Guys what would a set of 7Jx16 original fuchs be worth wrapped in brand new never used continental tires 205/55/16? The wheels were polished unfortunately so don't have the black inside..any idea on value?

What year?

205's on 7's. Someone was going to put them on the front of a G-body or the back of a longhood.

Check out the local craigslist then offer them to me for $400 with local green cash pick up.

A set of four or a pair of two? I'm still asleep.

I run 205S on the back on my 74.

$200-250 per wheel is about right.

Full set guys- with brand new tires. I thought these were gonna be expensive lol I guess the real money is in the 14-15" ones.

Well to be honest there is not really " a full set" of 7s. Although that's what I have
Cars come with 6s and 7s or 7s and 8s as far as I know.
When I was in Hershey you were not touching decent 6s and 7s or 4 7s for under 2 grand.

I think the all polished look personally kills the value on these wheels.

7x15 is a different story. You have run of the mill SC wheels.

Amber Gramps

Yep. And it's likely just two pairs if you are lucky as the date stamps are not gonna be the same. Clive is right about the polish.....cuts the value in half. If you want polished, then sure, works already done, but if you want original this wheel is useless. I don't know anyone that's even taken them back to painted after a good polish job. As much value in the Conti's as in the Fuchs.

I forgot about the middies having skinnier hips than the Carreras.... Can you run 8's on a '74?

How many rear width are there?

Longhoods
middies/SC
Carrera

....or is it

Longhoods
middies
SC
Carrera

I don't remember

The polish is so ugly

Amber Gramps

Just be glad it isn't chrome. Always a bright side.

GTgears

I don't think you can run 8s on a stock 74. My car has SC flares on it so I can. I have some 8x16s with 215s I run on track.
