Selling: IPD springs, big brakes, 17" wheels/tires

Post by 1800ES »

I've removed several modifications that were on my 1996 850 wagon when I purchased it a couple weeks ago, as I'm looking for this car to be my snow car, not a performance car.

All these items are pretty heavy, so while I'm willing to ship, local pick-up is preferred. I will also be attending the Carlisle Import, Kit, & Replica show, May 18-20th, so if you want to wait until then, I will be happy to bring any items you purchase with me to the show, so you can pick them up there.

Please PM me here if you are interested. Thanks for looking!

1. IPD Lowering springs, front and rear: Asking $150.
IPD's site indicates these will fit 1993-1997 850, 1998-2000 S70/V70 and 1998-2004 C70. The paint has cracked off at the tops and bottoms of the springs, but they are in otherwise very good condition.

2. Big brakes (front): Asking $150.
These are 302 mm ATE front rotors and the mounting brackets required to relocate your stock calipers. The rotors show almost no wear, so I can only assume they have not seen many miles since the previous owner installed them. Judging by the slot pattern on the rotors, I believe these are part of the kit that FCP sells. According to their site, it says these will work with 16" and larger wheels, but they DO NOT fit with the 16" Persus wheels that came on my car originally, so some 16" wheels may fit, but mine certainly did not.

3. 17" wheels and tires: Asking $500 for wheels and tires.
Set of four 17" MSW Type 16 wheels (including centering rings) shod with 215/45/17 Yokohama AVID H4S. These are black wheels with a red accent stripe. The wheels are in very good condition. Two of them have a small bit of curb rash. The tread on two of the tires is 8/32". The other two are at about 6/32". I do have additional pics of the wheels if you are interested in additional close-ups.

This is a close-up of the worst bit of the curb rash; about 3/8" long.

And here is a picture of my car with all of the above mentioned bits installed before we removed them, so you can see how they look on a car:

Just a little update. Happily, the 302mm front rotors and caliper brackets are the last bits of my de-modding process that are still for sale.

If you're curious/concerned about the condition of the rotors, I can tell you this... The rotors have not begun to develop even the faintest hint of a lip around the edge of the rotor. The face of both rotors is completely smooth all the way out to edge.
