      Those on ebay didn't get a bid. They were missing anything like good close ups of each wheel. Asking $700 they gotta be clean.
      Let's go exploring!

        Actually, the last two sets I saw sold were for around 1k.

        700 is a damn bargain, and if I hadn't already bought wheels, I'd be rocking these.

            This is all that was shown.


            Call me a skeptic, but it would appear that we're only seeing the best of the set and 1/2 of two others. One rim is not shown full stop! I know new ones go for a grand and seriously considered a new set a year ago, but who would drop $700 on wheels that may be of questionable integrity, regardless of the model? eBay is 100% BBW.

              Good luck finding a decent set. I still get emails from people who found an old ad on BEN that I posted nearly a year ago.

                  For $700 - you could refinish them and still be ok.

                    That is why eBay lets you ask the seller a question. Ask for more pictures and ask for express descriptions of whether they are rashed, damaged, etc.

                    If you were told they were mint and they show up bent and beat up, and have the emails trail to show it- eBay will step in and help you out.

                    700 isn't a bad price if they are in good, though not perfect, shape. I dont know where you think you can get them for 1000 new. I sold my set for 1000 used.
