment on this...if not, I can live with a front and rear hub and front backing plate and find a set of aftermarket hoops.

ctkidd is one the better sellers on Ebay. He is one of the only sellers that actually describe the condition accurately and thoroughly.
The way it used to be... I have purchased several parts from them and was never disappointed.

I haven't seen a lot from that seller in a while, used to have parts all the time.

I was fortunate in that someone I sold some parts to in the past and that I helped work through some things offered me a complete set of wheels for free plus ship. Hard to pass that up. So, i have these in possession now and am in the process of restoring them. Thanks for all the leads.
