As above really, due to an imminent house move I'm having a clear out and have a couple of sets of old alloys, probably not any use to anybody, just wondered if they are worth weighing in???

I was in the same situation last week. I was going to scrap 2 sets but on the way thought I'd try a wheel shop. Sold one set for £100 and second set for £120. Scrap yard was paying around £10 per wheel, try a local wheel centre first

Yer I got rid of two sets of heavy 18s and only got £40 a set.
Montreals are 16'a and hold there money really well! What do the 15s look like? And where are you located?

Never sed I sold some on there dude for my missus mk4 gt tdi for winters actually. Was going to upgrade hers for 16's till I realised how much the 16's go for. Easier to stay with 15's is only her work horse. Cheaper tyres. Read it right.
