Author Topic: Value of stock 318is wheels (Read 4069 times)

I am purchasing a completely stock 1991 318is and of coruse it has the stock wheels. I want to upgrade the wheels and was wondering the value of the stock wheels to help offset the costs.

Is there a market for these and if so what would four nice condition stock wheels be worth?

Thanks

Bob

sell them to honda and vw guys.

I just drove past an old vw rabbit that had bottlecaps with black painted centers.
Basketweave is a nice design that lots of people like so you may be able to get 200-250 if the tires are useable.

Heh, mine were crap, I just gave them away to a friend/traded it for an air compressor.

You can easily get $250 for a set of nice basketweaves w/o tires.

I like the basketweaves, however, I don't know if I would enjoy trying to keep them clean... I have the bottlecaps on my 318ic (for now).
