Skoda owners - what are these alloys worth?
« on: October 08, 2012, 01:57:26 pm »
Considering selling my winter wheels which are 18 inch Octavia VRS Zenith II, think they are ET51 (they fit over a NQSBBK with no spacer).

Three of the wheels have some slight damage - one kerbed and two which were on the front have some light machining damage from a careless garage when they changed some tyres over. Am thinking seeing as 3 need a refurb £250-300?

Any views fron the VRS boys appreciated  :happy2:

I picked up a set of Zeniths last year from a guy on here for £200. In fairness they all needed a refurb though.

Also would depend on the quality of the rubber currently fitted on them. I have a set of Seat 17's with winter rubber (Vred (2k miles) and Kleber (500 miles) ) and wouldn't know what to ask for them. I'd have to say it's a buyers market though, as in you'll get more just after payday's.

cheers for replies, tbh i wanted to keep the Vred wintrac xtremes and just sell the alloys! I suppose could sell altogether if the offer was attractive enough etc.

yep, I'd say 250 would be about right.  pop an ad on briskoda and you'd get some interest I expect.

Might be worth trying to sell them here. Replace the centre cap and away you go.
