There is always the option of mounting snow tires! Oops, is that a no, no! Actually, with the market for all the new fancy this and that and the rims they are putting out on the water cooled editions, it wouldn't seem like you would get much for them except from the concourse all orig equipment crowd. Maybe store them for a few years and when there is nothing out there but the scuffed up junk, someone might bite. Either way, best of luck.

As a comparison, I sold my 'reasonable' condition D90's for £50. These look pretty good condition though so......

It's a cheap alternative for a somewhat lightweight autoX wheel, too, though not light enough to be competitive beyond SCCA stock classes. JW

There's only one way to know the true market value for such an item: No Reserve. Items are only worth as much as people are willing to spend on them.

Sorry if that sounds harsh or trite but that's been my experience.

$500 for D90s is way more than I think you'll get for them. I think mine went for $300 (and I was pleased) but who knows. Good Luck

I sold a NICE set of D90's years ago for $400 with good rubber, could have got'en more but not much. If yours are ABSOLUTLY CLEAN, maybe $500 isn't out of the question, but any dings, rash or nicks I think will lower that number

I certainly respect the opinions I've received and have lowered my price to $400. They are really clean so I'm hoping they'll sell now.

Your best luck would be to find a VW guy who wants them for their van or GTI.

Would the 944 or 928 folks be looking for these as well? It looks like a rim that cam on the S2.

Default i would rather keep em then sell em for the prices people offered me.

I have 2 sets of d90's in very good shape. They now hold up a work bench in my garage. I had offered em around several years ago but the prices people were willing to pay we so low i figured maybe I would use em sometime. I think they're UGLY and it worth the upgrade to 17 inch IMHO. By the way I have 2 sets of 6 and 7 by 16 fuchs too and my wife is hocking me to sell all of them. She just does not see the beauty in keeping them all.

Hey Trader...dont flood the market on me (laughs). I would post your Fuchs on ebay...you've got about $600 at least sitting in each set. Or if you like to trade.....
