Default What are 17" Cup II's worth?

What could I reasonably expect to get for a set of original Cup II's w/ N1 ContiSportContact's on them. Thinking of changing wheels for the Carrera IV wheel and this could offset the cost.

TIA

Uncle Buck:

Post some pics of the wheels and tires so people can get an idea on how to value the set. Easier to sell that way as well.

Must be nice cosmetically and above all straight to have good value. Lots of slightly tweaked, curb rashed wheels around. Straightening and refinishing costs more than the value of a perfect set, so the economics are pretty shaky.

But if they're really nice, maybe $600-800 for the set. Unless the tires are near-new, they don't add much value.

They are nice with no curb rash but for that $$, I think I'll just end up keepng them. The PO had one rear refinished after it got snarfed up with a tire mounting.

Thanks for the input gents - If I keep them I can put the car back original if I ever sell it.

^^^That's what I've done. You won't get huge money by selling them. Then one day you'll decide you want them for whatever reason and will have to go through the hassle of finding/shipping/restoring another set for more than you sold yours for. Always seems to work out that way.
