My new wheels arrive next week, and im wondering what to do with the old ones.

are they worth anything to sell, or are they best kept in garage for some reason?

I dont really want to keep them unless they are worthless

Worth putting in the classifieds. It depends what sort of condition they are in and what the tyres are like. I sold mine for £200 with some life left in the SP9000's and a bit of kerbing on one front wheel.

well, they are estorils, no kerbing at all, though the corners where the spokes meet, look dirty, may clean not sure?

the rubber on front are like new, rears need changing though id say

I'd gladly buy a spare rear off you.
Where abouts in the country are you?

If they're Estorils then yes, they will be worth something !! Probably a few hundred quid !!

I assumed you meant the Imolas. If they're Estorils I'd say between £450-600. A set has just sold from the PH classifieds for £575.

I kept hold of my old set for the possibility of a trackday. You would prob shag the rears in one track day and then not be legal to drive home. So worth keeping your good wheels for the road and the old set for occasional madness biggrin
