Looking to see if there would be anyone interested in swapping a decent Monza II for a marked Monza II - for £99.  Saves you the time and inconvenience of going without a wheel for a few days, you get one exactly the same as the others.

The story is my car came with the Monza II's which I have replaced but kept the wheels for when I sell the car, now unfortunatley the previous owner managed to mark 3 of the wheels so I am looking to get these refurbished but to avoid having any differences I would prefer to get all 4 done but this is a waste if 1 is ok - so I could swap the decent one for a marked one and then get all 4 done so there is no risk of any colour matches - makes sense ....

The options I suppose is keep to put back on, sell as is or sell reconditioned - Q's are...
How much are they worth now .. £400 ?
How much are they worth reconditined (as new) ...  £1500 new, say £750 ?

Whats do you guys think?

Based on E-bay prices I'd say that WITHOUT ANY TYRES, you'd get something like :

Worth now ........................... £260-£320         (depending on severity of scuff -I've seen a quite a few individual scuffed ones go for around £65-£80, so x 4 = £260-£320)

Worth reconditiioned (as new) : £500-£600 max

I will get a pic as soon as I can - Based in Derby.

So say they are worth 280 (approx) now - makes me wonder if its worth it. Might be better of just getting them painted !
