I may be looking to sell my wheels in the near future. The question is what are they worth. They need refurbed and look like they have been in the past as they have no polished rims. A couple of chips about them and general poor finish. The rears of them are pretty pitted aswell. They would need bead or sand blasted in order to make them pristine again. On an upnote they are genuine amg wheels and have no major chunks/chips and 2 brand new tyres on the front and the rears have maybe 2-3k left in them.

From my experience with OZ wheels on my Lotus, I would be very cautious. My wheels look pristine, but one wouldn't balance properly. I bought a used one from a Club Lotus member and it too looked pristine, but was worse than mine! A new one sorted out my problem.
Personally, I would avoid anything with dings and chips on a performance motor. All the professionals bin anything even slightly dodgy.

cheers that'll help with my sale if I go ahead with it :lol:

I have seen each of them on the balancing machine and none are buckled, I have also been very honest in the description these wheels are far from mint!
