4 x 16" Vega Rims with Tyres Feeler

vimto2000 · 02-05-2008, 10:48

I've decided that I'm probably not gonna ever put these wheels back on my car.

So want to know what the interest would be for the whole set.

They came off my Octy II (standard on the elegance/ early L&K)

I would preferably like to sell them as a set of 4, however if 4 people want full size spare wheels instead of space savers then only then would I break them up.

The tyres are practically brand new! They are stored at my bro's so can not take any pics of them yet. They are in pristine condition.

As a start lets say £400 including all wheels and tyres.

If you decide to split, I'd be interested in a either one or two alloys but not all 4.

What tyres are on them, how old are the tyres, how long have they been off the car and how have they been stored?

The tyres themselves are not massively of interest but even less so if they are factory fit ones as all I'd do is take them off and bin them.

vimto2000 · 02-05-2008, 10:57

They are the factory fit ones, Dunlop Sport 1A or something like that.

They have been stored in a dry metal shed for about a year and covered about 2.5k miles.

So thats a possible 2 wheels in a split...if there are any offers for the other two wheels then we may have a deal

cheezemonkhai · 02-05-2008, 11:22

To be honest with those tyres and the fact that they have been sat (I assume on the same spot) for a year, I wouldn't be interested in the tyres at all.

Assuming you want to sell the tyres I'll drop myself down the list as I wouldn't be willing to pay the same price for a used alloy plus tyre I would have to bin as for a new alloy from the dealer.

If you don't get any luck with selling it and wish to consider selling an alloy let me know and good luck with the sale

vimto2000 · 02-05-2008, 11:27

Np cheezemonkhai, they haven't been stood in the same place as they been moved around a bit. But I understand your point.

Will see how much interest this gathers.

Cheers

Price seems a little high - I bought an unmarked Vega with a brand new tyre (a spare off a wrecked 2006 Octy) off Ebay 3 months ago for £57 collected.

Might be interested in a couple more at a similar price.

vimto2000 · 02-05-2008, 14:40

Depends on the other interest...might be an option!

cheezemonkhai · 02-05-2008, 15:00

If the price was closer to £50 for the alloy (with or without tyre in my case) I'd be interested in 1 maybe 2.

If you want to clear them quickly I am happy to commit to 2 at £50 each and can collect from Northampton ASAP if cheezemonkhai will also commit to 2 then job done???

Would be prepared to take 3 if cheeze' only wants 1

Dr Zoidberg · 02-05-2008, 15:37

I'd be after one as well for the right price....

vimto2000 · 03-05-2008, 20:55

OK Provisionally sold to Cheezemonkai (1 or 2) and Octavia5 (2 or 3 depending on Cheezemonkai ) for £50 a piece.

Unfortuantly I am based in Manchester at the moment, and my brother is in MK. Can you PM and we can sort out details.

Dr Zoidberg · 04-05-2008, 08:02

Bugger.
If there ends up being a spare I'm still interested

Octavia5 · 04-05-2008, 14:51

cheezemonkhai · 06-05-2008, 13:28

I'd be after just the one I think so if you want the one left over Alex?,

I take it you kerbed one same as me then?

Cool.
I'll then have to figure out the most cost effective way of getting it to my house

cheezemonkhai · 06-05-2008, 16:44

I'm just trying to work out the same myself. Eg drive up or ask for a cost on courier without the tyre.
