Only one has been slightly scuffed. The rest have just got slight corrosion of the paint job from when they were refurbed a few years back likley caused by acid wheel cleaners. They actually look worse that what they are as they haven't been cleaned in 2 years. Seems to be where the screws are for the split rims so some kind of different alloy that's probably mixed.

I am ideally looking to sell as a set. All perfect working condition. As in no flat spots or major damage.

£400 - open to offers but apparently these are worth £130-£170 per alloy regardless of condition according to a quick browse on ebay.

All 4 tyres are legal. 1 only has a few thousand miles left the others likley can be used for quite a while yet.

These are still being used on the car but I'll be taking them off as soon as my brakes have been refurbished and refreshed.

Update:
I have now cleaned the wheels. this wasn't an extensive clean either. simply bilt hamber auto wheels then snow foam then rinse off. never used a brush and they look 100 times better.

I have taken 2 pics of each wheel. Based in Glasgow and collection preferred or buyer can arrange a courier at own expense. I won't be able to package them so courier has to collect as they are.
 
On the off chance I don’t suppose you would be happy to sell just one wheel?

Doesn't really make sense to sell one would make it nigh on impossible to sell the other three.

It would have to be for a good price to make all the hassle worth it of selling them all individually and then at that point why don't you just buy all 4 so you have spares in case one is damaged again in future?

Completely understand where you a coming from, and I agree with your point of buying four, my reason being I simply do not have the space l, although I may have to have a rethink if I cannot get a single one

Yeah I can see it from your point of view you only need one but selling these individually is going to take much longer than just selling all 4 in one go and then I have to deal with 4 different sales and 4 different parcels unless some collect. I'm trying to look for as hassle free sale as possible. One of the fronts has a brand new tyre maybe done 1000 miles on it. It's a brand name too I think Dunlop. I had a flat and that's all the garage had that would fit. I cleaned the wheels up last weekend they look a lot better just a tiny bit of corrosion on the paint on some of them which is normal where they split the rims. I'll get new pictures up soon hopefully
 
Is my asking price too high or simply demand on the forum too low?

I don't do Facebook so not listed on there.

Tempted to put them on eBay collection only and see if I get any offers.

That is absolute cobblers, I’m afraid. People like Simon Ireland on Facebook do fully refurbed sets of 108s with tires for what you’re asking sometimes. They are not a rare, or particularly sought after, wheel these days.

I was going off of eBay for that. Obviously this guy on Facebook is under cutting eBay.
 
A set of 108's that need a refurb are never an easy sell as they are more expensive to do than a standard set. Add to that you've got 3 different brands of tyre and you're really going to struggle. I could be wrong but it looks like 1 runflat and 3 non runflat!

If you manage more than £200 I'd say you were doing OK.

I have no idea on the tyres as 3 of them were from the previous owner. The 1 I replaced was because I found a screw in my tyre before i was about to embark on a 400 mile one way journey and took the only tyre they had in stock which fitted which was the Dunlop. The rest were previous owner and ditch finders.

Looks like these will be going on eBay. They don't need a refurb tbh they look better than most people's alloys now they have been half cleaned
