How much do these wheels go for?

The ones at the very bottom. I was wondering how much do they go for in great condition. I was also wondering if it would be cheaper to find them in decent condition and had them redone. Thanks

they are usually cheap, i assume you are looking for the 16" ones? It will be hard to find a perfect set, so if you can get a set dirt cheap and spend some bucks on refinishing, you will be happiest i think.

Do you know around how much I should expect? I don't want to buy them and get ripped ya know? Another thing is where can I find out the years and history behind that style and how much would it be to refinish them?

Search google for companies that refinish, call and ask. I am selling my set for $50. Search and you will find a set. Have seen a few at the junkyards.

no one will be able to tell you that. you need to find a company that offers this service and see what they charge. Make your decision based on that.

Re: How much do these wheels go for?
And until you have found the wheel that you want, you cannot get a repair price because they have to see it to quote it, other than 'It has zero physical damage, but needs paint/powdercoat/clearcoat."/whatever you are wanting on it. I have $1000 in just my rear 2 wheels which most will say is too much, but they are exactly what I wanted after I had them powder coated, polished & widened. Joined: Nov 2010

Re: How much do these wheels go for?
The set your looking at,If they were totally refinished, could cost you at least $500.00 for the set,in disrepair you could buy them dirt cheep.I just bought a set of red cross lace wheels(need to be refinished) for $200.00,now comes the cost.
$200.00--Wheels
$29.00--old wheels dismounted & tire recycle all four
$125.00 ea.for refinishing & paint and polish $500.00
$25.00 ea.to dismount tires from the other wheels & mount & balance on the new wheels $100.00
So now the cost is $829.00,so that should give you a general idea of the cost involved with getting into wheels.
I could have just bought a set that was already finish,I chose this way because I didn't want to get involved with all the shipping crap.
