Looking at selling my genuine 18" inch Monza rims off my mk5 gti. 2 have a little curb rash and the other 2 are in mint condition. How much should I be asking for each wheel? £100 a rim? Or more?
Thanks

I got rid of mine for £150 all 4 :signLOL: the guy that sold me the car curbed the sh*t out of them so had to get rid of it and buy myself some new rims.

Considering that it costs £100 per wheel to get rid of the white worm, they're not worth much. Simply because it just comes back after a year if you go for the diamond cut finish.
I was considering buying two Monzas but I'd rather just wait until the summer and buy some BBS rims. Unless you're offloading two at a good price :laugh:
-
Ok cheers guys

I sold mine for £600 with decent tyres, refurbished in Audi titanium (£200 for the refurb of all 4 because I'd given the refurb guy a fair bit of business).

^ This. They're just not suited to UK road conditions. A mild/warm Mediterranean climate where they don't use grit on the roads is where they should be.

Not sure about this :confused: the back rims have been on the car 12 years and are in mint condition

You must have a secret, because even the wheel refurbishers that I went to said it won't last over a year.
When they're finished in one colour, i.e., powdercoated, they'll last as long as any other alloy.
This and the fact diamond cutting is so expensive really drops the value of a wonderful alloy.

I sold mine with no tyres for £200 and that was a struggle.

Mine are going up for about £150 once I've found something to replace them with.
They've previously been painted though.

Just sold the 4 for £380

Good price, did that include tyres?

No just rims

Excellent. Luck of the draw then I suppose :surprised:

I thought it was a fair price tbh. The rims are in good condition and are genuine.

No idea how you managed that to be honest, they aren't worth that without tyres.

Depends on how much you're asking and how much someone is willing to pay for them.
£200 £300 ? put them.up for what they are going for in ebay or a little cheaper.
I was selling some wheels and the guy came to Birmingham from Southampton. 18inch genuine RS4 alloys curbed to crap for £120 tyres bald as how i purchased them but didnt get around to getting um refurbed as i found a cheap set of deep dosh one a couple of months later so anyway the guys came offered me a pathetic price and I said no. two weeks later they sold for £175 Plus £45 shipping + £20 drink so can't be bad now can't it :smiley:
