How much for genuine 18" monzas
« on: February 06, 2016, 09:19:45 pm »
Looking at selling my genuine 18" inch Monza rims off my mk5 gti. 2 have a little curb rash and the other 2 are in mint condition. How much should I be asking for each wheel? £100 a rim? Or more?

Thanks

I got rid of mine for £150 all 4  :signLOL: the guy that sold me the car curbed the sh*t out of them so had to get rid of it and buy myself some new rims.

Considering that it costs £100 per wheel to get rid of the white worm, they're not worth much. Simply because it just comes back after a year if you go for the diamond cut finish.

I was considering buying two Monzas but I'd rather just wait until the summer and buy some BBS rims. Unless you're offloading two at a good price  :laugh:

I sold mine for £600 with decent tyres, refurbished in Audi titanium (£200 for the refurb of all 4 because I'd given the refurb guy a fair bit of business).

^ This. They're just not suited to UK road conditions. A mild/warm Mediterranean climate where they don't use grit on the roads is where they should be.

Not sure about this  :confused: the back rims have been on the car 12 years and are in mint condition

You must have a secret, because even the wheel refurbishers that I went to said it won't last over a year.

When they're finished in one colour, i.e., powdercoated, they'll last as long as any other alloy.

This and the fact diamond cutting is so expensive really drops the value of a wonderful alloy.

I sold mine with no tyres for £200 and that was a struggle.

Mine are going up for about £150 once I've found something to replace them with.
They've previously been painted though.

I thought it was a fair price tbh. The rims are in good condition and are genuine.
