Hi, I'm hoping someone could give me some advice. When I bought the car, I had originally planned to use it as a daily drive and bazza was good enough to throw in an extra set of wheels (with a little persuasion :P ) which I had intended to use for the winter. Just over a month later I am smitten and after doing a bit of math it seems daft putting loads of extra miles on her on the tedious drive to work and back, especially given there isn't one opportunity along the way to have a little fun :).

 

With that in mind I've bought myself a little diesel corsa which given our girt is a thirsty lass pays for itself in fuel in 4 months ha and it also means I don't really need the wheels. They're Rays, what model I don't know, quite old and curbed but never the less don't look that bad on the car. I'm not sure what they're worth but all the tyre are also in good nick so must be worth a little for them alone. What should I be asking for them?

 

Also if anyone want's to make me an offer by PM feel free, just to point out the obvious i do have all 4. all funds will be reinvested into the zed :)

 

 

 

18s I guess? are they staggered fitment - i.e wider at back? more dish on back ones? all the centre caps missing?

ye 18s, don't believe they're staggered and in my experience with staggered sets it is usually pretty obvious to the eye. Some have center caps, off the top of my head they say 'trickster' :S

 

they're right at the back of the shed atm with me not planning on using them until winter, so bit hard to go check

Also what tyres unless they are a good make the tyres won't be worth much but the wheels potentially are if they are staggered like baz asked

although the tyres may be good it doesnt necessarily bump the price up dramatically, dont forget they are polished finish so repairing the damage and getting an original finish back would be very difficult/expensive. I'd say from the info and pics given expect around £300-£350.

I'd need to check at least two are pirelli pzero's, I don't think any of the tyre's are bad, it wasn't an area bazza skimped. tbh if I got 300 - 350 I'd be happy, obviously more would be great but I presume that would cover a sizeable amount of the bill to get my side skirts repainted and blended and let me get them done in the next week or so :)

when you get a chance to dig them out then post the details on the forum...

 

if the pic you posted are the front (8") then i'd guess the rears would be 9" maybe even 9.5". Decent makes like Rays are usually a staggered fitment.

That's some nasty kerb damage

Will do I'll dig them all out when I get home tonight.

Ye, its not the best I'll admit but I'm guessing thats why he saved them for the winter. I suppose if your going to do something you might as well do it propperly

In know this is not really relevant but i tried to fix Kerb damage like that on a set of chrome wheels by supergluing tin foil over the affected area :)

 

needless to say, looked like shite when i'd finished :(
