Jak Posted February 5, 2010 Share Posted February 5, 2010 ...............My stock Rays alloys without tyres, i would probably refurb them to takeout the minor curbing marks (previous owner!!) The reason i ask is that i have some wheels that i like the look of and am considering changing my Rays for , but i would like to know if they would be worth considerably more with tyres with a little life on them (i.e. hold of for a while untill id need to start considering new tyres anyway and do a tyre+wheel package type thingy), Or just sell them separatly? (and swap the tyres over which still have plenty of tread left would just be a bit more stretched over the slightly wider new wheels .....) Thanks Jak P.S. I didn't really know what section to post this in beings as the wheels are not technically for sale yet as its more of a guaging interest/pricing advice thread. So if any Mods want to move it please feel free Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ian Posted February 5, 2010 Share Posted February 5, 2010 I sold mine for £450 with tyres a few years ago but the wheels were badly curbed & corroded and the tyres were bald Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stew Posted February 5, 2010 Share Posted February 5, 2010 I'd consider Rays without tyres if the price was right. Wouldn't matter about refurbing either..... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jak Posted February 5, 2010 Author Share Posted February 5, 2010 thanks Stew, the trouble is i dont really know what the right price is at the moment! + i think the earliest i could get the new wheels is around mid March, so there could be a bit of a wait at the moment! My wheels are not actually in bad nick at all, and the curbing is really just grazes rather than any dents/bends... Jak Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jak Posted February 7, 2010 Author Share Posted February 7, 2010 Any more feedback on this? from what Ian said my wheels sound like they are in a fair bit better condition than his were, and although he sold with tyres he said they were bald? so does this mean i should be aiming for around the 400-450 sort of area ?
