Title: Pescaras 18"
Post by: scooba on February 06, 2011, 06:34:22 pm

What are they worth ?. I have a set that came with the car i bought last june , I fitted  a new set off Michelin pilot sport 2 tyres they have covered 2000mls.

Do i split the tyres and sell seperate or do i refurbish the rims back to oem grey.what are they worth  as they are two have small marks the garage touched up  two they had there wheel man sort they look very good .

What could I get if i send them to be refinished and refit the tyres £800 ? or do i take £600 as they are  or could i get £400 for the rims and £75 per tyre

Just realised i dont need two sets ,I have a new set with Pilot sport 3 in my garage waiting to roll

Iv seen a few sets go on ebay with quality tyres 5-6mm tread not perfect condition but not battered either for around the £650 mark.

I would say if your were all refurbed then you might get £750-£800 if your lucky.

I forgot about it  :sad1: I was just interested in the rims not tyres
But by time I have paid courier and then the refurb
It wouldn't be worth it! I was giving you a bit of advice on what the rims are going for :happy2:
