There was a set on here not so long ago, Probably worth around £400-500 I would imagine.

Cheers

New ones are £610 on a group buy from GNJ??

I wouldnt pay half that for a 2nd hand set - sorry £300 would be my max estimation

Seconded  :happy2:

The group buy is for the VZ which are 8J and have a different offset finished in Silver....The Edition 30 pescara is a one-off colour which seems to be very hard to replicate, They are also 7.5J and a different offset.

when i got VZs about 18 months ago i tried to shift on my wheels. they're the Audi version of the Pescara. basically the same but silver instead of titanium and lightly higher offset - got £330ish for them with no centre caps, and they'd been on sale for quite a while. yours are in slightly better condition, mind but if it were my money i'd be saving for VZs (which is basically what i did in real life) and this devalues them

however considering that the Ed30 is a special edition car, i would strongly consider keeping them anyway. you'll need them come resale time if you want to get max value for your car. certainly if you sell in the next 2 years or so i'd imagine that not having the right wheels would devalue the car by more than the amount you get for the wheels, so it is a false economy. 

GLWS either way

i bought a set from here over 2 months ago with very good tyres for £600, so i think without tyres you should get around 300-500
