Hmm around $75-100 each wheel? I sold mine even cheaper cos I kinda needed a quick sale and I sold them to a fellow Eurofordclub member.

You said that you're selling your WQ LX and yet you want to "buy some really sporty rims for my ford".... what kind of Ford?

Welcome to the Forums.

I sold my factory WQ Zetec Alloys with the original 195/45R16 tyres for $600 for the set of 4 when I got the car back in April last year.

Ah ok. Misunderstanding on my part. Yeh unfortunately you wont get much for the 15" steel wheels and the Turanzas. Which rims are you looking to get?

Welcome to the forum, btw. Where r u located?

I just a set of "New Old Stock" Fiesta 16inch rims with Potena GIII's for $405

If they are in good condition you may be able to get a decent amount for them as rims for the Fiesta are hard to come by.

Welcome to the forums
The wheels and tyres are only worth what someone will pay, (obviously). Ebay may be the best option (bigger audience etc.). Being an odd PCD and offset the wheels won't fit much else, so really the tyres will be the most sellable part.

Where are you looking at getting the rims from?

I have had alook at Bob Jane Tmart last night and he quoted $1300.00 for the set of 16inch spider rims and tyres with balance and wheel alignment. But to me, i think thats to much money, dont really wanna spend more then $1000.00.

Depends on what Size wheel you want. your not going to get much for 1k....if you go 16" you Might get away with it depending on what tyres you get.

I got my 17" rims from Ford New for 760 and tyres cost me 500.
