What are the stock wheels off an 89 turbo (turbo s) worth?
Assuming good shape?
"They are forged 16-inch rims polished with hand painted center caps 7-inch fronts with 225/50 tires and nine-inch rears with 245/45 tires. (The tires pass inspection but they are old and have no value). They are sharp on the car. The back of the rim is powder coated black so the rim looks flat. I don’t know the weight of them."

He wants $1250 for teh wheels + sway bars and torsion bars. In another thread it was determined that the sway bars are probably worth ~$100 and the torsion bars are useless to me so I think his price is a little ridiculous but I really do want the wheels.

That price is insane, just hold out. I looked at Clubsports wheels for a long time and if you're patient you'll find good sets for ~$500. SFR even let a set go for $200 a few months ago which were perfect!!! 
On EDIT: If you want something REALLY nice wait for a set of 928 Clubsports...they have the 8" front wheel instead of the 7".

They will be bare without tires. Cosmetically they are in very good condition with a few very light scratches. Price is $650 plus shipping from Seattle. As soon as I get the tires removed I'll take some pictures and post them on my web site.

If you sit on the Rennlist Classifieds for long enough [months] you'll find anything you want. Tom is asking a decent price for his if they're straight and true.
