Picked these up last week ( I dont need them as I have the chrome/silver LE ones on mine at present) but they were too cheap too turn down.

Apart from the fact they've been powdercoated white, the tyres on them arent great, 1mm on the rears and about 3mm on the fronts.

So question is,

get them refurbed as is, and sell on as needing new rubber?
or
get the tyres taken off and refurb and sell as rims only?

I did think about getting new rubber, but once that cost is taken into account, I doubt I'll make anything on them.

Answers on a postcard..Smile

Use them as winters so you don't wreck your nice ones? Would mean new tyres though

Did think of that, but I have my eye on a set of 18's- with currents being my winter tyres (full Dunlops with 6mm tread)...

I would sell them as they are with the tyres.

If they don't want them then they can get rid
