Wheel opinions?

[Avus E30]

I am thinking about getting these wheels... They are 15X7 and come with bad dry rotted tires because the wheels haven't been used it a long time. I think they are a step up from my bottle caps but still arent great. I would need to clean them up and paint them maybe. Suggestions on what I should pay since they will need some work before they are mounted with new tires.
I mounted them one day just to see what they looked like.



they arent great but they are relatively cheap (hopefully I can talk him down to a more reasonable price than the 300 hes asking) and defenitely are better than bcaps. Opinions on price and opinions on them are both welcome.

What kind of wheels are they? $300 seems a bit much for them.

[Avus E30]

I dont know what brand right Off I need to check. I guess that would be good to know wouldn't it....*kicking one's self in ass*

Offer him $150. Pay what you feel they are worth. They aren't great, but not awful either. If they aren't heavy, get them.

Meh. I don't think they're a much of a step up from the bottlecaps, if at all. 15" Euro weaves usually go for ~$400 or so. Just save up and get those. Or even brand new Konig Imagines in 15x7 are $120/wheel. Much better than those wheels.

they look pretty heavy/thick visually at least. Who knows what they really weigh.

I am thinking about getting them and having them sandblasted and then paint the middle a medium silver/grey and then polishing the lip. but im still not sure.

[asubimmer]

thats the way to go ;)

[Avus E30]

this is the paint scheme I was hoping to do on them.
Thanks joe318is for the colors ;)

I've figured out why I don't like them. My subconscious memory stirred up memories of Integras.

now those are just ugly, comeon they cant be that bad haha

Those wheels are pretty ugly.

If you aren't 100% happy with them, why bother buying them?
It's not a stepup from bottlecaps at all - I think b-caps are better. Basketweaves on the other hand wouldn't be a bad upgrade though.

if you want weaves I might be getting some new rims today so we might be able to work something out. My weaves are already painted already. They were marked off great but there are a few chips in the paint but nothing really noticable...haha expecially w/ brake dust on em like there is right now. If you wanted though I could sand blast them. Just let me know...I don't really need to sell then but $ would help my turbo setup fund/fixing my back window fund.

14 or 15 weaves?
