I'm looking at the wide body fitment.
This is what I have been offered and want to see what's a fair price:

$2000 if in near perfect condition (as they appear in the photo), because I don't think it makes sens to pay more for a used set of wheels. Especially ones that you cannot get parts/replacements for.
just my .02$
I've had too many bad experiences with buying and selling used wheels that I don't do it anymore.
I once bought a set of BBS E28 magnesium racing wheels for my GT3, knowing that they were beat to death at track.
What I didn't know was that this $800 set of wheels ended up costing me almost $4k when all was said and done. (cracked centers, bent halves etc.)
On another instance, I sold a set of Kinesis K28ss that came with my 993 to a friend. Eventually he found out that one of the centers had hairline cracks. since Kinesis doesn't exist anymore, I had to buy another used set of K28s so we could make one full set. I got nothing out of the deal, except a big headache...
-> I might be a bit biased...

those look to be the set owned by carlos. you'd never loose money on those.. They are worth anywhere from 1500 - $2200. he's selling them for dirt cheap. Do you like the look of them though? They've got the reverse lips.. most kinesis wheels have standard stepped lips. Definitely a good buy if you like the look. And if you ever need a replacement wheel half or center cap or hardware, i've got you covered

I still have one set of 18" Kinesis wheels that I use on the track and one of them had a cracked barrel, which I welded, but I would feel better if the wheel half was replaced.
