rtbiscuit Posted August 1, 2013 Share Posted August 1, 2013 Sounds about right, especially as that's about £700 in Tyres alone. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MITZ@CougarStore Posted August 1, 2013 Share Posted August 1, 2013 Is this for a used set, as typically the wheels alone are circa £960.00... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

370Ad Posted August 1, 2013 Share Posted August 1, 2013 Bought mine for £1100 with 6mm Falkens on and no damage to any of the wheels. So yes about right! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
370Ad Posted August 1, 2013 Share Posted August 1, 2013 Just curious as guy on here messaging me about them i gave him a price and seem rather insulted and said there way overpriced You will always get people like that. They are decent wheels with the correct spec tyres and a perfect offset! If he cant afford them thats not your fault 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

KyleR Posted August 1, 2013 Share Posted August 1, 2013 I have the same wheels and tyres/wear, but different colour and I'd be looking more than that if I came to selling. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mattross1313 Posted August 1, 2013 Share Posted August 1, 2013 (edited) I'm guessing by asking for a price that you have had an offer to buy these?(for yourself) if you are selling let me know!! Edited August 1, 2013 by mattross1313 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jay Posted August 1, 2013 Share Posted August 1, 2013 I would say that is a very fair price indeed sir. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jetpilot Posted August 3, 2013 Share Posted August 3, 2013 (edited) Imho the problem you have with Rotas (particularly grid drifts) are the classifieds are littered with them. The drift boys will not care what rubber they have on or condition as they will cane them anyway. You would probably be better keeping the tyres and trying to sell them on dw.

StevoD Posted August 3, 2013 Author Share Posted August 3, 2013 Ive postponed the selling anyway but but im selling to 350z-uk not driftwork or which if you look people dont drift 19s Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jetpilot Posted August 3, 2013 Share Posted August 3, 2013 Dont ask the question if you dont like the answer! People do drift 19's and dw might enhance your target audience as its not just drifters who use it, but your not selling now so no problems anyway Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But cheers for your input. The last 4 sets of alloy's I've bought haven't come with rubber at all If I was to buy some 19's it would be purely for looks and road use as A) 19's are bloody expensive normally, let alone to go through a set in 4 laps and You're gearing the car up putting more strain on bits, so I'm not going to go all out on them. However, I'm not a pro so I wouldn't know. I do know that Vaughn Gittin Jr uses 18's as I have one in my lounge at home though! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jetpilot Posted August 5, 2013 Share Posted August 5, 2013 Just to entertain you as your bored at work: Ignoring the do people drift on 19's discussion as its a bit fruitless as much as people will drift any size (you even mention that yourself), not everyone on dw will be viewing the for sale adds for the sole intention of drifting, they may be looking for the stance look and with those offsets your in that target audience, hence mentioning driftworks and perhaps trying to aid your sale "Imho", you would be more likely to sell if you split, again, trying to aid your sale. Do you really want my opinions on Kumho Ecsta's, i doubt it unless it agrees with what yours is, which it wont Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

In there larger 18" side wall size then they are a bit soft. Splitting will not help the sale at all. Especially for the price point he is looking for. The last set sold on here for £950 and before that £1100 so its just a matter of time to find the right buyer 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
