I'm thinking about changing the wheels on my chim and to offset most of the purchase price of the new ones will be selling the current ones.
Question is how much for and whats the best way to sell?
Will I get more money selling the wheels individually or as a set and what sort of price should I be asking for in each case?
Tyres are very good condition with a fair amount of tread left and the alloys themselves are also very good.

cheers in advance
Tony

Sorry there's no market for those at all, you'll probably have to pay somebody to take them off your hands ... incidentally I'm in the market for a pair of 16x7.5 5-spoke rears if you fancy splitting them.

When you decide, post the link to the classified up (come on Al, bend the rules this once pleeeese?), I need multiple sets of TVR 5spokes for the racer, atleast one set of wets and a spare set of dry/inters.

Well at least I know theres a market for them (16's at least) but what sort of proces would people be prepared to pay for them both individually and as a set?
I was thinking around £130 each of £500 for the set. Would this be about right, over-priced or would I be able to get more?

I've paid £100 per wheel (mint) with a brand new (stickered) tyre on them...

If they're used but straight without any major scratches or scuffs, I would have thought the rims were worth about half that. Can't comment on the value of the tyres without knowing more about the make and condition, but for reference almost-new tyres are only worth about half the cost of the equivalent new tyre. But at the end of the day they're worth whatever you can get for them.
