rtbiscuit Posted January 2, 2012 Posted January 2, 2012 Just wanted some feedback from others to see if they come out around the same as me, so that i know that i'm not taking the pi$$. My old S2000 wheels are in the garage waiting to be sold. bloke contacted me today to have a look. we got down to money and i feel like he wants me to give them away. The Wheels 18" OZ Racing SuperLeggera's in black; when new i believe they cost just under £1500 for a set of 4 with out tyres, these wheels are now discontinued and are impossibly difficult to get hold of. mine have nearly new falken 452's on but the wheels need a slight refurb as there is some curbing question is....what do you lot think is a sensible price for these wheels...i'll get a few peoples responces in and then i'll tell you what i asked; and what he offered; be interesting to see where we all came out.

Ricey Posted January 2, 2012 Posted January 2, 2012 800-900 I reckon. Forget the rarity, wheels are wheels....there's usually another manufacturer doing a similar style. Quote
Ricey Posted January 2, 2012 Posted January 2, 2012 About 8-900 id say Great minds and all that jazz! Quote
MidnightRacer Posted January 2, 2012 Posted January 2, 2012 I'd want them for about £600-£700 Quote
rtbiscuit Posted January 2, 2012 Author Posted January 2, 2012 the superleggera was replaced with the ultraleggera, a new set of the ultras are £1400 ish but actually weigh more than the supers. this is the thing, these are proper light weight racing wheels. not heavy copies. i'll get a few more responces in from people and then i'll share what i thought a sensible price was.

350 Russ Posted January 2, 2012 Posted January 2, 2012 About 8-900 id say Great minds and all that jazz! Thats the first and probably the last time im called a great mind Quote
ATTAK Z Posted January 2, 2012 Posted January 2, 2012 You asked for £1150.00 He offered £650.00 I think you will sell them for £1000.00 with decent 452s ........... but not till spring and providing you fix the kerbing Quote
spursmaddave Posted January 2, 2012 Posted January 2, 2012 I would have said £800-£1,000 depending on the curbing and rubber but at the end of the day anything is only worth what someone will pay... Quote
MidnightRacer Posted January 2, 2012 Posted January 2, 2012 I know these are 17's but I think this says it all really. http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/OZ-RACING-SUP ... 125wt_1139 Quote

sparky370z Posted January 2, 2012 Posted January 2, 2012 I had a set of oz super t's 18s. Wicked wheels. I sold them for a fair price but to a mate. I would say that the 18s are worth a decent amount. Especially with decent tyres. I would wait out and get what you want for them Quote

marzman Posted January 2, 2012 Posted January 2, 2012 I'd have said £450. Tyres dont usually affect the price of wheels that much. Quote
rtbiscuit Posted January 2, 2012 Author Posted January 2, 2012 I'd have said £450. Tyres dont usually affect the price of wheels that much. really? ok peeps my personal valuation was that if the wheels were brand new then i would have asked for £800-£900 but they need a refurb, i told him of a place that i use near him that would do a full refurb for £200. so taking that into account i asked £750-£700 after seeing his facial expression i asked what he was looking to pay. his responce £500-£550 i said the lowest i could take was £600 although i would prefer £650, but he should drop me an email tonight and i'd have a think about it. this also includes after market wheel nuts Quote
ATTAK Z Posted January 2, 2012 Posted January 2, 2012 I wouldn't sell at that price ... tell him to come back in 3 months when you're on your uppers and desperate Quote
MidnightRacer Posted January 2, 2012 Posted January 2, 2012 do I get anything for being close?? I think £600 is fair. Quote
ChrisS Posted January 2, 2012 Posted January 2, 2012 Stick at £650/700 unless you need the money now. Quote
rtbiscuit Posted January 2, 2012 Author Posted January 2, 2012 not desperate to sell they are quiet happily sat in the garage. i think my reply will be £600 is the lowest i plan to go; so he can either take it or leave it Quote

brillomaster Posted January 2, 2012 Posted January 2, 2012 £600 sounds cheap... keep hold of them until the right buyer comes along, which will be someone who wants and appreciates quality wheels. If you dont need the money keep hold of them and keep bumping the advert every now and then. where are they advertised? Quote
Ricey Posted January 2, 2012 Posted January 2, 2012 I say email him back and say 'look I know I said 650 but I've had a chat with my mates and actually I'm slapping another 200 notes on sweet cheeks.....how'd you like them apples' Quote
