Black gloss 296 alloys & tyres

[pbr67_zed]

Set of genuine 296 alloys in gloss black.

Fronts - 19x8J ET 29
Rears 19x9J ET40

Currently shod in nearly new Bridgestone RE050A runflats all round, 225/35 on the front and 255/30 on the rear.

Wheels are in reasonable nick, but could probably do with some work to bring them up to scratch. There are a few nicks and dinks, but nothing major. However, one of the rears has been welded in the past (before I bought the car) and has another small crack in it, but it does hold pressure.

Tyres are in excellent condition and all have a good 6-7mm of tread left on them. Brand new from Camskill these alone would cost over £500.

Would prefer to sell them in one go, but up for negotiation if anyone wants wheels without tyres, or vice versa.

Looking for around £700 for the lot. Prefer buyer to collect from CB6 (Ely, Cambs) area, but happy to travel 50 miles or so to meet, or courier at buyers cost.

OK, 4 days on and over 100 views without any replies, just wondering if I've pitched these right. Many questions going through my mind right now:

1. Am I asking too much for them?
2. Is the asking price about right, just a question of waiting for the right person?
3. Would I bet better splitting rims and tyres and selling separately, given the combo of 296's + run-flats is ..... problematic!
4. Would the rims be more attractive if they were refurbed back to their original colour?
5. Should I junk the cracked rear, and sell the good rear separately from the fronts?

I’d say they were to expensive, if the crack was repaired you might get closer to your ask but even that would be a struggle-possibly sub £600 imho :?

The cracked alloy will certainly be putting off some people. To help avoid more cracks in the future, the tyres have to go.

So without trying to sound harsh, you’re effectively selling a set of alloys with no tyres and a crack in one of the rears. Plus many folk on here wouldn’t go near run flats on these cars.

I would suggest splitting and selling the run flats on eBay seperately.

Way too expensive for cracked wheels. Cracks limit your audience by 80 percent in my experience. Need to be 300 absolute max

Until you go into settings and fiddle about with the timezone stuff, dates and times don't show. Never had this on other forums using (AFAIK) the same software
