There mine, I want to sell them and not sure what is a fair price to ask.

The front wheel is excellent and tire (84 R tead pattern , nanco tire) usable but at 40% approx, outside rear (2nd pic) that you see is the "worst" one. The other rear one just has gold scuffs on rim edge but no dents. Both insides (4th pic) are about the same.

Rear tires (Pro Wedge 2's) were not used much at all, as you can see.

$150 ?

150 for all? for the right person yea, but if you use ebay right now its allittle slow so you may not get it also the shipping would suck on all that all points to keep an eye out for.

Well I figure with winter (snow riding) coming up, now would be the best time to sell them ?

Yea, 150 for all what you see .Rear tires are worth 40 bucks a piece aren't they?

That would mean 70 for the wheels and hubs, that would certainly be fair, not ?

I'm not either, that's why there off!

If it was a all black machine (frame,plastic, etc.....) the gold swingarm and wheels would look OH SO NICE but on red, naaaah, doesn't do a thing for me although I painted them gold on SX, just to be different but now I would rather have them silver (not that the gold looks bad though) again:rolleyes:, oh well.

cold foaming oven cleaner will take the gold off the wheels and then you can polish them. i did a set on my banshee, it workes pretty well

I never understood why people don't like the gold wheels. I think they look awesome! Especially on a machine with white plastic. Anyways, you otta do well with those on ebay right now I think. Honestly though, do a no reserve auction and you'll get what you want out of them. IMO

They look OK and great on some machines but I think the R's look far better with silver, take for instance dammits trike, that thing looks great with shiny chrome or aluminum or what ever they are wheels.

The 81-84 wheels are only 8 inchers too, they just look so small.

No way I will ever do a none reserve though, I have got things myself that should have went much higher and didn't, great for me but not for seller.

I suppose, but the reason I said that is because of what I've seen wheels and tires going for right now on ebay. I just look for trends and patterns in all of it. You are right about winter approaching and helping the sale. But I can see your point about the no reserve.

Don't get me wrong, a reserve can really help a seller a lot of times with it going way higher then they expected but I don't like to gamble on it, I'd be sweatin it out for 7 days! :lol:

.........and even with a reserve, it could still go a lot higher I imagine if the reserve is reasonable to begin with, which I think a 150 is.

I LOVE the look of the gold, to each his own. As far as I'm concerned, EBAY is a buyers market right now. Everyone is too broke to bid, I have found lots of bargains lately.....

Wish I could say the same. I'm sick of getting outbid by zero feedback bidders! And Huffa, $150 is definitely reasonable in my opinion.

I love the gold rims! Will they bolt to the 350X? The one I'm getting already has a gold front rim... HMMM?

Wanna trade for a tri moto 175? :lol: :welcome:
