Jay Posted October 14, 2013 Share Posted October 14, 2013 Hi Guys and Gals, Looking for a bit of advice. I am thinking about selling my Volk Gts 19 inch in great condition. Been powdercoated Midnight purple in the middle and the dish has been powder coated chrome. I will be selling without tyres. Whats your thoughts people, how much are they worth?

Suits Posted October 14, 2013 Share Posted October 14, 2013 Great wheels here. The unhelpful fact is that they're worth whatever people will pay for them. I mean, you can look at how much you paid, how old they are and price them from that. Or you can look at how much it would cost to get a set here now and go from that. Ultimately if you put them up for £2000, then drop the price to £1500 and they sell, they're maybe not worth that but that’s what the market dictated. Also, when you can get a brand new set of Rota's with rubber for probably less that you would want for these, it's going to hard to get the non Volk appreciating public to part for what they are worth.

StevoD Posted October 14, 2013 Share Posted October 14, 2013 Without tyres Japperformance.ie sell wheel of similar size works weds volk SSR etc in good condition for £1300-1900, Depending on the wheels scene status ie SSR SP1 demand a premium, But what you want is up to you but what the buyers think there worth can be two different things, Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hensh65 Posted October 14, 2013 Share Posted October 14, 2013 Love the midnight purple Jay, don't know whay they are worth but if I could afford them I would buy them Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
370Ad Posted October 14, 2013 Share Posted October 14, 2013 These sold for around 2k with tyres after about a year of trying to sell them: http://www.350z-uk.com/topic/62083-jt350gt4-farewell-part-out/ So I would say given that information about £1200-1500 would be a ball park figure depending on how long your willing to wait before splitting with them.

Jay Posted October 14, 2013 Author Share Posted October 14, 2013 I am in no rush at all to sell them, just thought I woulld ask around here and to see if anyone is interested in them. I would be looking at 1700 for them as they really are a piece of art! I know people go Rota etc and they are nice wheels, i had a set on my 350z but Volk are far superior.

marzman Posted October 14, 2013 Share Posted October 14, 2013 Yous are in better condition than mine - but the purple is very specific - i.e. most people will need to factor in a refurb. For mine, with tyres (which are 3mm left MPS2's) i would be asking for around ££1500 to 1750, but they are in need of a refurb. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jay Posted October 14, 2013 Author Share Posted October 14, 2013 Yeh I knew it would narrow down the market when I got them sprayed but they just suit the wheels so much lol. As I say the are in brilliant condition but would be open to sensible offers! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LRF4N Posted October 14, 2013 Share Posted October 14, 2013 Don't sell the wheels... Buy a car for the wheels And learn how to reply to a text lol Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tarmac@TarmacSportz Posted October 14, 2013 Share Posted October 14, 2013 £1500 ovno That's what I would sell for, they are a proper wheel but without tyres I think you may struggle to find a buyer on here. You may get lucky on eBay at £1700 but take the fees off and it's not much more Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jay Posted October 14, 2013 Author Share Posted October 14, 2013 You may be right bud! If anyone is interested drop me a sensible offer! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ian Posted October 14, 2013 Share Posted October 14, 2013 A few years ago they would have been worth £!500 all day long, with the current breed of Z owners you will be lucky to get £15 for them I sold my CE28s after 4 years of use for about £1600 back in the good old days Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Suits Posted October 14, 2013 Share Posted October 14, 2013 I sold my CE28s after 4 years of use for about £1600 back in the good old days You'd get that now too. From me anyway, lol. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Paddy78 Posted October 15, 2013 Share Posted October 15, 2013 Wheels £1700 Refurb £250 Tyres £800 Pushing £3000 for some 2nd hand wheels... as much as I love Volks it's quite a lot. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Atleast at that price whoever buys them wont wont lose money on them Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jay Posted October 15, 2013 Author Share Posted October 15, 2013 I guess I just don't see the point in spending 1200 on an average set of alloys for a few hundred more. That always was my problem tho... Keep spending lol. It will take an enthusiast no doubt to buy them, but it really does transform your car, plus a 370z owner can buy them aswell!

GTR or driftworks might be a better place to sell them as they are top quality wheels. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sarnie Posted October 16, 2013 Share Posted October 16, 2013 Proper wheels. Wrong colour. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jetpilot Posted October 17, 2013 Share Posted October 17, 2013 Without quoting to arouse "discussion" and single out comments. The colour may not be to everyones tastes but personally i like the fact they are different and think the colour will pretty much go with any colour Zed, as someone else mentioned in another thread somewhere, he was looking at spending £7k on wheels to be different At £200 to get the centres done to your personal taste and the fact its so easy to get done cause they are splits is no big deal. Jap performance as Stevo mentions is making a living providing quality 2nd hand rims like these, his pricing is probably a very good gauge as what you can expect to achieve. Sure you may need to buy tyres but you can pick up some very good part worn Michelin etc for not a lot. And to the Rota comments as an alternative, sure you can pick up a set of new Rotas with average rubber for less new, but, thats exactly the point, they will always be Rotas that adorn 1000's of cars because you can buy them new cheap and will be worth about £2.50 in a couple of years along with 1000's of others for sale, imho, you cannot compare prices with Rotas. These wheels will still be worth good money in a year or 2 or more, as Rotas flood the market, these get rarer, values might even go up £1500 and not a penny less imho. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Which was in line with the OP's question. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
