Whats the going rate? I have two sets that are supporting a huge work table in my garage. If the price moves to a level where its worth taking the whole contraptions apart I would do it.

I think we discussed price previously in the thread.
Absurd $$$$ for a mint set that would make a concours guy cry, but dirt cheap for garden variety wheels with normal amounts if curb rash.

Yea I inquired at a well known wheel place in the LA area about a set of 9X16 pair of Fuchs. I even offered all 8 design 90's in trade and they said NO. Not just NO but I wasent even in the ball park. maybe in 30 years if I am still kicking the price will rally to the point where its worth taking the entire workshop apart to sell the wheels. Of course a screw or a bolt could fall down in there and force me to do it before then.

Just a little bump to see if anyone has any additional leads. Currently I find just 1 single 16x8 at E-Bay. A couple helpful PM's have come my way, but nothing has panned out.
Come on now! You know the D90 is the most hated Porsche Wheel for our cars. I will help turn those unloved wheels into cash, and you will be helping me with my autocross program!

Thanks for the bump..!
Yea - I've got a set - 2-8Jx16 ET52.3 and 2 6Jx16... They are in pretty good shape (just a bit dirty - the dirt is free
) They came with Jen's '89 964 as spare rims - so I've never run them (the dirt was from the PO 
)
Let me know if these are what you need, OK??
Best to you!
John

Hey BGL..
Dang it - I am so sorry!!! Let me check the PMs, OK????
In the meantime - what I was going to post....
- if you can PM me your mailing address where you can have Fedex Ground deliver them - I'll send them off tomorrow. When you get them - pop me a check or Paypal to cover shipping plus whatever you think they are worth to you. Heck, I'll even try to clean them up for you a bit!!!
Yea - it's open ended on price, based on what you think they are worth (not me), as right now they are sitting in my garage - not mounted, and frankly - I'd like to see a Rennlister get some use out of them....
If that sounds OK to you - pop me a PM with your address, and I'll PM you back with a tracking number when they go out, OK?
Best to you,
John

Just a note to publicly thank John D., our Rennlist site Admin for making available a pair of very nice D90 16x8 wheels.
John and I have never met, and prior to my plea for a set of 16x8's, I don't think we have ever even participate in the same thread.
But John very kindly offered up an unused pair of wheels, and before I knew it, he offered to ship them to me, with him paying the upfront shipping cost. All he asked was that, when I get them, if they meet my needs, just send him what I thought they are worth, plus shipping!
The wheels arrived yesterday, and appear to be in very nice condition.
What can I say, other than THANK YOU.
Hopefully someday, I will be in a position to also help out a fellow Rennlister in the same way that John was able to help me out.
Best Regards,
Brian Leduc (BGL)

I e-mailed the admin folks to see whats up with that.
Rest assured this grievous oversight will soon be addressed!
