Going rate for late 930 Fuchs or should I keep them?

What's the going rate for very nice set of fuchs from an 86 930? I don't think that my wife will let me keep them in the garage although I'd rather keep them. They are in exceptional shape except a very minor curb rash on one wheel. Ideas? Opinions?

Keep em, if you have a mans room or office, stack them up, 2 at a time, get a pieve of round glass & use them as end tables.

wives just don't need to know everything.

2 things a wife should never do: Tell me anything about MY garage & give an opinion of what I should or should not do.

Sorry, but I run my household and I do not believe in equal rights for men and women. Old fashioned and will be that way until I die.

It doesn't work that way around here...plus we're in the process of building a house, so space in our present place is at a premium...I already have a couple of extra sets of winter wheels for my DD and her car so that would make twelve rims/tires...
I just bought a set of Ruf Speedlines that will be going on the car shortly so...is it worth selling them? Do they command anything worthwhile? I am thinking that the proceeds could be used towards buying Ruf fenders (at 5000 for the set ) or a nice set of replicas/paint/fit. Anyhow...thanks for the opinions so far.

If they are 7 and 8 x 16's they should be worth at least $1,000 plus and if they are 7 and 9 x 16's they are worth at least $1,500 plus. This is just a ballpark estimate in case you do sell. Prices also depend on the economy and possibly the area you live in.

I was offered a set of 7 and 8 x 16's a few weeks ago for $1,000.

I hope that helps a little on your question.

A set that needs redone usually run @ 1200 and those that are nice seem to go @ 1800 if your talking about 7s and 9 x16s

If you don't want to sell, rent a small storage compartment till you move.

the car WILL feel different when you go from the light fuchs to the weigh a ton rufs, so hang onto them for a bit.
