Realistically about £350 top dollar but if I were you I'd wack it on fleebay at 99p with a decent reserve and see how it plays out...

Nothing to loose except the ad fee and reserve cost...

hmm would have thought £350 for the wheel but would expect more with a brand new tyre fitted too

ALOT more - it took them 3 attempts to get a tyre on a rim without damaging the wheel - that 4 wheels they damaged!


i asked the manager and he said they have a 10% mark up so the wheels arent cheap even to dealers

Aren't they like £500 a wheel from the dealer? With a brand new tyre you've got to be looking at £450 at least?? :huh:

First things first...

I know there £500 odd a wheel new(I have them myself) lol

And yes in a idea world you cud get more but it's a buyers market out there and everyone's after a bargain, including ourselves..

I bought mine for £650 without tyres and they were brand new...I troll fleebay regularly and the shadows are becoming more and more available...

When I sold the Seattles which were without tyres I first started it at £300 but after a couple of days no interest so lowered it to 99p to hopefully get some bidders and walaaaaa they sold for just under £800..

But honestly mkviken stick it on eBay with a reserve and see how you go...

Sorry I am on my phone and it's very slow and I may have hit the post button twice. I would stick it on eBay and it's true value will be what you get I guess
