check out the for sale section for price quotes of how much they are worth. in the end, they are only worth as much as someone will buy them for

Exactly. No matter if they are brand new in the box or not, if you have everybody that would rather have used ones for $400.00 then yours for alot more, then guess what there won't be any interest. I have a feeling if you bought them new then you paid out the azz for them, however you probably won't get near what you paid for them.

Skater - I saw a set of 94s (reinforced) w/ brand new tires for Falken Zeins for 350.

I would say yours go from 250-350. The powdercoat and the tires (both size and make) will make them less attractive to a lot of people, but more attractive to others.

What size are the tires?

What color is the powdercoat? If they are gunmetal or white, I would be very interested in a local pickup.

PM me and we can discuss specifics

If that is a fair picture, then that is more black than gunmetal. Gunmetal/Charcoal Grey is like Spirit-R BBS RG-R color.

I would say search around, even at different forums, you'd be suprised how high the demand is for the fd rims, especially brand new ones I would say at least $400, but like everyone is saying its just what people are willing to pay, you would probably be better off putting them on ebay, honestly I think you would make the most money there. $hit you can sell a roll of toilet paper on there for $25.

I say if most people sell stock wheels with so so tires for 300 - 400 bucks, then you should at least get 500-600 for brand new wheels. I would put them on Thepartstrader.com for 650 obo.

If you wait long enough you will find a buyer.

Or try ebay. I bet someone will ****** them up if you start the bidding at 450 and have a buy it now price of 650.
