Default Whats a fair price for a set of like new BBS-RS-GT 18"

Was looking for a nice set of "like new" wheels and wanted to know what folk's thought a fair price would be. (2) 18x10 and (2) 18x8. No rash. good shape. Thoughts?

Thanks in Advance

Go to Tirerack's website and price out a new set. Reduce. Rinse. Repeat.

Usually a decent set runs for 2200+ with no shoes. 2600+ for near mint, just rims.

I've been looking for quite some time now for some of these and cannot get any. Apparently I slow on the draw and everyone else beats me to it... ie. Glen & Al

Bill sorry, but I get dibbs on the next set FS on Rennlist...

I wanted the Ruf's but LA964RS must have sold them as he didn't respond. He had them listed in other places as well as RL so I am thinking they are gone.

I have the wheels and tires. Mine are BBS RE. They are one piece forged and have only been on my car for 400 miles. New RE 050A tires. No rash or damage. I would take 2,000 plus shipping or 2800 with the new tires. Yes I am a member. they are 8.5" by 18" front and 10 by 18 rear. Narrow body offsets. I have them on my wide body with factory 25mm spacers on the rear. tires are 225 front and 285 rear. PM me if you are interested. I am in Atlanta. Tires have 100 miles on them.

LA964RS sold his RUFs locally.

Dave, no hard feelings (the advantage of geographic proximity to the seller)... I think I overpaid anyway. I've seen a few of these go for as low as $2,000 with good rubber. However, my wheels are absolutely pristine... too bad they're going to be my track wheels. I'll be keeping the RS-IIs for the street. I initially paid $2,700 (delivered to my door by the seller) with the Michelin PS 245/295 rubber (that ended up not fitting in my wheel wells). The seller is buying the tires back plus my stock seats for $1,100. So overall, I ended up getting the wheels for $1,600 plus my stock seats (I think he got the good deal on this transaction)
