I have a staggered set of 17x8" and 17x9" Desmond Regamaster Marquis Promadas for sale. Originally 5x114, they've been redrilled to 5x120. Center bore is 72.4mm as well.
They are currently wrapped in Dunlop Star Specs, 215/45 front, 235/40 rear. The tires have about 2k miles, over 90% tread left. Willing part tires from wheels or sell as package.
Now about offsets...
Offsets were originally ET 35 front, ET 38 rear but are currently unknown and out of whack, which brings me to the only caveat against these wheels. All four wheels in this set are now straight, true and balance perfectly, but it took some work to get them this way.
Three of the wheels had varying degrees of lateral runout when I received them. Here's a clip that explains it (skip to 0:44, application is for brakes but you get the idea) http://youtu.be/dMp5G9J1P48?t=44s. To correct them they each had to have their hub surfaces machined to varying amounts and angles to match the disposition of their barrels, and that consequently raised the offsets by however much metal was shaved from each wheel.
So one 17x9" wheel is still ET 38, but between the other three wheels the new offsets are roughly anywhere from 3 to 7mm higher than what they used to be.
Physically and cosmetically the wheels are in great shape. One of the front wheels has a very light rash, maybe 2 inches long, and there are a couple of other extremely small chips and gouges along the lips of the other three, but there is no other damage to any of them. They're all straight and true and balance perfectly well as I mentioned earlier. They have also been resprayed in silver last year by the previous owner with a particular type of wheel paint (supposedly very high quality, the name escapes me) and the finish is still in very good shape.
Wheels - $1200 + shipping
Tires - $450 + shipping
Package (as is) - $1500 + shipping
** To anyone interested in just the wheels: I can have the hubs shaved so that each pair, front and rear, have matching offsets and have it measured at no additional cost, for my full asking price.
