Title: Opinion on these wheels please.
Post by: mantahatch on 03 December 2008, 20:12:18
Could anyone give me an opinion and valuation of these wheels please.
http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=110320443120&_trksid=p3907.m32&_trkparms=tab%3DWatching

The seller is less than 2 miles from my house so picking up is very easy. What's a fair bid?

Thanks

Mike

Look like standard omega facelift wheels,tyres are worth a bit as have some miles left with that amount of tread,but as with everything in life..worth what somebody is prepared to pay but i have seen them go for £200 + for that style with half decent tyres..best of luck.

It doesn't look that much tread, almost down to the wear indicator on one, plus they are 2 different tread patterns so you don't want to mix them. The wheels look in good knick, so what are they worth to you?. Thats what you pay. As Xmas is coming up and people have to find lots of cash for presents you may get a bargain  :y :y :y

being local you'd be better asking to look at them, surely he cant object

they're facelift CDX alloys by the way, they're not fetching a massive amount these days so you should get for a good price, maybe less than £100

check for uneven wear which may mean immediate tyre change, could use as a bargaining tool!

The rims are the main thing. If close go & see for yourself. Pirellis are good boots( my 328i has them) but these are worn & mis matched. Point out to the seller you're really only buying the rims, shop for tyre prices, you only need good'uns if you drive hard & remind him his tyres are tired & nearly illegal. £200 seems fair. :y

Thing is they are taking up space, and if he needs the Dosh, then you could be lucky. I bought a soldering machine for £270 not long ago, in a recent sale a similar one went for over £800  :D :D :D

A handful of £5 does work  :y
