Up for sale is a set of SSR SP1 Professors, 18x8.5, black centers with polished lips. They are ET43 offset and weigh about 22lbs each. I purchased these from Tirerack in 2005 right before they stopped selling them. They are in immaculate condition and look as good as the day I put them on my car. They have a few nicks and rock chips if you look very closely, but nothing I was able to capture with my camera. I have only run them in the summer months, and they were stored in my basement during the winter.
They come with Kumho Ecsta MX tires, 225/40/18 all around. The tires have approx. 2/32" tread left on them.
Price FURTHER reduced to $1500 local pickup in CT, $1600 shipped anywhere in the US.
Here are some photos, don't mind the horrid yellow grass:

Who still sells this wheel in 5x120 BMW fitment?
Edit: looks like they are available from Vividracing at $600+ per wheel. Thanks for the info, I thought these had been discontinued.

You can still buy them but they are custom order aka EXTREMELY expensive. ($650 per wheel)
I have a set, and I don't think I can let go of them just yet. :) Bump for you.

Hmm, those articles are 4 years old. I remember hearing they were restructuring, so maybe it is complete by now.

These rims are rare, had to wait over 4 1/2 months for mine to come in custom from the SSR factory in Japan.
Are you willing to sell the centercaps separate?

Not at this time - I would rather sell the wheels and caps together. Guys, price has been reduced to $1700 pickup, $1800 shipped.

I have the same exact set of wheels (except that they are silver) that I haven't even put on my car. They look fantastic in person, but are a little on the heavier side. Your wheels look in excellent shape, and so are mine. :) Goodluck with your sale!
