Good looking wheels, just a pity about the size. Have some fun refinishing them over winter, then sell em to a vw guy! Make some cash.

Honestly I would not pay more than $50 for them.
They go for $200 maybe slighlty more on Vortex but that the ceiling on them without being refinished or polished.

I picked up this set in Dec for free:



Got them for free 'cause the car was dead and sitting for years. Unfortunately I noticed while I picking them up that one is a different size.
They are 15x7 et20 but one of them is 15x6 et30 (probably what your junkyard set is).
So now I need to source a crappy 15x6 or ante up for another 15x7.

Couple years ago I picked up a set of 4 14x6 at Pick-n-Pull during their 50% sale and paid $32 for the set. :D

ok do you guys now of anyone selling a decent set then i know it is a pitty that they only go up to 15's but they are my favorite looking wheel. i dont mind having to put a little bit of work into them. o and thats a great find for free but its a shame they are not all 15x7 but the one with the center cap in the picture do you know were to get that cap?

[Teaguer]

I have all of those caps..but they don't fit.
They were glued/siliconed on. They look better with the proper flat caps anyway.

I'd say they're worth $200, but no more. I personally don't care for them all that much.

I have a set that I cleaned up and painted satin black. I think they look good on my alpine e30. I run them with 205/50's, a 20mm spacer in the rear, and I'm currently looking for either a 5 or 8mm spacer for the front.

[mason6556]

would you post a pic of them on your car?

[notguilty411]

They currently aren't on the car (winter wheels/tires are), but I might have a pic somewhere with them. I'll take a look after work. If you are still interested.
