Help me put a price on 88 7 spoke turbo II wheels.
Help me put a price on 88 7 spoke turbo II wheels.
OK. So im starting to realize my wheels are pretty rare.
They came stock on my 88 Turbo II.
They are the 7 spoke turbo II's.
This is what they look like. Mine do have 1/2 of the shine gone. But you can tell they used to be chrome or something similar.

Original finish was machined aluminum, clear-coated.
The price - not a lot, like any used older, smaller rim (16x6, or 16x7? Probably pretty heavy?) even in mint condition. When people can go to a Pick'n'Pull and grab them for $25 apiece, it puts a bit of an upper limit on value. In good shape, might be worth $50-$60/rim to the right buyer.

Ask 300, maybe someone restoring a TII back to factory would want them.
I wouldn't pay more than 100 myself... as the rims aren't very big and are kinda heavy.

If all four are that nice, I'd say they're worth setting aside in your basement unless you can get a good price for them now. As you say, they're pretty uncommon. I believe that design was only available on '88 TIIs. Of course, that same shape wheel was painted white and offered on the 10AE. They are probably not worth much at all today to anybody aside from a collector looking to restore a car to original condition. FCs don't seem to have that kind of following yet.
By the way, I have a mint set of the machined and clearcoated 15" "baloney slicers" in my basement for the same reason, in case I decide to restore my car in 10 years or so and start taking it to car shows...
