Best way to sell oem CHs - one is cracked
« on: March 02, 2014, 05:21:20 pm »
looking for some advice here. I bought a set of OEM Audi 8x18 ET42 CH wheels and found that one was cracked. Im now wondering whats the best way to sell them as I no longer have the car. The wheels need refurbed and cost me £350. They are passable but someone has painted them before and not done a great job

genuinely not sure what to do, they are little use to me and obviously Im going to take a hit on them but would like to minimise that.

Thanks for any advice.

I would sell them as they are but make it crystal clear there is a crack. I would feel happier knowing who has repaired it, rather than taking someone elses word its been done to a good standard

Yeah id also leave it for someone else to do, but all depends how bad the crack is? If it's bad I wouldn't bother repairing it and just sell the three wheels.
