Question Value of 6x16's

I'm trying to decide what to do with the 6's I just took off to replace with polished 7's (with polished 8's on the rear) Are the 6's worth just keeping for any reason ( I was offered $85 each for them they have descent tires)
I will probably keep the 7's in any case

I think they are worth $100 - $150 each. Not sure what the tires add, usally not much. Might be better to sell the set, I think you get a little more. The 6s are valuable for people upgrading to 16s and for making custom 17s.

Just sold a set of polished 6's for $400. At the time I thought I sold them too cheap. . . And still do.

As with anything.. It depends.

If they are nasty you would be lucky to get $50 each! If they are perfect then more of course.

I guess they are standard polish lip with black centers? Any "rash"?

Plain black 6" (whether 15 or 16) Fuchs are not exactly rare. That being said I would think anywhere from 75-125 for a normal used clean wheel. A little higher if perfect... Much higher if polished (read not chromed).

One other problem is that there are fake Fuchs that I think cheapen the 6" widths... After all most 911 speed freaks want the 7/8 setup or 7/9s.

My $.02 and good luck,
