The rims I can sell for $800. And yes, I know I am still considered on the high side for these, but any less and I will keep them.
With the current tires on them I will sell for $950. I have put new tires on all 5 rims. Current tires are Nokian eNTYRE All-Season Radial Tire - 195/60R15 92H. They are wider than stock tires, but they fit perfectly under my stock fenders. The tires have about 50 miles on them. I paid $52 a piece on Amazon and $50 to get them all mounted, so the tires alone I have $300 into it. They will need new center caps, as the originals were damaged on removal. Shipping would be extra, and I can ship them any way the buyer wants to. Local pickup is always a possibility. I would be willing to drive 100 miles in any direction to help. My location is zip code 48838. email me at tatiffany32@gmail.com |

I see you are new. Mahle wheels are known for bending and warping. Not anybody's first choice.

I see you are new. Mahle wheels are known for bending and warping. Not anybody's first choice. So you would definitely not autocross with them? I want to do so, and I really think it would be a shame to tarnish such nice originals. I need to get enough for them to at least pay for some aftermarkets. I got my hopes up by seeing two different ebay auctions with asking prices of $1900 an.d $2300 respectively. Mine are a complete set of 5, and all of them look good as new. I realize that asking prices on ebay are pretty far from sold prices. But the last set of 4, that looked pretty rough, went for $500 I don't need that kind of money, but I would feel pretty ill to get less than $1k for them. Would I be better off breaking up the set and selling them 1 at a time? |

I took no offense to anyone’s comments. I’m learning the ropes, and guys are helping me do so. If anything, I know what I have now, and am better off for it.
If anyone does want the set for $1k with attached tires, I would sell them. Meanwhile, I’m proud to have such a nice set of OEM originals. |
