I have a set in very good condition, just one small flaw in the powder coating.

Probably unlikely. The only set on ebay are for sale at £2k. That's more than most sheds are worth!

Not really. Not 2nd hand, has to be dismantled, moved, put back up by the new owner. Much easier to buy a new one and let the company deliver and build it.

Whereas if you want some Estoril wheels at the moment, your choices are much more limited.

Mine are above Bill's budget, which with respect I feel is somewhat optimistic, but way way below 2 grand?

What's the realistic price of a set of 4 16" wheels?

OK, not exactly answering your question, but ....
I sold a set of 2 x 15" and 2 x 16" Estorils in February on an eBay auction.
They were in good condition and had tyres fitted. I don't think the tyres were great but I had been using them up till then.

They sold for £650

Crikey - I thought they'd be worth a lot more than that (like double), due to the scarcity factor.

Indeed, people sometimes talk up the value of something, optimistic sellers who are in no hurry to sell can advertise them for £2,000

I did not want to keep them lying around with all the other "stuff" that I have and believe that anything is only worth what someone will pay for it. Hence I sold them on eBay auction.

If I recall correctly the buyer actually only wanted the set to get the two 16" wheels.

For what it's worth, I bought my car with the Estoril's on it. They had been fitted by the previous owner.
I went back to the set of 4 16" Imola's that the car was originally supplied with.

I think 4 16" would be worth double the price of 2 15" and 2 16" .... I've gone 16" Imolas all round for Winter and 16" OZ split rims for Summer . I sold (got rid of ) the 15" wheels to a 'S' owners and they were happy smile

The last set that I bought for another car in 2017 were £400 with v.good matching Toyos. £2000.00 for a set of Estorils is quite a punt!, so what's the car worth that they came off then?

That ET doesn't sound right for a 15" front wheel (Estoril or Imola wheels). The rears are 35 but the original fronts are ET25.
