Default How much would my standard classic shape alloys be worth?

They are 205 / 45 / 16" and the tyres are brand new!

Anyone have an idea as to what they are worth?

THanks

I've got a set in the garage of my MY00 Scoob, kept them after I upgraded to 17s for doing track days. So for that purpose they are useful, as mentioned the tyre are probably worth more than the alloys so if they are a decent set then yeah £200 is not unreasonable.

Mine have Goodyears on that are nearly down to the wear markers so I'd have thought I'd be lucky to get £50 for them. Not sure what the scrap value of aluminium is though?

I have two sets that I bought (don't ask why! ), paid 50 for a set with tyres, 30 without. Tyres are not great on the 50 quid set.
They are just wheels that you will struggle to shift for near 200 quid, my opinion.
No one really wants them, as people tend to go for 17's on their Scoobs.
Good luck though, but I doubt if you'd sell them well on here, better off ebay, local papers etc.
I scrap alot of alloys, going rate round my way tends to be 4-5 quid each.

No what i'm saying is if he has a decent make of tyres with good tread he'll have no problems selling them

When i sold mine i got 200 quid easy.
