Epsilon Wheels

What is the deal with Epsilon wheels these days.... I have been looking for a new set and have found several, but people are asking between $1000-$1800 for their sets!!! Granted, IMO they are some of the nicest wheels for a first gen and RX-2, 3, and 4 but give me a break.

Sorry for the rant but what ever happened to selling something for a reasonable price to someone else who will appreciate them as much as the previous owner. If you don't really want to get rid of them, dont sell them!!

It's a market economy. If there was no demand, they'd be cheaper. Keep looking, you'll find something eventually.

I want some soooo bad, but I can't afford them. People who have them don't want to get rid of them, and if they say they do they'll put a stupid expensive high price in the hopes that the cash will heal the pain of selling a seat of beautiful rims or just to deter you from buying.

I wouldnt expect to pay any less then 1k for a nice set. Took me a while to find mine and still paid 1100. As time goes on they will only get harder to find.

It takes a lot of money just to repolish and powdercoat the wheels that's probably the high price but if they havnt been done up I wouldn't pay no more than $700.I got a set that I'm doing up for my rx2 and I paid around $400 for them but I got to repolish and powercoat them .if they are centerlocks epsilons be ready to pay anywhere from $1500-$2500.

I paid 9 hundo for my set. They need a little bit of work but I'm happy I got them. If I ever do sell I'll ask for a stupid amount too.

They are a nice find if you can get a pair for a good price. I bought a 9/10 condition set few years back for $800 with tires
