Hi,

Just wanted to know what you think a fair price should be for a full set of immaculate refurbed 18" x 8" Spiders without rubber?


Thanks

Rich

I'd say minimum £300.

If you could accompany the buyer to take them away & get them tested for buckles etc.., they could realise up to £600.

That's my two penneth smile

£500.00 that's what I sold mine for, they where refurbed gloss black powdercoat looked good,considering the refurb cost £200.00 I got £300.00 for them, a little cheap maybe.

all those that come on ebay seem to go for over 700quid. Considering i've just booked mine in for a refurb and colour change at 240quid I think if you can get a set at 500 you have a bargain!

Stuff like this doesn't help of course.

I have been though seven spiders now. One was a brick that came off a lorry, one cracked. The rest were just the wheels going out of true with wheel refurbs saying they would only straighten them if I signed a declaration they would not be used on the road.

I now have a set of the wheels above for emergencies and trackdays bought for £100 off ebay and they are spotless with brands new eagle tyres on.

I sold my straight but needing a refurb spiders a couple of months back for £350, which was the 'going price' at the time smile
