Default **Wanting to Trade**

I know it'll be a long shot but I'm looking for someone to trade my 20" Gyrodynes in silver for their 20" Tornados in black or 20" Gyrodynes in the black diamond finish. My wheels are in pristine condition and I would expect the same for the wheels being traded.

I am willing to cover the labor to swap tires and if necessary TMPS sensors. I'm located in Orange County but willing to go to LA and San Diego Counties

I agree, it's a long shot. I think getting them painted might be the way to go if you don't like the silver and want a darker finish. I have the black diamond but am tempted to get them painted darker...

If you're serious, I'd rather not let a set of the painted Gyrodynes go to waste! I'm happy to trek up the Bay Area and do a swap!

hmm..interesting...I am serious, but I'm also kinda lazy :-) What might work is something like this

- I figure out what/how I want the wheels painted...
- you paint them in SoCal
- we meet somewhere in the middle to do the swap...

I have no idea how much the painting/powder coating will cost..but I think the black diamond gyrodynes are an extra $1000 option, so that could equal out the painting/powder coating. In terms of full disclosure, I blew out 2 right side tires a while back, with some small damage (you can search for the post). I had the dealer redo the wheels and they look great to me, but yes, they have been fixed. LMK if this sounds like something worth pursuing, or too much hassle. I still need to figure out exactly what/how I want to do the wheels (color/finish)...

I'd gladly swap but I only have the 20" cyclones in silver.
