Default cup 1 replica value

Going to check out a set of 17" cup 1 reps supposedly in good condition. Anyone have a bead on the going rate for these?

depends on sizing and offsets, for starters.

If they are the MM's 7.5" and 9" ET52 & ET 47, they are likely now worth $1,500 + with OK rubber attached. The OEM Cup 1's are currently going up like a rocket, so the replica's are now following suit. If they are nice, buy em!

To clarify, I believe they are the MM's, although the seller hasn't confirmed. The sizes and offsets match the 7.5 - 9 / 52 - 47. No tires, just the wheels.

I've been wanting a set for my 964 but haven't loved the cost of admission for an original set. I don't have an issue with replicas at all though. Sounds like these are worth a look.

This is from a UK supplier, but it gives an idea of the cost of the MM wheels new.

Good info, thanks. Looks like they'd be $1162 new based on exchange rates.

$400 is a steal!. Buy em, or if you pass, let me know

Suprized they still make them new. Yes $1,100 plus cost of rubber, shipping etc, well over $1,500. They used to come from Tire Rack, but no more.

Exactly what I was thinking!! $400 is a great price. Even if they're curbed or "rough" it's still a great bargain. And x2 if you don't pick them up and christallon doesn't want them, please pass on his info to me

Picked them up today. I'd call them fine, maybe not "good". Good enough to ride as is and refinish down the road. Looks like a couple spots were touched up not very well. 375 with caps though, so I think that's pretty good.

Next up is unload these 16s!

Thanks for the input, gents.

The 16's are probably worth $450. Good job! Good buy. You can refinish the replicas for $4-500, and have an awesome set.
