Feeler: How much for OEM Style 168 Wheels?

I've been looking into some other wheel options and I'm just wondering how much you guys think I could get for my style 168s (and if it would be even be worth it). They are in great condition, one wheel has a 3'' curb rash. They have Vredesteins with about 75% tread left.

This is not for sale thread, just looking for some info. I know a lot depends on the potential buyer and location. I tried checking around for some other for sale threads, but most were outdated or the price was removed after they were sold.

Thanks

If it helps, I paid 1k for my oem 87's with minor curb rash on two rims and michis diamaris with about 65% thread left. No shipping involved cuz I picked up in Jerzy. This is not to say that you should sell yours for 1k, but just an fyi since 4.6's/4.8's oems are in great demand for those of us that want that look.

275's & 315's (perfect condition) 1 wheel has a 2" curb rash (no biggie).

I was actually looking for 87's. This guy had a flawless set (chrome) with
brand new Toyos. He was asking $2500 obo. I wasn't looking for chrome
ones, but he didn't have any problem selling them for $2250.
Wheels and tires are really expensive here in Canada. I personally think the best deals are in California (generally USA) from what I see on Ebay & Craigslist?




Hey Cisc0, I'm thinking their worth over $1500? (well atleast here in Can.)
When I got mine, the seller was originally asking $2500 and I made him an
offer of $1500 & he took it (he needed the money for some speeding
tickets he got on his motorcycle last summer)....But I was prepared to pay him full price because the dealer sells the 168's with tires for $5500 plus tax...............................

Ive been eyeing up a set of 168s for a while. Many sellers on ebay selling replica 168s with tires for around $1,300 new.

For OEM's, you can get a few more. Guessing $1,500 or so. Depends on how bad the rash is, and how new the tires are.

That they are worth over $1500 with tires, but not many will pay it in NYC. Member on here, I believe JBelknap is selling two fronts 87's with tires for $250 each I believe but thats his price. Whoever has them can ask whatever they want, doesn't mean they're going to get it. Its all about negotiating. Dealer would want you to surrender one of your kidneys and an arm for a set with tires. I guess I lucked out with my set.

Reps with tires $1200 pick up
OE with tires $2000 pick up
If you really want those wheels GONE...
If you going to ship these wheels and tires .... looking to pay about $250-$300 for ship.

Thanks for all the replies guys.. Yeah I was hoping that they would be worth >$2000, especially with good tires, but I guess it wouldn't really be worth it for me. Thanks!
