Kyle_R Posted June 1, 2013 Share Posted June 1, 2013 Hey people I got a chance of some of these wheels in the bronze finish there 15s 4x100 they are correct fit for a gt/glanza there in good condition no kerbing etc. what sorta price should I consider paying for them I know the guy and he will lower the price I have to make a offer on them tho. I need a rough idea of what there worth Quote Link to post Share on other sites
daniel_g Posted June 1, 2013 Share Posted June 1, 2013 If it was me, I'd happily pay 400-500 for them. But folk will be forever saying, 'nice rota grids mate' which would really annoy me haha, but that might not happen lol. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Kyle_R Posted June 1, 2013 Author Share Posted June 1, 2013 Haha I know what you mean it's a good job they still got the rays engineering and volk stickers on them. He wants around 1k for them and just been looking. And they seem to go for that sort of figure. So would anyone else other than me offer £800 for them Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Amjad Posted June 1, 2013 Share Posted June 1, 2013 Are they 6.5J or 7J? I'd say £400 if they're in good condition with tyres and perhaps £500 if they have a good brand and tyre life on them Quote Link to post Share on other sites
daniel_g Posted June 1, 2013 Share Posted June 1, 2013 I wouldn't pay a grand but i have seen a few up for that price and they never sell, or take ages to. There was a set on here for sale, the ad was bumped every other day and the price was dropped to around the 400+ mark before they sold. They did require a refurbish though. Its up to yourself really, pay what you want to pay. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Kyle_R Posted June 1, 2013 Author Share Posted June 1, 2013 They are 6.5j with parada spec 2s with loads of tread. I really like the wheels but I don't wanna get mugged off with the price Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Amjad Posted June 1, 2013 Share Posted June 1, 2013 I'd go £450-£500 max Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Kyle_R Posted June 1, 2013 Author Share Posted June 1, 2013 Cheers chaps ill probs leave them then tbh as there not worth what he's asking for them. So I got a factory green mk2 gt (yh the rare colour) what wheels would you lot go for. I would go 13s but it would be compomotive fives. Or 15s but there's so many wheels out there I like and want it to stand out and show its had money spent. As it will eventually be fully forged and about 300bhp but staying as a road car Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Kyle_R Posted June 1, 2013 Author Share Posted June 1, 2013 Maybe 15x8 grid v's in neo chrome? Quote Link to post Share on other sites
daniel_g Posted June 1, 2013 Share Posted June 1, 2013 I love that green colour the MK2 GT came in, so rare aswell. Theres a lovely set of Advan RG 14'' though on here for sale. Only issue may be break clearance if youre gonna be running 300+ bhp. because you'll be wanting a larger break setup than stock i assume.*Brake Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Kyle_R Posted June 1, 2013 Author Share Posted June 1, 2013 Yh brakes are a must I'm at around 180-200 bhp ATM and brakes are on the list. On my daily (golf gti turbo) I upgraded straight away from 288mm to 312mm tt brakes before I did anything. And that's the only reason I'm thinking of 15x8 grid vs in neo chrome but thinking is 8js to wide :/ arghhhhhh so many choices Quote Link to post Share on other sites

MARC MOSS Posted June 1, 2013 Share Posted June 1, 2013 Maybe 15x8 grid v's in neo chrome?Gay comment he's talking real wheels here650 max if they mint mate 6.5x15 is a weak size but they hold proper Jdm points and will fit your car well Quote Link to post Share on other sites

And that's mates rates he wants a grand. I do like the neo chrome grid vs tho. Think they will suit the green gt Quote Link to post Share on other sites
MARC MOSS Posted June 1, 2013 Share Posted June 1, 2013 If it's only the look u want then go for theR@T#'s lol Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Kyle_R Posted June 1, 2013 Author Share Posted June 1, 2013 (edited) Well it's staying a road car (love it to much to take her on track and thrash it) But I will have a play when it's 300+bhp not that I will need it but its just nice to have it should I want it. It's a tough choice I like the te37s but there £800. And the Rotas are basically a fake te37 with a dish but the colour is sexual and only around the £650 mark so it's to tough to call ATM :@ grrrrr. Also I only live a few miles from Combe so it may see a track day but never driven hard Edited June 1, 2013 by Kyle_R Quote Link to post Share on other sites
daniel_g Posted June 1, 2013 Share Posted June 1, 2013 Sweary word haha ^^ I cant say anything, im running homo momos. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Kyle_R Posted June 1, 2013 Author Share Posted June 1, 2013 By all means tho if I can find a decent set of Jdm wheels and find a place that can neo chrome I will avoid the Rotas but there the only 1st who do the finish and I love it Quote Link to post Share on other sites
daniel_g Posted June 1, 2013 Share Posted June 1, 2013 Its a lovely colour that neo chrome, i heard there was a couple month waiting list for them though ? Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Kyle_R Posted June 1, 2013 Author Share Posted June 1, 2013 Yh 2-3 months Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Kyle_R Posted June 1, 2013 Author Share Posted June 1, 2013 But I read that they will put the neo chrome finish on any of there wheels for £100+vat on top. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
MARC MOSS Posted June 1, 2013 Share Posted June 1, 2013 Just get on track and thrash the pants out of your car... Rotas are great track wheels cheap but good working shit but and u can replace them easy Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Kyle_R Posted June 1, 2013 Author Share Posted June 1, 2013 Yh but if I get it wrong and she gets hurt I will actually cry. I built her from a shell and put a lot of money time blood sweat tears and a lot of swearing at it in the 2 years I've had it. It's my baby I could never replace it. Maybe get another gt to hammer round a track tho ;) just not my baby Quote Link to post Share on other sites
